Thanks goes out to ole mate sandboarder for this kit, was a good way to get me out of being in the downs and get out of the slump I was in.

Used these paints.

Mr Metal Chrome on the weapons. Its like the old model master metalizer paints you can buff to enhance a shine.
AK extreme titanium for the frame parts.
AK extreme stainless for the hands
Tamiya Titanium sliver for the hand backs, the back pack and the back pieces on the bazooka canon weapon.

And used some of this on the thrusters on the back pack, should have let it set a bit longer got damaged due to handling.

Cheers dude much appreciated the encouragement to build it too.

Hell yeah!! That’s built up awesome! Good variety of metallic details and finishes while the clear colours really pop against the clear white.

Cheer's mate's, it's a cool looking thing for sure. Good easy fun to paint and build.

How awesome and challenging would it be to do a PG with the clear armour. Check out the frame detail
