HGUC LM312V04 VICTORY GUNDAM

~HGUC LM312V04 ヴィクトリーガンダム~

Photos first, Words later~
FRONT
REAR
Look at how small Victory Gundam is! *Comparing with HG Gundam Age 2
Let's start with some simple poses
Aerial Poses!
Beam Shield!
V Transformation!! Unfortunately this kit can't do that. Haha.
However, it comes with a core fighter. *No painting
Duo Saber!
Only after I taken the previous photo, I realize that the left-right legs are wrong!!
You can notice that the hard-point are facing the inner side in the photos previously.
Anyway, it's just a careless mistake. Haha. So I retook the Front view again.
The unique "fan" saber!! 

Victory Gundam, one of my most favorite Gundam! When I first watched the animation, I was so impressed by the Transformation System. 
Personally, I prefer those MS with complicated Transformation system, such as Zeta, ZZ, Sentinel, V2... and that's a reason why I'm not a big fan of Kyrios, Arios, Harute, Wing, ReZEL...

Back to Plamo, I bought this kit purely for collection purpose. (Favorite kit, obviously.. haha)
No airbrush used. Hand brushed the the blue parts and those grey parts (enamel). Inked the panel lines and some weathering. Sprayed a matt coat and applied stickers for those sensors. .
DONE!!
(Taken with my Xperion)
No cement used, just removed those nub marks, parting lines and trimmed the V-Fin. More info can be found here, if interested.
When I'm building this kit, I was so shocked by how it was designed. As this is my first "New Generation" HG kit, I was once again impressed by Bandai designs. If you are a modeler/collector from the past, you should notice that too. The color separation job is wonderful, you can don't require any masking for a HG kit! As well as the proportion and poseability. It's just a 1/144 HG Kit!!
Well, technology is moving really fast, just look at the history of your phone and you will know.

Conclusion, this is a really nice Plamo. I shall get a second one and convert into Hexa!!
Thanks for Reading!!
