RG Gundam Epyon (with decals)

I finally finished putting the decals on my RG Gundam Epyon. Even with the matte top coat I've flaked off two of them, but I'm still happy with the result. I love this kit.

This looks sick, I like that matte look. What kind of paint and top coat do you use? I'm actually excited for winter so that I can hibernate and do some building

[–] augus@ohai.social 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

@jodanlime No paint except panel lining. For the top coat I used two airbrushed coats of Vallejo Matt Varnish.

I usually only build UC kits, but I might have to make an exception for a few Gundam Wing models.

@jodanlime The RG Wing Gundam (TV) is pretty highly regarded from what I understand, and in addition to this Epyon I've also built the RG Wing Gundam Zero EW and had a lot of fun despite the issues inherent in early Real Grade kits.

I have an RG Sazabi and Nu Gundam that I want to build this winter so I can do some painting in the spring. After that I have an MG RX78 that I won in a drawing at the local shop that needs some love.

@jodanlime I think the RG Sazabi will be the next kit I hunt down, since I already managed to find a discounted RG Zeong. I hope you have fun with each of those kits!
