Real Grade 1/144 - MS-06S Zaku II "Char Aznable Custom" - Completed -

Real Grade 1/144 - MS-06S Zaku II "Char Aznable Custom" - Completed 1 -

Completed the "Red Comet" Char Aznables Custom MS-06S Zaku II, very quick build this one with the only mods done being sharpening off the antenna and the spikes on the shoulder guard.

All weathered which i think tones down the pink somewhat, tried adding oil drips from screw holes and the like. The more i look at this the more i think its my favourite RG so far.

Wanted a bigger Char logo than the one supplied with the RG decals on the shield, going to use this same decal pattern on all my future zakus which is only a little different from the instructions but i think more formal.

Only real red on the "Red Comet" is the backpack.

This is my 3rd Zaku, 5th RG and second time modelling the this Chars Zaku II, originally went with a very red paint scheme but was not happy with it so repainted it in a more anime accurate colours (man salmon).

really nice work there !!! good balance between the rather simplistic old anime design and the modern mecha concept... i couldn’t avoid to notice that the first pic has the same "frame" than the blog’s header... =)

Beautiful! There's so much more details added to the already detailed RG. Good posing and well chosen backdrop pal!
