MG FA-78-1 Full Armor Gundam


When it rains it pours! This FA Gundam kit has been out of production for many moons now, I finally saw that the P-Bandai “Blue” version was floating around for the same price so I decided to pick one up for myself. Cue in a commission request and I ended up getting two of these.

The client wanted the original colour scheme with two greens, so I essentially had to “reverse P-Bandai” this kit.

This kit was the first time I also tried documenting my painting process, if you’re interested in watching it please consider becoming a Patron!
