1/100 VF-25F MESSIAH VALKYRIE "RANKA LEE" WIP

Here's a WIP... can't do photoshoots for the gallery now...
maybe on the weekend...

 

stickers are a downer...

I have also painted both VF pilots at last using Vallejo Paints...

I made one red with yellows just to have variety...

After building the two VF-25s, I'm thinking of getting another and paint it realistically since I enjoyed painting the pilots... wondering how much more fun it is to paint a whole model with over weathering...

Anyways...

That's one down, too many to go...

1/100 VF-25F MESSIAH VALKYRIE "SHERYL NOME"

Got this kit from my supplier about a month ago along with MG NT-1 Gundam Alex, this is the only kit at the moment which I finished building straight, within a day, which is relatively fast compared to most of my other projects which lasts about 9 months or so...

Though I hate stickers, and this kit has large ones, I had no choice but to use them since I can't find any third party waterslides anywhere, and Bandai wouldn't release any...

Gallery and wips after the jump break...

Still hasn't painted the pilot...

 

Photography: +100 XP

Engines were painted with my usual "50%German Gray+10%Silver+40%Gunmetal" mix, then drybrushed with silver, then applied black enamel wash...

Applied enamel red for panel lines without gloss coating underneath... luckily nothing broke... I figured that the pieces were thick enough to withstand the brittleness... just don't flood the whole thing in enamel...

Painted the battroid's head's antenas with silver then applied black enamel washes...

Then stickers...

I actually snapfitted the MG Alex before doing this one, I just need to snap fit the Chobam Armors then post them to the gallery... slightly a good kit but with ancient Bandai Tech...

I just finished watching:
