RX-78-2 Gundam (RG) A "Sugumi" (simple assembling) Review
("Sumi-Ire" (Groove Inking) and Realistic Decal Section)

This time, we've groove inked (Sumi-ire) the RX-78-2 Gundam (RG), and stuck the realistic decal on.

It has great movement range, so you can enjoy a variety of poses!

How was that?

The tools used for this groove inking and realistic decal section were:

For the groove inking of white parts, we used the

GM02 Gundam Marker (Gray)

For the blue parts, we used the

GM01 Gundam Maker (Blank)

And for others like red and yellow, we used the

GM03 GM03 Gundam Maker (Brown).

Also, you can use the

Gundam Maker Eraser to fix any mistakes.

The Decal is very thin, so it would be good advisable to use tools
such as the

Tweezers For Decals (Hobby Tool)
Finish up by spraying the whole body with a clear matt flat topcoat for completion.

For the length of time taken for completion, the 'Sugumi' (simple construction) took 5h and

'Sumi-ire' (groove inking) + Realistic Decal took 5h, for a total of roughly 10 hours.

It really isn't for the beginners, but it sure is worth building.

How about giving it a challenge during the vacation?
