White Devil Progress 2

This bastard is almost complete.
Decided to go ahead and work on the shield too. I used Tamiya Blue Violet on the backpack and feet and the overall combination with the white and clear red is lovely. Unfortunately, I had to redo the feet TWICE, as the damn paint ended up cracking for some strange reason, so the result was not as clean as I would have liked but I can live with that.
Since the entire thing was coated with Pearl Clear, the damn model simply reeks of chemicals, so I'm gonna leave it immobile for the next couple of days until the stuff completely cures.
Now I only have to work on the beam magnum and wait for the missing pieces I lost to arrive for this kit to be ready to go.

The violet is looking good! Shame i'm in college, couldn't work on my titanium finish sinanju MG.

Now I'm curious on what you will do on HGUC Sinanju.

Kevin: basically:
- All the red armor will be painted silver first.
- 2 coats of clear red will follow.
- All the damn trims in the chest, sleeves and knees will be painted gold (which type of paint I will use I don't know yet)
- Apply some Sinanju markings I ordered a while back.
- Finish up with gloss topcoat.
At least that's the idea, but I'm sure the second step will be fucking long.
