Nice progress on this piece. How's the poseability on it then? I heard that some Hasegawa kits are a bit lacking in that department.

It's pretty good. The only parts of this kit that aren't articulated are the lower neck, the torso (The waist has a ball joint though), and the hands.
Out of box, It's very flimsy. Lots of small parts keep falling off like its mind booster backpack, but after I sealed all the parts, It became very sturdy.

You guys make me feel like a FUDOH. High capacity, low output.

And i feel like a genbusted and exhausted GBG-1000. After blitzing through last December's marathon, i don't feel like i have any real energy to go near any kits for the moment.

J.E, That Shadow Temjin is just one kit, and It's actually something I just revived after I put it on hold for more than four years.
I'm still currently masking the parts for painting but I probably won't be able to place the decals on it anytime soon.
Fox needs a generator tune-up. :3

Update time~!
Masked the upper torso and painted the details Red.
Red is a nice color. ^__^v
Red parts painted and masking tape removed.
Panel lined with a modified .01 Artline pen
Upper torso Assembly:
Still unfinished. I need to spray all the black metallic parts (Primer) with Misty Grey.
when that's done, I'll move on to the other parts.
All the joints sprayed with Grey and panels lined with Artline Black. :3
That's it for updates. I'm currently stuck in the office without any masking tape so I'll have to wait until the mall opens before I can get any more work done on this kit. <:3

It's almost as detailed as an AC, but in a different way.

Red, silver and black looks so sweet! Nice amount of details ye got there. If i didn't know better, i would've said they were parts from a fifth or sixth generation HG kit.

@J.E. Yup. Makes you wonder what Katoki was smoking when he designed the Virtual On Marz series. So many ovals!
And this kit really feels like an HG with the lack of poseability. I better not screw up the decals when I finish painting this thing. <:3

A fudoh is still useful. A
RAGORA is so cool, it's useless.

LOL at starry-eyed Chowder. Don't eat my project though.
Another small update. Was able to paint a few details last night.
Painted some masked parts with Red, re-masked it, and then painted the other parts Misty Grey.
Partial assembly. I'm at about 65% done. <:3
Right now, the metallic black looks much better than the Misty Grey color. I might reconsider leaving some parts of the kit black just because it looks good. XD
Back to masking details again. :3
