Hello Gundam readers! It has been some crazy few weeks but I’m back to show my recent build, the HGDR 1/144 Gundam Aegis Knight from season 2 of the series Gundam Build Divers Re:Rise!Â
I saw this kit at a local anime store in Atlanta so I’ve decided to get it and see how “solid” this is.
Now this was just a regular straight build so I didn’t do too much on this kit. I’ve painted the areas that required stickers and also some of the nub marks.
The colors I used to paint the Gundam Aegis Knight are:
Gundam Marker – Green (For the eyes and head cams)
Gundam Marker – Black (For the chest)
Gundam Marker – Dark Grey (For nub marks on the feet, knees, and elbow joints)
Gundam Marker Liner Pen – Black
I had to sand some of the yellow beam effect parts as it didn’t want to fit for the “Hyper Beam Saber” weapon properly.
I also used clear finger nail polish on the pegs of the beam blades as they were to loose to stay on the other yellow effect parts.
But overall The HG Gundam Aegis Knight was a fun straight build. I loved the different transformation modes it has (such as the “high-speed cruising mode” and “combat assault mode”) and the posability in my view was decent.Â
However the feet and shoulders are a little flimsy and the beam effect parts didn’t really seem to fit well on this kit. But still the Gundam Aegis Knight is a fun kit and a good addition to my building collection!Â
So until next time everyone have a great and take it easy!
