Q&DWIP 4 - HG Astraea Type-F: Alternate Configuration

Thanks for all of your comments on the colour scheme everyone. Take a look at this set up and see how it compares. After seeing it with the Exia parts on I have to say that I like it a bit more and will probably just remove a lot of the white and give it an 'Aqua' look. I currently have it displayed in my room like this so I'm think I'm just going to clean this up, repaint in the same colours and detail it. Man there are so many things you can do with this kit! I removed the Exia shoulder and the 2x beam sabres and traded them in for the GN Short and Long swords on the hips. Each hip can hold two weapons now! That four all together. Man it's just too strong! Love this thing. Take a look.


Strange. I actually want to work on this a bit more than MGIJ but... priorities! I suppose I can just continue doing what I've been doing so far and just work on multiple kits at once.

  1. Man, I want this kit more and more because of your posts, but that Alteisen Progressive version is so paycheck-killingly beautiful... Dangit, this is one of those days where I regret not winning the lottery at least thrice...

  2. fetish for dark colours. thats not inaccurate. im trying to branch out but... its not really me.

    yes the new HG's are amazing! totally worth it and the the loose joint problem can be fixed with a bit of paint.

    and yeah that alteisen certainly looks nice!

  5. This is even more loaded than the first one, though I hate astrea's blocky shoulder pads it freaking fits in with the bulk.

  6. blocky? maybe but they take up way less space than exias.

  7. Damn, this thing has so many weapons, the actual mobile suit is barely visible - from the pics, you could say that the weapons work as an armor too ;)
