My first gunpla mobile suit. Up til that point I never had though about building my own kit. Wasn't sure how easy/fun it was going to be so decided to start of with something light. Easy kit to assemble, all snap fit pre-coloured plastic. Decided to go the extra mile and spring for a compressor+airbrush, was amazed at how good the results were.
As for the kit itself, it's your standard everyday UC Gundam. The only gimmick is the thruster shield "thingy".

Mobile Suit: AMX 107 - Bawoo
Ah....the 1/144 Bawoo. My second mobile suit, the first I ever painted.
Looking at it, it is actually seems like a giant compared to the Gundams. Painting the shield is still a work in progress, and while I did overshade the mobile suit too much, in the end he got a nice feel to it. As some might know, he comes with the ability to transform into 2 separate ships. The top half isn't so bad, although nothing really noteworthy....and the bottom part...it's just too silly. The word of advice is: "Keep it one piece".
