Master Grade Gundam Unicorn Ver Ka Color Guide

Update: Translated construciton manual of the Master Grade RX-0 Unicorn Gundam ver Ka can be found here.

Am not really familiar nor fond of the design of the Gundam Unicorn. I’m hoping that once the movie comes out it will change my opinion of it. This is in contrast with the Gundam Astay Blue Frame that I had bought without first knowing anything about. Guess I liked the design so much that I didn’t care much for the story. Talk about an easy victim of mass marketing brainwashing… hehehe

PG Strike Gundam Color GuideColor Guide for the Perfect Grade 1/60 Strike Gundam was translated from Japanese to English. I can’t really say much about the Strike Gundam because I’ve had no experience watching the first Gundam Seed series. I’ve watched Gundam Seed Destiny though and found it entertaining.

Would sure love to see though what it feels like to build a perfect grade Gundam. The perfect grade line is said to be the epoch of plamodel construction because of the articulation and sheer amount of parts. Not to mention, I like it also because its a big 1/60 scale model kit.

RX-93-ν2 Hi-Nu Gundam Color Guide
Update (03/30/2010): English Construction Manual of the RX-93 Hi Nu Gundam can be found here.

Amuro Ray’s RX-93 ν2 Hi-Nu Gundam from Beltorchika’s Children is definitely one of my most favorite Gundam Designs with its fins and distinct shade of blue. The Master Grade version of this is definitely out of my reach right now, so I had to settle for the HG version of the Hi-Nu Gundam.

1/72 VF-27 Lucifer Translated Construction Manual

Update (12/21/2009): Japanese to English Translation complete… woohoo!

Bandai 1/72 VF-27 Lucifer from Macross Frontier and piloted by Brera Stern Translated Construction Manual

Just saw the construction manual of the 1/72 VF-27 Lucifer posted at Dalong.net. Couldn’t resist translating it to English for the sake of honing my Japanese skills. Definitely one of the best designs made by Shoji Kawamori for the Macross Frontier series. I just feel that its a nightmare to paint if you don’t have an air brush, given the color mix needed in its color guide.

Kindly read my little disclaimer before using this translated guide. It might not be complete right now, but kindly check back once in a while as I will post the translated pages once I’m done. I also posted before on what the symbols in a Bandai model kit’s manual means.
