This was back last year. I took a EG RX-78-2 and used hobby mio lacquer paints through my new iwata airbrush. Overall pretty happy. Used knight gold and mecha “black” plus red on the eyes. Only complaint was the black was purple. Idk who at hobby mio decided THIS was “mecha black”

    Lol that’s a shame about the color mixup, reminds me of my not-yet painted GM ground type that’s like robins egg blue instead of white for some reason.

      Yeah, I was a bit bummed tbh. But after some time I actually like it. Makes it a bit more unique imo

        I think the colors compliment each other nicely. Well done! As someone else mentioned, pure black tends to lose details.
