Still planning on painting the Milliardo figure that came with it for the shelf, but this is, essentially a straight build despite plans to upgrade it due to getting frustrated with shipping...was supposed to get a Balden Arms kit for the shoulders and elbows, and was hunting for a kit to replace the hips with in order to make it more of a modern feeling kit with poseability.

I did find out from a friend that the knee polycap joints shaped like the number 8 can be, relatively, easily replaced with the knee joints from the EG Gramps and Strike...due to a friend commenting on it after I'd finished gotten quite a bit past that with the parts glued.

Decided not to paint the active sword since it wouldn't look right on the shelf...and really wish there was a retracted version of the heat whip.

The hands are from some of the modern HGAC kits, though I needed to bulk the balls for their ball joints up with a combo of nail polish and paper (I'd tried the square hands Option Kit, but despite the hands being in different sizes, the ball joints are the same size which doesn't help...unlike with the Serpent when I needed to swap out its hands)

Painting was a combination of markers and hand painting, though using paint from the markers. Might need to go back with another layer of the metallic green over the eyes on the feet because I can't remember if I'd gone back over them after the flat coat like I did with the other green sensors. The main markers are from the Zeon set with the dark red and both grey's doing the majority of it, yellow and gunmetal from the basic set, and gold from another set (can't remember which) along with a brighter silver that was on the tip of the whip and underneath the metallic green to cover up the base plastic colors.

The yellow was a pain in the rear to get looking right everywhere except the torso for some reason. And if I get around to a second one, I'm going full on metallics for it because of the yellow and white having horrible coverage.

I'd also just gotten the Wing logo as a very late gift from a friend, same one who pointed out about the knees...
