This is the first time I've done a black base coat on an MG kit. Based on my experience with the previous Aile Strike, I kept the gradation quite subtle. So, you can't really tell from the photos.
This was my first time building an MG Barbatos, and I was really impressed by the quality of the Gundam Frame.
Also, since the pink parts were clear, I painted them with GX Metal Pink and added a holographic finish on top! I also added metal parts to the shoulders and feet to increase the level of detail.
This was my first time fully painting an MG kit, but I'm very happy with how it turned out! My next project will also be a Barbatos, but with a slightly different style.
