Gundam Astray Orange Frame - "Aurum Citrus"

Gundam Astray Orange Frame - "Aurum Citrus"

The Astray Red Frame is another great gundam model cuz it's an Astray and it has the Gerbera Straight. this guy has pretty good poseability with its katana,beam rifle, and beam sabers. i recommend this model for anyone who just starting out or want to build one.

Since i have the 1/100 version of this model, i decided to change the color scheme of this model into gold/white/orange/silver. it's a bit tricky to make the orange color cuz there is no orange gundam marker (i havent seen one except the "finishing touch one") so i have to mix red and yellow together. in addition, after u get the orange color, its hard to keep the same shade of orange throughout the model. Furthermore, i added some decals from other models (akatsuki). i painted the beam rifle as well using the same color scheme

Overall, im happy with the finish product however the gold marker seems can be rubbed off very easily...well i guess u can see it as a weathering effect =D
