Gundamaniac

I was thinking of calling this Gundam the Absolute Freedom, however since I did just base the color scheme from Keita’s work, it just doesn’t seem right to personally rename the Gundam. so as homage to his artistic work, I’m keeping the name as it is. the “Strike Freedom Zaft White - Kira Yamato Customize”. 


I’m not exactly Finished with the kit yet, there are some unpainted sprue marks I have to clean out. which is one of the problems faced when painting the parts on the runners. ^^; I also haven’t started on the rifles, since I was too lazy to start work with masking tape.

Needless to say, Keita’s White Stirke Freedom kicks seven billion shades of crap off my inept excuse of a copy. however I’m still happy how the kit turned out. I personally prefer this color scheme on the Strike Freedom as compared to the original white and blue. As most kids would probably think, good guys should always wear white. Unless of course you’re one of Darth Vaders Stormtroopers. ^^ no offence meant to Danny of course. ^^;

Though the truth is I thought that the 1/100 scale Strike Freedom would be a bit bigger. However regardless of my preconceptual notions on the Strike Freedom’s size. the great thing about the it is that the mobile suit design leaves little room for improvements. although this would probably be a counter advantage for people itching to use their scratch building skills. but for people like me whose scratch building skill are limited to paper boats and airplanes, all I can say is that the Strike Freedom would still look cool enough even without any form of customization, plus it was actually a fun kit to build. A MG kit worth buying for any Seed or non-Seed Gundam fans.
