    Hello!
    I got this Gundam for Christmas, and I thought it looked a little bland, so I got out a paint marker and did some work on it. It took 10 hours total, and I think it looks pretty good, especially as this is my first custom anything. Hopefully you guys like it, and I've got a custom Sword Impulse coming soon!

    Also, these pictures are crap, and better ones will be uploaded.

    The black provides a nice contrast for the red. Good job, man.

    Simple yet elegant, good eye on breaking up those parts. If that paint pen starts to bleed more red, hit it with another coat and seal it with a clear coat. Flat or semi-gloss depending on your shinny preference :)

    I agree with Honorbound, the black stands out really good. It goes along with the red. Well done.
