This is the last Macross kit that I have done. It is the VF-25G Messiah, which specializes in long range sniping.
Fighter Mode
The Fighter mode is basically the same as all 3 Messiahs that I did previously, since all of them are made from the same mold. Like the RVF-25, the shield for this kit could be connected to the body without much problem.
Gerwalk Mode
The form is basically the same as all previous Messiah that I did, so nothing much for me to say here.
Battroid Mode
The difference here again is the head. The head design is like the mass produced Valkyrie unit VF-1, but in the Macross Frontier universe, there's only 1 unit of Messiah with this head design - mono-eye with single antenna/vulcan gun on top. Like the RVF-25, the head design has the similar problem: the horn-like shape parts at the lower part of the head that would hinder it from re-positioning into the body with the risk of scratching it, and also the not-too-serious articulation problem much like RVF-25 head.
Experimented Techniques
Basically I tried the same things that I did on all 3 previous Messiah on this kit as well. This time I tried to do the dry brushing again, with this time only on the edge of the inner frame. It turns out quite well as compare to my previous attempt, but the coordination of the color doesn't seems to work that well.
Conclusion
I'm satisfied with the work on this one because not much problem arises. It is truly a conclusion for the Macross kit for now as I mentioned in my previous posting of the other 3 Messiahs because I don't really have the time and concentration to work on this type of model kit.
