The Wing Gundam Ver. Ka., as its name implied, is a design by non other than Katoki Hajime sensei (Japanese word for teacher). I'm a big fan of the Wing series designed by him, and since Bandai and Gundam Ace are re-introducing this series anew, the rest of the redesigned Wing series protagonists' Gundams are going to be produced as well.
This particular MG Wing Ver. Ka was produced by Bandai back in 2003, thus therefore it is not as advanced as the latest MG, but still I really like it. There are quite a lot of works to be done on this one, and I've also being trying to apply a few tricks that I tried to learn, i.e. scribing extra panel lines. Without further ado, here are some of the snapshots of this finished kit.
I must admit that this is not an easy kit to do because it has quite a number of parting lines that need to be dealt with. Plus, the colourful wings are the other difficult parts to deal with because there are lot's of masking need to be done in order to get the the parts coloured. This is where all the funs began because this is the first time I tried to do part separation, of which it is quite a success.
The other difficult task is the application of water slide decal. Since this is Katoki designed mech, and Katoki has a tendency to design really nice marking (in huge volume), it took me quite a while to apply those decals in various places. Next time I'd need to think twice before working on a Katoki designed mech.
