Comment
My painting bugs is biting me thus I have sprayed 2 Master Grade in one go and now this
garage kit is done in about a week plus time. Painting is done in one and a half day time
but most of the time is spent on test fitting and puttying this kit.
I bought this kit online from e2046. The casting of this kit is somewhat old and has tons
of seam lines and fitting problems. Moreover, her pose making the figure to stand steadily
is tough. The kit portrayed Rei in her swimsuit thus she has a lot of expose skin. Painting
the correct flesh tone is another tough part. The last challenge is painting her umbrella in
alternating red and white. I could not think of any other alternative other than relying on
my pitiful hand brushing skill.
Comparing to my first kit (Takai Sayaka Flora Mint), this kit is much more challenging to
build.
Construction Note
For this kit, I took tons of pictures and I could not fit all those step onto this page.
So, I split it out into a separate article located at "The
Making Of Rei Ayanami Race Queen".
