Practical Build Guide for the Guntank Early Type

The HG 1/144 RTX-65 Guntank Early Type recreates the bulky, gun-armed silhouette from Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin in a compact High Grade package. The model balances a robust look with straightforward construction for a satisfying build session.

Standout Elements of the Kit

Rotating turret parts and functional arm joints let you pose the Guntank with realistic intent. Good part division and mould definition help the finished model read well on a shelf without forced painting.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/144
  • Grade: High Grade (HG)
  • Build Level: Normal

A versatile kit for collectors and customisers, the HG Guntank Early Type provides a robust platform for weathering and paint jobs.

Tool Recommendations and Build Difficulty

This kit sits at a moderate difficulty; side cutters, a hobby knife and sanding tools will cover most needs. Test-fitting parts before final assembly helps protect painted surfaces.

Painting and Weathering Suggestions

Use light sanding to remove seam marks and apply panel wash to bring out surface detail. Add decals and a matt or satin topcoat to finish the model.

Yes, the turret is designed for rotation out of the box, although gentle clean-up of joints improves movement.
Decals are standard water-slide or stickers depending on release; with tweezers and a flat brush they sit down cleanly.
Acrylics and lacquers both adhere well after a light wash with isopropyl and mild sanding for primer grip.
Its silhouette and heavy-weapon look make it a solid candidate for small-scale dioramas, especially with weathering and base details.
