Overview of the Bandai Fake nu Gundam Armor HG 1/144 kit

Designed for experienced hobbyists, the Bandai Fake nu Gundam Armor HG 1/144 provides a focused build that highlights precise parts and customising opportunities. Taken from Gundam Build Divers Re:RISE, this kit is rewarding for those who enjoy careful assembly and paintwork. The notes below cover assembly flow and finishing tips.

Quality of moulding and assembly

The kit benefits from clean mould lines and accurate joins, which reduce the need for heavy correction. Colour separation is strong so many panels assemble in the intended tones. The undergating approach helps keep visible surfaces clean after trimming.

Great base for custom work

Advanced modders will find this kit a good platform for experimention. The panel layout and removable sections make it straightforward to test new paint schemes or add detailing, while airbrush-friendly surfaces allow smooth gradients and shading.

Practical building advice

Use 400-grit paper for initial smoothing then 1000-grit for a polished look. Choose a primer rated for ABS to prevent peeling. For multi-part sections such as shoulders, mask carefully and use thin coats to avoid paint pooling and maintain sharp edges.

The Bandai Fake nu Gundam Armor HG 1/144 is a worthwhile build for modellers who enjoy precise assembly and want a solid base for painting and upgrades.
