Build Guide for the HG 1/144 MS-06 Zaku GQ - Core Gunpla Project

The HG 1/144 MS-06 Zaku GQ is designed to be both rewarding and accessible, appealing to hobbyists who like to tweak models or display them straight from the box. The kit combines reliable articulation with precise part separation for clean assembly.

Articulation, balance and detail

Thoughtful joint engineering helps achieve dynamic poses while keeping the model stable on a stand or base. The separated armor sections and head components allow key features like the mono-eye to be emphasised with minimal painting.

Build time and essential supplies

Overall build time is reasonable for most modellers. Recommended supplies include side cutters, a hobby knife, sanding paper or sticks, and optional plastic cement for some customised fits.

Painting workflow and final touches

Simple panel lining and selective painting will make panel details pop. Apply decals carefully and finish with a clear coat to protect the work; for weathering, use washes and dry brushing sparingly.

With a good mix of detail and buildability, the HG 1/144 MS-06 Zaku GQ suits straight builds and modified projects alike, fitting well into any collection.
