VF-0A/S » Battroids + Reactive Armor

About The Build »

I've been wanting to do a pair of VF-) battorids for a while now. The reactive armored version is quite cool looking and far sleeker than it's later VF-1 incarnation. Not much to write about here. OOB-builds except for replacing the thrusters with MechaSkunk T-Small aluminum bells which were a perfect fit. Metals are Alclad II lacquers, other paint is Tamiya. The only other notable item is that I weathered these kits for once. All I did was the fading/discoloration technique, but it mottled the surface and brought out the panel lines quite necely. It's a nice light weathering which is perfect for an aircraft/mecha.
