Color Guide RX-78 / C.A. Casval's Gundam For Repaint Gundam RX-78-2 Char's Aznable version


RX-78 / C.A. Casval's Gundam is a Gundam with a shape similar to the RX-78-2 piloted by Amuro Ray but with an almost completely red color, typical of Char's Aznable a.k.a Casval Rem Deikun. Many people are interested in this color scheme, so I'm writing it here for that.


RX-78 / C.A. Casval's Gundam

In the alternative timeline, RX-78 / C.A. created by Neo Zeon for Casval Rem Deikun, using technology from the Earth Federation and the Principality of Zeon.

Intended as a symbol for the Newtypes, it has a reddish paint scheme much like the other mobile suits used earlier by Casval.

In addition to the paint scheme, the performance of the Gundam Casval is also matched to Char's Aznable preferences, so that mobility and reaction speed are better than Amuro Ray's original Gundam RX-78-2.

In one of the parallel timelines depicted in Gihren's Greed, Char Aznable returns to his real name Casval Rem Deikun at the end of One Year War.

He then leads a new faction, Neo Zeon, against the Principality of Zeon to realize his Newtype ideals. To that end, the RX-78 / C.A. The Casval Gundam was developed by Neo Zeon for Char as a symbol for Newtypes.


Color Guide RX-78 / C.A. Casval's Gundam

Actually I took the Color Guide for this painting from the manual book Premium Bandai MG 1/100 RX-78 / C.A Casval's Gundam ver. 3.0. And there is a statement, if the name repaint Gunpla which is made from ABS is not recommended because it can damage the plastic itself.

So, I recommend that the repaint is quite careful "and use paint that is safe for ABS plastic or better to wait for the model kit version hehehe wow there will still be a miss color part of the band.



Well, here is the Color Guide that I got. As a material for my paint too, the thing is I like the color.
