Gunpla Custom Build : HG 1/144 Custom Rising Freedom by @itamitech
The HG 1/144 Custom Rising Freedom], masterfully customized by the renowned Gunpla builder @itamitech, stands as an exemplary model of unique modification and intricate detailing.
@itamitech specializes in style adjustments with the goal of making the standing figure look exceptionally cool. By extending the limbs and rearranging the waist armor, the overall appearance became much cleaner.
A weapon was added by @itamitech. They removed the inner wall/saber rack of the waist armor and attached the saber to the top of the armor using a magnet. Additionally, the knee joint was modified to allow for straightening. However, due to the variety of colors in the recent HG model, it wasn't something @itamitech could easily acquire...
For the hand, @itamitech used #ロボマニ Shinkaku Finger 2S, which turned out to be perfect. As for the shield, @itamitech only used one side because it was too thick, but managed to cover the inside somehow.
@itamitech made adjustments to enhance the front appearance, envisioning the impact of the transmission scene at the beginning of the movie. Personally, @itamitech feels that the ability to drop the arms straight down is a significant factor.
The Gunpla also features a built-in LED module that can be switched on with a magnet.
Furthermore, by using floating + SEED action hip joints, @itamitech didn't need to modify the style much, resulting in a thinner appearance. The opening part features a 3mm axis + hole mechanism for easy movement, with the tip thinly covered with a 0.3mm plastic plate to allow insertion of the beam.
The shield generator is coated with pearlized + Ex-cleared Urehiro Prism Pink, although it's small and doesn't have a distinct pearly feel.
To attach the rifle to the gun holder, @itamitech modified the back of the shield, completing the weapon attachment process. It's surprising how quickly one can adapt to these changes; it feels quite relaxing, especially when right next to it.
Lastly, the atmospheric entry form is also quite impressive, reminiscent of the beauty of the Nazca Lines.
