Gunpla Custom Build : HG 1/144 Paraponera: Shinkirou Team Desert -Sand Bugs- by @bttoluo

The HG 1/144 Paraponera, masterfully customized by the Gunpla builder @bttoluo, stands as an exemplary model of unique modification and intricate detailing.

In this mission, the builder was responsible for medium to long-range attacks, code name: Ant. Due to the large size of the unit, it was not suitable for frontline combat, so the role was to provide support from the rear to assist teammates.

Head: Equipped with an external monitoring device and a protective forehead plate to enhance surveillance capability and to reduce the glare from the sun on the monitor.
Chest: The right side features a smoke grenade launcher, while the left side has an external equipment interface, which is currently not in use.
Right Knee: Equipped with a multi-functional combat shield that houses a mechanical arm. When using the beam cannon, the shield can assist as support.
Close Combat: The unit is also armed with a beam saber for close-range combat, ensuring it can handle both ranged and melee engagements effectively.

This setup allows for versatility, making it ideal for supporting allies while keeping a safe distance from enemy forces.
