Gunpla Custom Build : RG 1/144 Akatsuki Gundam: Zeus Silhouette & Oowashi Unit & Shiranui Unit by @Shotaro71697927

The RG 1/144 Akatsuki Gundam: Zeus Silhouette & Oowashi Unit & Shiranui Unit, masterfully customized by the Gunpla builder @Shotaro71697927, stands as an exemplary model of unique modification and intricate detailing.

The Gunpla Builder has completed a stunning Akatsuki Gundam custom build, featuring the Zeus Silhouette equipment alongside Oowashi and Shiranui configurations.  

Build Highlights  

• Yata-no-Kagami effect: Preserved the plated parts, layering thinned clear yellow and clear orange with gradient painting to achieve a richer, deeper hue.  
• Surface finish contrast: Applied gloss and matte topcoats selectively on each part to create distinct textural contrasts.  
• Shield as the centerpiece: The shield turned out to be the builder’s favorite part due to its intricate detailing and finish.  

Why this Build?  

Since the Metal Robot Spirits version doesn’t support Zeus Silhouette, the only way to accurately recreate Akatsuki’s anime appearance was through combining three kits! Despite the complexity, the final result is immensely satisfying.
