Gunpla Custom Build : HG 1/144 Z-AXE by @naoral

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

The “Black Tri-Stars’ Last Ace” — M’s Custom Zaku, “Z-AXE” has been completed. Determined to avenge his fallen comrades from the Clan Battle, the pilot—once a politician—has returned to the battlefield.

Armed to the limit and equipped with additional thrusters to enhance maneuverability, this custom Zaku challenges the Gundam single-handedly, even after the famed Rick Dom’s M.A.V. tactics failed to bring it down. The builder emphasizes that this is not an act of resentment over political downfall, but a mission of resolve.

The massive heat hawk, inherited from a deceased friend, serves as the unit’s symbolic weapon. With a thruster-heavy backpack enabling rapid acceleration, the Z-AXE can close distances instantly, striking down its targets with sheer force. Despite its heavy appearance, the machine boasts remarkable agility—capable of keeping pace with even the erratic movements of Gundam-type suits. Though its endurance is low, this was never a concern, as the machine was designed purely for short, decisive battles.

An additional “Limiter Release Mode,” titled Z-ONG, represents the manifestation of Zeon’s indomitable spirit. The builder, inspired by the aesthetics of the Military Police Zaku, customized the kit freely while maintaining rare, lore-accurate coloration. The project was both creative and deeply enjoyable—an homage to the enduring legacy of Zeon craftsmanship.
