Gunpla Custom Build : HG 1/144 Char's Zaku II: Custom by @norske0427

The HG 1/144 Char's Zaku II: Custom, masterfully customized by the Gunpla builder @norske0427, stands as an exemplary model of unique modification and intricate detailing.

The sixth entry in the Universal Century series is Char’s High-Mobility Zaku II, completed as a full custom build. The model is a mix of the Premium Bandai High-Mobility Zaku II, the Zaku II F2, and the Gouf Custom, combined to refine both form and function.

Key upgrades include proportion adjustments and a replaced power pipe system, giving the suit a sharper, more purposeful silhouette. The F2 Zaku machine gun was selected for armament, while the legs received careful seam-line removal. The shield was modified from an F2 base and reshaped with an Origin-style influence.

A side-by-side comparison with the F2 Zaku highlights the effectiveness of the mixing approach. Overall, the project demonstrates a well-balanced kitbash that stays faithful to Char’s image while improving presence and detail.
