Gunpla Custom Build : HG 1/144 Zaku Desert Type Custom by @yukimaru0131

The HG 1/144 Zaku Desert Type Custom, masterfully customized by the Gunpla builder @yukimaru0131, stands as an exemplary model of unique modification and intricate detailing.

The Zaku Desert Type was modified with a focus on improving its proportions while preserving its distinctive desert-combat silhouette. The main adjustments include shortening the shoulder connection shafts, extending the waist armor, reshaping the inner thighs, and adding articulation to the tops of the feet.

The shortened shoulder connection gives the upper body a more compact appearance, while the extended waist armor and revised thighs create a stronger overall silhouette. The movable foot armor also adds flexibility to the lower body and improves posing.

For the hands, Mikadoya's Classic Hand parts were used, providing a more refined and natural-looking grip.

The result is a restrained custom that focuses on proportion, articulation, and small structural improvements rather than excessive detailing. These changes complement the original Zaku Desert Type design, which already features distinctive armor and equipment developed for tropical and desert warfare.
