RG Gundam Epyon (with decals)
I finally finished putting the decals on my RG Gundam Epyon. Even with the matte top coat I’ve flaked off two of them, but I’m still happy with the result. I love this kit.
I appreciate the advice, I imagined I’d find something simple for a first go but do love a fun red look. Overall I know I need to find one in my level first for sure. It just looked awesome and fewer red choices than I hoped for.
So thanks for the reinforcement of a simple start, cause it’s easy to take on too much and once for sure.
Yet again not sure if my reply went through from Mastodon, so here’s the quoted reply:
@orbitz Looking for anything that isn’t just the top 5 of the year is honestly pretty hard. Here are a few High Grade red releases of varying price and availability from the last couple years:

If you have patience and are willing to pivot, you can do a (good) RG kit as your first. You’re more likely to finish a kit you like either way.
Thanks for the suggestions I will check them out. I keep having to reread them to remember the grade scale but since it’s minimal investment for tools may as well start small and be interested than too difficult/ time consuming and get frustrated without finishing.
