This was a very easy, very fast model to put together. It only took me a combined five hours to complete at the very most. Since it's all one color, very minute painting was necessary. Only the silver detailing on the neck, the orange lights on the pelvis and the red divots on the chest were painted. The red divots were fairly easy with a very fine-tipped paintbrush and I wiped off the excess.
This mecha is so cool looking. It's considered science-fictiony looking in the Patlabor universe even, and very intimidating with its pith black coloring. What is so cool about this model is the wings that fold out for flight mode.
