MG OO Gundam Seven Sword /G - WIP 11 (Final)

Weird looking knees

This will be the final post for the Seven Sword. In previous post, all parts of the kit have their armor on. Now the only thing left to do is to assemble this kit and see how it turns out.

Arranged by sections before final assembly. Missing sections are the weapons and backpack

SUIT UP !!

 

+10 points for those who knows the show and the character who likes to say this. As the title suggest, I will be putting on the armors for the MS. Took a while to complete the shadowing and I'm not sure how it will turn out once they are put together. Fingers crossed that they have a consistent look all around the kit.

Since we have assembled the inner frame in the last post, we have to dismantle them in order to put on the armors. As usual we will start with the feet and work our way up to the head (although I accidentally assembled the armor for the head).

Skeleton anyone?

 

Since the completion of the head in the previous posting, it is time to assemble the inner frames and look at their articulation. What I always like to do is to arrange the parts to where they are suppose to go.

The shadowing head

 

After reviewing all the weapons and different parts of the kit, it is time finish is off with the head. There are no gimmicks on the head unless you consider glowing eyes when the LEDs are on. As usual, the different parts of the head before assembly.

 

 

After fixing the mouth piece, I decided to paint the vent at the side silver. Hope this will be shown clearly when the entire head has been assembled.

 

 

After completing the head, I couldn't help but look at the head. I feel this is one of the nicest looking head I've built so far. It looks complex and futuristic. The only thing I didn't like was the 'ears'. Reminds me of elves from LOTR.

First blood

 

This post is the continuation of the weapons for the Seven Swords. From the previous post, we just saw sword one of seven. There are six more swords to finish for this fella. The remaining swords to finish are the katana(s), long and short GN Sword II and the two beam sabers. All the swords for this kit were given the same treatment of flat black, silver lining and darker shade of blue except the beam sabers.

Beam sabers:

Call To Arms !!

Can you figure out what will be the focus of this post from the title? If you did not manage to, allow me to tell you. This post will be about the arms and weapons.

 

 Parts of the left (above) and right (bottom) hand before and after assembly

 

There are 2 different type of fingers for both left and right hand. One is the open fingers and the other is the closed fingers.

Gundam Age 1 Normal early production?

After completing the legs and waist, it is only logical to do the chest next.

Panel lined parts of the inner frame of the waist

 

The first part the manual instruction is to fix is the lower section of the cockpit. After assembling it, the particular part reminds me of the 'spoiler' on the back of Gundam Age-1 Normal.

Kick-starting

Kick-starting this build since it halted in May because of the astray group build. Since I have finished my entry it is time to get back to work on completing my first Master Grade kit. Starting off with the kick-start project is the left leg (no pun intended).

 

Parts of the left leg before assembly

 

Same treatment of gold and silver was given to the piston.

Lighter fluid to the rescue

Continue the progress from the previous posting, the right side of the leg inner frame with panel lining was completed. The usual silver and gold was painted for the piston part on the knee as the details can be seen when the knee is bent.

Small scale figures

After the previous post, I have finished removing all parts from the runner into their respective little boxes. The little boxes are then put in my 'on-the-go' box. I will take this box everywhere I go and if I have to wait for quite some time, the box will come out of my bag and will start fixing it.

First Master Grade

 

As stated in the title, this is my first ever MG kit. Before this, I've been building only High Grade, Advance Grade and a Perfect Grade. Always thought my first MG would be the Shin Musha Gundam since I saw it in a shop. The kit to let me lost my MG virginity is the MG OO Gundam Seven Sword /G. This is a variation mobile suit from the OO series.
