MG GAT-X105E Lukas's Strike E + IWSP - WIP Part 3

Yo, it's been quite some time since my last WIP post, project kinda delayed due to Chinese Lunar New Year, which I eat, drink, play & sleep all day long XD. I finally completed the body of Strike E, which took longer than expected.

Legs:

*Front vents below the knee armour are painted silver with Artline silver marker.

*Side vents at the lower thigh side armour are also painted silver. I've applied extra caution waterslide decals by Samueldecal on the sides of knee armour.

*I painted the inner side of the rear thrusters with gold using Artline gold marker. Extra caution decals above the thrusters, using Samueldecal's waterslides.

*I applied extra large GAT-X105E logo decal on the right side of right ankle armour and vice versa on the other. Also waterslide decal by Samueldecal.

I've painted the insides of the ankle armour to simulate inner frame. Colour used are silver with Artline silver marker, and gray with Gundam Marker GM12 Gray.

I've also painted some silver on the inner frame on the upper thigh where the outer armour splits when bent.

Hip:

*The front vents on the crotch are painted silver while the vents on the front skirt armour are painted yellow(Gundam Marker GM62 Yellow), then filled in black(Gundam Marker GM01 Black). The O.M.N.I. emblem is waterslide decal from Samueldecal while the other 2 are dry transfer decal given in the kit.

*I just detailed the side skirt armour a bit by painting the bolts silver. The decal on it is sticker given in the kit.

*The insides of the rear skirt thrusters are painted in gold. Decals applied are just using dry transfers & stickers provided.

*It's the first time I've tried to paint the insides of skirt armours. Using same colour like what I've used on the ankle armours.

Here's the whole Strike E completed and weathering done.

Now that the body is completed, next up is the IWSP pack and weapons + accessories. This may take some time as there is many parts need to be painted, especially the IWSP pack, where masking will be a pain in the butt =_=. I'm also working on MG Strike Freedom at the mean time but at a slower rate than this kit. Stay tune for the next WIP!
