MG Exia Blue Trans-Am
About the gundam:
This is a gundam amongst the first that i built to feature LEDs and scribed panel lines. It features full light up at clear orbs and the head, and it competed in the open category during SMASH 2011 Gunpla Competition. Although did not get placed, but it was an rewarding experience building it because lots of knowledge were gained from customising.
I've used Fluorescent powder mixed with clear enamel for the panel lines. What I had in mind was the Trans-Am effect, but in light blue.

-
Trans-Am panel lines with enamel wash

Add-on metal screws
