All the Gunpla from "Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch of Mercury" in one place!
From painting to assembly and weathering!
What Gunpla beginners wanted to know
Detail-enhancing crafting techniques
The ultimate production guide condensed into one volume!!

The hit anime "Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch of Mercury" aired a total of 25 episodes, including "PROLOGUE", Season 1 (12 episodes) and Season 2 (12 episodes).
In line with the development of the animation, various mobile suits from various factions appearing in the work were commercialized as 1/144 scale Gundam plastic models.
Additionally, the main character's machine, Gundam Aerial, was also released in a larger and more detailed scale of 1/100.

There are endless ways to express Gunpla, such as adding ink lines, painting, or weathering.
This book provides friendly explanations of ideas and techniques for making things that are easy for even beginners to follow.
If you're thinking about making Gunpla in the future, or want to make more of them, this is a must-read.
You'll definitely find the kit you want to build and how to make it.


This book introduces the following crafting techniques:


1.
Inserting the ink line into the mold
Gunpla parts have thin grooves engraved into them called "molds."
If you pour gray or black ink into this groove, the mold will stand out and the amount of information will increase, making it look much better.


2.
Partial painting with markers and brushes
Even if you just paint a little bit of the parts that couldn't be expressed with the plastic color, you can create a much more realistic atmosphere.


3.
Painting with spray and airbrush
You can paint evenly and neatly by simply spraying the surface of the part with a canned spray paint.
We also teach you how to use an airbrush to achieve more detailed painting.


4.
Weathering
Weathering is a technique that deliberately makes a mobile suit dirty by imagining the dust, stains, and scratches it gets while fighting.
If you weather in your favorite style, you will create a one-of-a-kind piece of art that is unique to you.

This book is a modeling guide for the "Mercury Witch" that supports both 1/144 scale and 1/100 scale kits, so beginners can build a solid foundation in Gunpla construction techniques with just this one book.
