Bandai 1:144 Booster Unit S-Gundam plastic model from Gundam Sentinel photoset May 19th, 2021

It’s hard to believe that this model kit is from 1988! For its time, this level of quality is far above the typical Gundam kits from the ‘80s. I thought this kit was from the mid-’90s.

Paints were the standard Mr. Color Gundam colors for blue, white, red, and yellow. Pretty straightforward. The rifle is nice, but I added some lenses from Wave’s H-Eyes to improve detail. The power hose from the rifle to the leg is Wave’s black A-Spring.

There are no clear parts for the eyes, so I had to reproduce the face part using Oyumaru plastic clay and UV-curing resin. I used a 1.5mm butterfly LED to light the eyes and a 0304 SMD to light the camera in the forehead crest. I decided to add a light to the large boom on the backpack, so I used an white 0805 SMD and painted the light’s surface with clear Tamiya paint, X-25 Clear Green.

This gundam paper model is FXA-08GB G-Core it is the core fighter for the MSA-0011 S Gundam, the papercraft is created by Daum. FXA-08GB G-Core is featured in the photo-novel Gundam Sentinel.

A light craft that was developed to function as a space fighter but whose principal role was to serve as the core block of the MSA-0011 S Gundam. During the One Year War, the prototype mobile suits developed by the Earth Federation Forces were equipped with core fighters of this type to ensure the safe recovery of test pilots, expensive computer equipment, and valuable test data.

This core block system, however, was omitted from mass production machines for cost reasons. Many of the new machines developed after the end of the war were equipped with escape capsules, but these devices were relatively defenseless and were often unable to escape reactor explosions. As mobile suits became more complex and their computer systems more expensive, the core block system was reintroduced to ensure the survival of these vital parts. Like the core fighter of the original RX-78-2 Gundam, the G-Core can function as a fighter craft, and it can fly in the atmosphere even with the cockpit units of the G-Attacker and G-Bomber attached. However, its armament is limited to four missile launchers. [Source: wikia]
