Looks pretty good here. The shading looks subtle and blends in quite well. What are your color recipes?

Honestly, can't really give much comment as the pic is too small for apek..... Overall, it looks clean as it should be. Color aint really my cup of tea. I think the blue n black is way too quiet compared to the red, which is scatter around different parts of the mecha. I got a feeling it doesn't have a very strong focal point. As for decal, try get some aftermarket ones, especially for those small size warning/caution signs.; if u dont want to use bandai's stickers. For pose, current pose can be more eye catching with just a few touches. upper body remain, turn the thigh part backward a little, the knee n lower fee as straight or bending to the front as much. This generally gives a stronger impression for standing pose. (This is amongst some of us, the "kuku" pose, where the groin part push forward the most). Well, this is kinda the "in" pose for current years. Check out the this pic, The far left n far right pose. Of course, some will even go to the extent to modify the waist to bend forward. just my 2 cents worth

It's looks like a nice clean build, I agree with ray though; more closeups! I see some nice shades there that we would love to get closer looks at. I believe with candy coats a minimal of decals is much more suitable though with less interference with the appreciation of the color scheme. The red looks good, but it can benefit from a much more uniform brighter application of colors.
Despite the difficulties, it's done up pretty well.Here's to your next successful kit!
Btw ray, Rick dias can do crotch gaze pose with no neck ar? ;D

Agreed on the subject is a bit small. Will post once I taken a close up. Anyway, thanks for the comments and will take it to next build.
This build is more like a testing on the metallic base with all the clear colors such as red, black and blue. Red turns up to be great which I like it. The black is totally no black at all and after spray, I can only see a bit of black so no choice have to spray black to color the silver. Don't know why? Maybe senpai here can share the clear color?
For the blue, the clear blue turn up to be really ugly. So no choice have to spray solid blue on it. This is why you can see a bit on silver metallic on the blue color.
Overall the color seems odd a first glance but after a while, the it feels ok. I do agree there is improvement with proper planning at first.
Because I am new and there are many colors which I still not sure so trying more colors which also improve the future spray.
The shading I learnt it from Ray too. Thanks.
For the pose, will take it for next build too. Thanks.
One question, could we post image which larger than 800x600?
