Gunpla (plastic model kits) are a snap together assembly and do not need plastic cement to complete. We always recommend having some plastic cement handy as a part of your modeler's tool kit. If you prefer to fix your model in a particular pose then plastic cement will work. Plastic cement is also perfect to use if a joint is loose. Apply plastic cement in a single thin layer and allow it to dry completely before test fitting. Re-apply more cement if necessary.
Gunpla (plastic model kits) are designed to be built and displayed without the need for painting. Kits are molded in different colours replicating the colours of the actual mecha from the Gundam series. A technique called colour separation, where multiple parts of the model are molded in different colours on the same sprue is also used. Gundam kits often include stickers or water-slide decals that can be applied to the model to enhance its appearance. Some Gunpla kits come with pre-painted parts or parts with pre-applied details, such as metallic or translucent finishes.
Many modelers still choose to paint their kits to customize and add further detail. Painting allows for more creativity and personalization, enabling modelers to achieve unique effects, weathering, and colour schemes that may not be available out of the box. However, the kits are designed to be enjoyable and visually appealing even without painting, making them accessible to a wide range of hobbyists.
HGBC stands for "High Grade Build Custom," indicating that this kit is designed to be compatible with High Grade (HG) Gunpla models and offers customization options.
While the Sky-High Wings are designed for the HGUC 1/144 Gundam Aerial model, they can potentially be adapted to other HG kits with similar back-mounted backpack configurations. However, adjustments and modifications might be needed for proper fit and compatibility.
The Sky-High Wings come in white pre-colored plastic, allowing flexibility for customization. You can leave them as is for a clean and simple look, or paint them with your desired colors and patterns to personalize the wings and match your chosen mobile suit's color scheme.
Yes, the Sky-High Wings feature articulated joints that allow for some posing options. You can adjust the wing position and angle to create various dynamic poses for your mobile suit, adding increased visual interest and dynamism to your display.
While basic assembly can be done with your hands, hobby nippers are recommended for cleanly clipping parts from the runners. Additionally, a hobby knife can be useful for trimming and cleaning up nubs, while tweezers can help with handling small parts. For advanced customization, consider basic paints, brushes, and masking tape for personalized paint jobs and intricate details.
