Finished 1/144 Valvrave Hito Mech

Saw this mech at my local hobby shop and couldn't resist. Didn't do anything crazy, pretty much kept the original color scheme.

Let me know what you guys think! Critique is welcomed. This was all airbrushed. I mostly do mechs/gundams and model cars.

Very cool!  Don't know much about Gundams but it looks really good to me!

Agreed. Don't much about that subject, so I can only offer an encouraging word. It looks beautiful.

Same, here. I don't know this mecha, but to me, it looks well done. I like the heroic pose it is in. Normally you just see them standing.

Thanks everyone! This was pretty much my first REAL attempt at airbrushing so these kind words meant a lot BeerCool

Looks way cool but parts of the build kinda disappear into the black background.

Yeah I can totally see that as an issue for future projects. I might end up making a makeshift white backdrop or buy a softbox and a lamp or two. But as of right now, I'm working with what I got Cool
