Gundam Epyon (Sturm und Drang unit), with decals and topcoat applied. What I really wanted to do was to have the Epyon hold it straight up with both hands, like the He-Man pose, but alas the wrist articulation doesn't support that pose.

Fun fact: the tip of the tail is actually in one of the holes in the base plate, acting as a brace to keep the model from tipping backwards.

It is, in fact, literally longer than my forearm. And that's still not even the actual full size!

Looks sharp! How was the build process for it?

Man, that's a lot of decals!

I always find it an interesting choice when the weapon + effect is too heavy for the joints.
