But even among model builders, Japanese Twitter user @kyo512a stands out for attention to detail, which is on full display in one of his recent undertakings: a model of the ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos Lupus from anime TV series Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans.
Labor of love makes the latest Gundam mecha look like something from anime’s heady hand-drawn peak.
Hopefully @kyo512a will find a new mecha muse soon, so that we can see more of his amazing painting skills.
That’s not the drawing on the box, but the actual completed model after being painted by @kyo512a!
