Out of the ruins
Out from the wreckage
Can't make the same mistake this time
We are the children
The last generation
We are the ones they left behind
And i wonder when we are ever gonna change it
Living under the fear till nothing else remains
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Gundome
Looking for something we can rely on
There's got to be something better out there
Love and compassion, their day is coming
All else are castles built in the air
And i wonder when we are ever gonna change it
Living under the fear till nothing else remains
All the children say
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Gundome
What do we do with our lives
We leave only a mark
Will our story shine like a life
Or end in the dark
Give it all or nothing
My apologies to Tina

What can I say, always wanted to build a angelic version of the Wing Gundam Zero Custom. Some, back in the annals of time, I saw a conceptual illustration of the Wing Zero and all I could remember was a lot of white and gold. So I painted one.
This is built straight out of the box, the only mods being paint. And a lot of that. 4 cans of primer (Tamiya white & dark grey), 5 jars of white, 2 black (pre-shading), 3 gold.... mostly Gunze gold but some Tamiya Titanium Gold & Gold leaf thrown in the mix.
The only thing that didn't get painted was the clear parts (wanted to get them re-cast in amber but no time) & the vinyl feathers.
I was thwarted numerous times by Bandai's usual very tight tolerances, too tight sometimes to get some of the joints in place. Then, after all that, I still fell afoul of the dreaded PG loose joint dilemma.
Time? Lost track of it. Call it about 150 hours or so.
