Delpi holo decals with Mark setter and softer, Gundam markers for panel lines, matte topcoat to hide the scratches from 1000 grit sandpaper on the dark blue wings.

That's great work, especially with the waterslides on a first build! Definitely one to be more proud of than my first build. Out of curiosity, what did you use for your topcoat? It looks more satin than matte to me and doesn't seem to have full coverage. In images where a dark part catches the light it looks splotchy.

Hmm, it might just be the light as I inspected each piece outside in the sun to ensure it was even. I used Mr clear matte, which can cause gundam markers to bleed so I layered 2 light coats.
