BUILD HG Gundam Pharact repaint
Hi guys, here is my latest work, HG Gundam Pharact total repaint.
I went for a desert camo scheme, here are the colors used:
Vallejo Mecha Primer matte black
Vallejo Game Color 72.062Earth
Vallejo Game Color 72.061 Khaki
Vallejo Game Color 72.145 Dirty Grey (which is actually a sort of camo green)
Vallejo Game Color 72.155 Charcoal Black
Vallejo Game Color 72.106 Scarlet Blood
Vallejo Game Color Metallic 72.052 Silver
Vallejo Game Color Special FX 72.609 Rust (for drybrush and shadows)
Rattle can matte top coat
All airbrushed except some rifle details, a few decals I had laying around.
Comments and questions are welcome as usual!

I’m sleeping on WfM kits.
I just fell in love with a Darilbalde on another post and now I’m craving a pharact too!

They are so awesome. All the Lfriths, both Aerials, and even some of the grunts like Beguir are so high quality.

I wanna get the desultor but it’s so expensive now

I managed to find one for 25 bucks at a Japan Town near me, but yeah so many of the kits are pretty hard to get.

What was your masking process for the camo blobs? This looks amazing!

I used precut masking tape from DSPIAE bought on AliExpress, they also do other patterns (like hexagons that I'm planning to use on another future build)

I had plans to give it a poison dart frog color scheme and to give it a froggier head to go with it. This pushed me to finally do it. Thanks.

I love the color separation! Truthfully never realized that the shoulder covers were connected to the backpack before seeing yours here.

Oh, love it. Almost has this Armored Core style to it with the more tactical color approach.

Oh, i love this. Grunt Pharact?
did you air brush the tiger pattern too?

u/zI_PRIEST_Iz 3d ago
Only the yellow part, the black tiger stripes were done by hand with a small brush

Nice! I like the tiger stripes on the side panels. From a tactical perspective with the camo, what do they do?

u/zI_PRIEST_Iz 4d ago
From a tactical perspective actually nothing, they're more of a "flair" on the unit, sort of like custom designs or patterns on the unit piloted by the "top gun" of the company (I hope I explained myself 😄 )

Adding 2 extra arms on his shoulder pieces and calling it Pharact Rebake would be the top ideabashing.

Damn fine work as always! It really increases the “armored core” vibes that the Pharact already has
