Why choose Gunze Sangyo UG-12 MS Sazabi Red?

Gunze Sangyo’s Gundam Color line of acrylic paints was created to perfectly capture the color palette of models from the popular Mobile Suit Gundam anime series. The MS Sazabi Red shade was specially developed with the Sazabi model in mind – the flagship mecha piloted by Char Aznable during the 1980s–90s era (the contemporary period in the anime setting). Primarily dedicated to plastic model kits in 1/144, 1/100, and 1/60 scale, though appreciated by modelers of other universes as well.

The formula, based on top-grade organic solvent, guarantees excellent adhesion and outstanding coating durability. The paint is suitable for both brush and airbrush application. It dries quickly, forms a uniform layer, does not chip, and does not react negatively with typical modeling primers.

Recommendations & Difficulty Level

• For whom: for intermediate and advanced plastic modelers, Gundam series fans, and science-fiction modeling enthusiasts
• Application difficulty: 2/5 – easy to use, but requires basic surface preparation and handling of solvents

We recommend Gunze Sangyo UG-12 MS Sazabi Red to anyone striving for an excellent, original look for their models from the Gundam universe and to all plastic modeling enthusiasts.
