Detailed notes on the Bandai 5057383 - HG 1/144 00 Raiser with GN Sword III build

Seasoned modellers will find the Bandai 5057383 - HG 1/144 00 Raiser with GN Sword III to be a finely engineered High Grade kit. It captures the Gundam 00 profile while offering scope for precise finishing work. The assembly flow is logical and the kit takes well to careful detailing.

Neat moulding and defined colour panels

The 00 Raiser exhibits neat mould lines and distinct colour panels, which helps if you prefer a straight-from-the-box look. The GN Sword III is particularly well executed, with crisp separations that minimise repainting. For enhanced contrast, targeted washes and edge highlights work especially well.

Advanced finishing and caution points

Pay attention to small connection points during assembly to prevent stress marks. The kit responds positively to light sanding of nubs and selective primer before painting. If you intend to add metal parts or inner frame details, plan the sequence to avoid access problems later in the build.

Specifications

The Bandai HG 1/144 00 Raiser + GN Sword III is a rewarding project for builders wanting a precise High Grade with options for advanced finishing and strengthening.

Use a primer designed for plastics and apply paint in thin, even layers. Allow full drying time between coats and handle small parts by their runners during painting to avoid fingerprints and missed spots.
Some builders report mild play in older polycaps. Replacing worn polycaps or using a small dab of plastic-safe grease can improve smoothness without losing pose hold.
Paint primary colours and weathering first, then apply decals over a gloss base to reduce silvering. Finish with a chosen clear coat to protect decals and unify the finish.
Yes, but check joint tightness and consider adding internal supports or a small stand if you plan extended poses to reduce stress on shoulder joints and connectors.
A light matt or satin clear coat applied in controlled thin passes will preserve fine panel lines while reducing plastic shine. Multiple thin coats are better than a single heavy coat.
