Technical Note: [from mahg]

In the race to adapt its standard RGM-79 GM mobile suit for specialised roles during the latter days of the One Year War, the Earth Federation Forces created a GM variant designed to serve as a fast attack unit for hit-and-run raids, the RGM-79LGM LightArmour.Mounting only the barest minimum of armour (notably missing armour on the shoulders and ankles), thus giving it more acceleration and maneuverability. It also carried a beam gun similar to that of theRX-78Gundam’s beamrifle,packing a heavier punch but paying the price in more limited ammunition. Due to its lightweight and nimbleness, the GM LightArmour was favoured by many of the Federation Forces’ former-fighter-pilots-turned-MS-pilots.

While working on the commission work I decided to take time off to clear my mind. And what better way to take break than building yet another kit! ^^Anyhow,while watching the 'Terminal' on the telly I snap assembled the junk HGUC GM kit that I have lying around after cannibalised some of its parts.

Now before anyone say I will be the first to admit it's rather simple modification. ^ ^;

During the assembly I did play with some variations but at the end decided to go back to the original MSV look - you can see some of it in below WIP pictures.

Variation Mock Up:Final Mock Up:At this stage I had the change of mind and pretty much rebuilt the whole thing using some more parts from my junk box...After several coats of primer...And onto the next stage~(That orange should be more stronger but guess due to the flash it came out bit washed out...)...almost there.Once the paint is cured completely on with decal & weathering...And after some more time...
