Putting Together the HG 1/144 Michaelis from The Witch From Mercury

The HG 1/144 Michaelis recreates the mobile suit styling from The Witch From Mercury with careful mould detail and clear part divisions. It is designed to reward careful assembly while remaining approachable for hobbyists moving beyond beginner kits.

Movement and Standout Display Qualities

Articulation on the Michaelis is strong for its grade, enabling expressive poses. The joint layout balances range and holding power, making it a practical choice for shelf displays or small dioramas.

Assembly Difficulty and Recommended Gear

This model has a moderate difficulty level. Gather basic modelling gear such as side cutters, a sharp hobby knife for trimming, and a set of sanding sticks to clean up connections and ensure smooth seams.

Surface Prep, Painting Tips and Sealing

Enhance panel detail with a fine wash or panel liner, and lightly sand visible seams before painting. Decals and a protective topcoat will help colours stay vibrant and give a finished look.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/144
  • Grade: High Grade (HG)
  • Build Level: Moderate

The HG 1/144 Michaelis from The Witch From Mercury is a compact but detailed kit that suits model builders who want a poseable HG with visible mechanical detail.

Do I need prior modelling experience to enjoy this kit?

Some experience helps, but enthusiastic beginners can finish the kit. Work slowly and use the recommended tools to avoid stress during assembly.

How well do the joints hold poses?

Joints are well designed for the HG class and hold most poses reliably. If you need firmer hold, consider light joint tighteners or thin layers of clear nail polish on sliding parts.

Is painting required to improve appearance?

Painting is not required, but panel lining, decals and a matt or gloss topcoat make a big visual difference without a full paint job.

What maintenance should I do after assembly?

Keep joints dust-free and avoid over-stressing limbs. Tighten loose joints if needed and replace weak polycaps with new parts if you plan to pose often.
