Build Guide for the 1/144 HGBF Gundam The End

The 1/144 HGBF Gundam The End offers an absorbing modelling challenge for those who like unique designs and mechanical nuance. This High Grade kit, from the Gundam Build Fighters series, rewards careful assembly with visually striking weapons and solid articulation.

Poseability and Structural Notes

Expect a good range of articulation that supports dynamic poses across the arms and legs. The shoulder assemblies allow smooth rotation for display variety. The set includes specialised parts such as extendable claw mechanisms that add tactical-looking detail to the model.

Skill Level and Recommended Supplies

Classed as a moderate build, this kit is best tackled by hobbyists with some prior kit experience. Useful tools include side cutters, a hobby knife, sanding sticks and panel lining pens for neat finishing.

Surface Prep and Finishing Advice

Color separation is strong, but light sanding and panel lining will sharpen the appearance. Carefully apply decals and finish with a clear coat to protect the paint and highlight sculpted details.

Specifications

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

This kit is a solid pick for builders who prefer distinct styling and articulated display pieces, offering rewarding construction and strong shelf presence.

Most parts are snap-fit and do not require glue, but some modellers choose glue for reinforced joints or customising the kit.
A combination of selective brushwork and light airbrushing for larger panels gives clean results; panel lining enhances mechanical depth without heavy paint coverage.
Check the manufacturer's support channels for spare parts, as small components may be available through official service or community marketplaces.
Use a smooth surface, trim decals carefully, and consider decal setting solutions followed by a clear coat to lock them in place and avoid silvering.
