I've been doing way more work on the actual diorama than the Z'gok recently but I decided to give it a look over and remembered that I totally forgot to apply the decals I wanted to put on this thing. The decals I'm using are from the Zeon basic decal set and here is the kit with some pictures of the decals I applied:
Here it is just posing. I forgot to take a picture of the rank marking (?) on it's shoulder but it's visible here.
I didn't understand all of what the description for this emblem was on the decal sheet, but I found it most appropriate since this is an aquatic suit. I but it on the back of both claws.
There are only a hand full of weathered decals included with the sheet and I decided to use one on the top of the Z'gok. You can also see the aforementioned effect of the rust marker inside of the missile barrels that I liked.
Best pic I could get but you can tell what it is: just two caution labels on the two back thrusters.
I'm not a huge fan of decals and I usually just go by the book when I apply them so I admit I'm a little hesitant and didn't go to town on decal-ing this thing. It might make more sense that I leave off a lot of the smaller decals since this is supposed to be a slightly weathered kit, so I think it might look more natural with less decals.
til next time.
