A Gift from Zuka
January 30, 2009 - 18.25Zuka bought me a Kanu SD Gundam from the Sangokuden series during her trip to Hong Kong. I finally put it together.

I actually have the headgear on wrong here. The golden part is put on lower than it is supposed to be and thus the eyes are covered. This is fixed in latter photos.
Box art. Side text says “onihige no daibuyou” which I’ll loosely translate to devil-bearded warrior.
Included with the Gundam is a 4 page comic in Chinese as well as a coaster looking thing.
Stealing Bupo’s background cardboard from another Sangokuden set she bought, I took a few shots of Kanu on my laptop surface.
Although I enjoy putting these models together, I’m terrible at applying the stickers. Also, I lack the markers to do extra colouring. Hence, the Ooga Ryuugetsu Dou, Kanu’s weapon, is a bit plain-looking.
A back view of Kanu.
Headgear is now fixed and eyes are more apparent.
This background is supposed to be the Peach Garden where Ryuubi, Kanu and Chouhi sworn their oath of brotherhood.
This next background is just a random battle field, raged with fire.
The last picture and this picture are taken in the same position with the lighting moved.
Borrowing bupo’s transparent version of Kanu, it’s a shot of Kanu twins!
I think the transparent weapon looks better but otherwise, I like my Kanu.
Macro face shot. Check out the devil beard! It looks kind of ugly in my opinion. haha.
Lots of ‘antlers’ everywhere. This one on the right shoulder is a bit loose and falls off often.
These two are the same shots with different focus.
Even with macro, the focus went to the body. I had to keep the body out of view, focus and then move the camera over to include the body to take this shot.
