Building the Bandai MGSD 1/100 XVX-016 Gundam Aerial Rebuild (Pro Ver.) — the premium MGSD entry from Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury, featuring an updated GUND-ARM armor system, enhanced Clear Part deployment mechanics, and signature reflective shell structure? NEWC Pro Pre-Cut Studio delivers two precision-engineered upgrades designed exclusively for this kit: laser-cut pre-cut masking paper (3 sheets) for clean color separation across the white, red, and blue armor — with dedicated coverage for the transparent Clear Parts — and stainless steel detail etchings that add micro-scale metallic realism to the head, chest, wings, and display base.

This product contains only upgrade accessories — the MGSD 1/100 Gundam Aerial Rebuild (Pro Ver.) model kit itself is not included.

Precision Masking for Tri-Color Armor & Clear Parts

• The MGSD Aerial Pro's signature white, red, and blue armor demands precise color separation to bring out the GUND-ARM system panel lines, chest vents, wing edges, and knee armor details. The 3-sheet masking set is laser-traced from the actual kit part contours, covering the head, chest, shoulders, waist, legs, and wing binders. Dedicated sections protect the transparent Clear Parts during painting — a critical feature unique to the Pro Ver. kit.
• Three full sheets provide complete coverage for the entire model. The Aerial Pro's white-dominant color scheme makes clean paint borders especially visible, and every masking contour is engineered to deliver professional-grade separation without bleeding or residue.

Stainless Steel Etchings & Reflective Sequin Effect

• Replace flat plastic surfaces with precision-etched stainless steel parts. The etching set covers key areas — head crest details, chest GUND-ARM logos, wing panel textures, and base accents — adding metallic sharpness that plastic alone cannot achieve.
• A standout feature of the Pro Ver.: the masking paper includes reflective sequin coverage for the shell/armor parts, creating a light-catching shimmer effect under display lighting. This gives the completed build a signature Aerial Pro visual identity that standard masking simply cannot replicate.

Engineered Exclusively for the MGSD Pro Ver.

• Both upgrades are designed specifically for the MGSD Gundam Aerial Rebuild (Pro Ver.) and its unique 1/100 proportions — including the expanded wing deployment system, Clear Part integration, and updated GUND-ARM armor geometry. The Pro Ver.'s enhanced articulation and additional transparent parts require different masking contours than the standard MGSD Aerial.
• Whether you're replicating the iconic anime color scheme or exploring custom paintwork with the reflective sequin effect, the masking paper and etchings maintain visual consistency across every surface. The included guides make application straightforward — no guesswork required.

How to Use

Masking Paper

1. Identify Sections — Use the letter-coded guide to tear along designated lines. Each section corresponds to a specific model part. Pay special attention to sections marked for Clear Parts and reflective sequin areas.
2. Apply to Parts — Press masks firmly onto model pieces before spray painting. Ensure full contact with the surface — especially on curved armor panels and transparent Clear Parts.
3. Paint & Peel — Once paint is fully dry, carefully peel off masks to reveal crisp, professional-grade color separation lines. For reflective sequin sections, follow the included guide for layering technique.

Etchings

1. Locate Positions — Follow the included placement diagram to identify where each etching piece goes (head crest, chest GUND-ARM logos, wing panels, base accents).
2. Glue Carefully — Apply a small amount of model cement (not included) to the back of each etching piece. Handle small parts with tweezers — edges are sharp. Press firmly into position and allow glue to cure fully.

Questions fréquemment posées

Q: Does this product include the MGSD Gundam Aerial Rebuild model kit?

No. This is an upgrade accessory kit only — it contains pre-cut masking paper and/or stainless steel etchings. You need to purchase the Bandai MGSD 1/100 XVX-016 Gundam Aerial Rebuild (Pro Ver.) model kit separately.

Q: Is this compatible with the standard MGSD Gundam Aerial (non-Pro version)?

No. This product is designed exclusively for the MGSD Gundam Aerial Rebuild (Pro Ver.). The standard MGSD Aerial has different armor geometry, no Clear Parts, and different wing deployment mechanics — the masking contours and etching dimensions will not align correctly. Each NEWC Pro Pre-Cut product is kit-specific.

Q: How many masking paper sheets are included?

The masking paper set includes 3 sheets of laser-cut imported washi paper. The MGSD Aerial Pro's tri-color armor (white, red, blue) plus transparent Clear Parts require fewer sheets than larger MG kits — 3 sheets provide complete coverage for the entire model, including dedicated sections for reflective sequin application.

Q: What is the reflective sequin effect?

The Pro Ver. masking set includes specially designed sections that, when combined with the correct spray painting technique, create a light-catching shimmer effect on the shell/armor parts. This mimics the signature reflective appearance of the Gundam Aerial in The Witch from Mercury anime. The included guide explains the specific layering technique required.

Q: Can I use the masking paper on the transparent Clear Parts?

Yes — dedicated masking sections are included specifically for the Pro Ver.'s transparent Clear Parts. However, extra care is needed: apply light, even spray coats to avoid clouding or paint pooling on transparent surfaces. We recommend testing your painting technique on a spare clear runner first.

Q: Do I need any special tools to use the masking paper?

No special tools beyond your standard spray painting setup. The masking paper is pre-cut and letter-coded — just tear along the lines and apply. You will need spray paint (not included) and a well-ventilated painting area. For the reflective sequin effect, follow the included layering guide.

Q: What glue should I use for the etchings?

Standard plastic model cement (such as Tamiya Cement or Mr. Cement) works well. Apply a small amount to the back of each etching piece. Handle the small parts with tweezers — the stainless steel edges can be sharp.

Q: Is the bundle option worth it compared to buying separately?

The bundle saves you $5 compared to purchasing the masking paper and etchings individually. It's the best value if you plan to use both upgrades — the masking paper handles the paint work (including reflective sequin and Clear Part coverage) while the etchings add metal detail finishing. If you only need one type of upgrade, individual options are available.
