SHORT MESSAGE ABOUT THE KIT: 

This build is my first fully airbrushed build and my first pre-shaded build. I removed the seam lines on the lower arm and left shoulder as well.

The backstory of the MS:
June, UC 0079

Suberoa Zinnerman was assigned to the Unicorn Team, consisting of the Bugu, Zaku I, and Dom Test Type. His unit number was 02, hence the UC02 on his right shoulder (Unicorn 02). This particular team was a Special Operations team. Over time, Suberoa had not only gained trust and respect for his comrades and grew a bond with them, but also had a bond with his MS and the team refused to receive new units. They were brothers to one another and to their MS. In their final mission, they had an intense battle which led to the death of Suberoa’s comrades. Suberoa felt great guilt for being unable to save his comrades and swore never to pilot a mobile suit ever again. He still has tragic memories of this event and has PTSD whenever he sees a Zaku I.
