About the Vehicle
The Gundam Astaroth is a reconstructed Mobile Suit from the Calamity War era, salvaged and modified in the Moon Steel manga. Piloted by Argi Mirage, it reflects the harsh, survivalist conditions of frontier life in the Iron-Blooded Orphans setting, combining power with resilience.
Paint & Hobby Tips
For a weathered look, use metallic dry-brushing to highlight its exposed mechanical frame. Enhance realism with a matte topcoat and panel lining to emphasize the armor’s rugged wear and tear. The kit’s modular nature also invites kitbashing and accessory swaps with other IBO models.
