Exia 1/100 Custom colors

This would be my 2nd Master grade kit and my first attempt at hand painting. Ive never hand painted kits and never had any ideas on what paint to use, what brush etc.

-Paints I used were Liquitex Acrylics (Matt) and some unknown metallic silver acrylic I found scavenging our basement.
-Various Waterslide Decals. (First time I used them as well and never knew they'd float on water if soaked too long)

Notes:

Im aware its not as clean as I expected but I would like too keep it as is as a reminder of how much I can still improve on. XD XD
