How To Paint Gunpla! Gundam Wing Tribute Diorama – The Humble “Leo”
March 11, 2025 by johnlyons
Join John for a special video where he shows off the whole process of painting his Gundam models as part of a special display designed as a tribute to the 1995 series, Gundam Wing. He does off unboxing the figures, discussing the diorama and executing the final painting process.

John showcases the final models, the painting process that he goes through and also the finished display base that he has ready for this tribute to the humble Leo that he likes so much.
John threatened us with more Gundam content for a while now, and we've finally let him loose to play around with some Gunpla.
Has this inspired you to go paint your own Gunpla figures?

yeah!
oooooh! Looking forward to this!
Small side note @johnlyons: the URL in the article to the Leo is wonky at the start, so doesn’t work…
Should work properly now?
As a heads up folks, John will be in the chat to talk with folks during the premiere if you have questions!
This was great. The painting really helps to add some realism to the mobile suits.
I’ve never watched Gundam Wing…yet. It’s on the list. I’ve mostly watched The Witch From Mercury, and now Universal Century (currently two thirds through Gundam Zeta).
Nice work! But someone should look at the electric lazy Susan, it stutters a bit *g*
I couldn;t find my beter one… it’s a bit TIRED that one.
Yeah, the Leo is like the storm troopers or battle droids from Star Wars.
Louis is going to do more with Gundam as well and I think Peachy is looking to do some things to.
I am currently watching Iron-blooded orphans.
I hope there will be more of this content in the near future.
I’d love to get a bunch of youtubers to do something gunpla together. Would be great fun
I’m all ears
They are fabulous looking gundam figures for the game table’s 👍
Watched it just now, absolutely fantastic! Very inspiring. The Leo does bring me back… Gundam Wing was one of the first anime series I watched (that and Dragon Ball (without the Z!)). I have to admit that the Leo was actually one of my favourite mobile suits from the series. I’ve always had this obsession with the regulars facing off against the almost monstrous Gundam suits. Such heroism, sniff.
