Does anyone have some gunpla they've put together recently, or that they're working on?

Here's an old RS-178 MKII PG kit I assembled recently. Still deciding how I want to detail him, but as my first PG the level of detail and articulation is really cool.

Do either of you guys have any tutorials you would recommend to see what airbrushing and detailing/customizing a kit at these higher levels would look like? I've always been curious at the workflows to get this kind of detail/quality.

I know of blogs like Good Guy Dan that have a lot of gunpla tutorials; the set for the HG Sinanju looks like it touches on a lot of what you're looking for.

Personally I don't have a particular go to place though, most of the time if I have a specific question on like thinning ratios or how to use something I search discord or the first few pages of Google. A lot of like military modeling forums out there where the advice still applies to gunpla, stuff like that.
