Upcoming Ikaruga model looks incredible

We've seen some awesome video game-inspired crafting models in our time, but this one is pretty amazing.


This 1:144 scale model of the ship from Ikaruga is full of detail and looks like an absolute pain to assemble. It's also been announced that a black version of the ship is coming soon as well.
If you're curious to see just how something like that gets put together, there's a video of that below along with larger pictures of the completed model.
