UPDATE: some long overdue progress shots: Final configuration for the stand base: Main logo and the file number from the series' briefing (at the start of the S1 episodes, IIRC): A pic with the unextended sponson ends attached: Bottom shot without and with ADF pod: Rare Earth magnets embedded in both hull and ADF pod: Sponson ends: normal and chain guns deployed; both attach via a series of posts: Airwolf's weaponry at a glance: 3/4 rear view port; extended exhausts for rotor engines and turbo boost nozzles in place: Work done to hollow out and rebuild turbo boost intakes and cooling intakes for rotor engines: Main rotor hub: The helicopter still needs work: a final buffing down of the hull (lumpy in some areas and the shine is too much), refining some details, and a couple fo other nitpicks. But overall, this project has succeeded beyond what I had hoped for! Finally... a shot of "The Lady" coming straight for the camera: Stay tuned folks....

I get the sneaking suspicion that somehow, LSD was involved in the making of those "credits".

Nice job so far! BTW: I know it doesn't have it's legs yet, but it kinda reminds me of what Jaws would look like in the year 3000!

Too bad we couldn't get some Logansin as patrol craft for the cities in the next Macross series as cannon-fodder to get blown up.

The 'Hey look at this really cool model build I saw' post
pengbuzz replied to Shawn's topic in Model kits
Nice weathering job on both; I couldn't hep notice though a couple of nitpicks here (minor ones) that jarred my eyes while looking at these wonderfully done models (second video): 1) The odd offset placement of "U.N. SPACY" on the black wing stripes and "001" with black stripe on the engine nacelles/ legs (1:02)? 1) Anyone notice the huge gap between the canopy and the rest of the nose on the Strike Valk (11:52)? I wonder if the canopy was somewhat warped during manufacture? -
that's just sad looking!!

While they're at it, how about a 1/300 Daedalus and a 1/300 Macross to go with it?

I seriously wish I had the money for all those, Shawn! Right now, I can't even afford modeling supplies!

UPDATE: thanks, but I ended up with some trouble: 1) The internal support for the sponsons tore out on me while I was doing final adjustments for the non-weapon sponson covers. It took with them the entire support structure for the wheels, wheel wells and cracked the bottom hull plate of the model, requiring a rebuild of the lower hull plate. Anyways, a friend on another forum is sending materiel support, so in a few days, I should have this back on track. Stay tuned...

Doesn't look all that bad to me; I think we all got spoiled on "anime magic"....
