Can't see any Glaug booster there.

[cool8or]

But Glaug Booster was in 1/100... it was a Samurai Monkey kit.

It was still made by John wasn't it.

The tachikoma is a Samurai Monkey kit and yet it's still made by John.

The 1/100 gluag booster was not mastered by John.

[PetarB]

I thought it was for some reason. My apologies!

[Grayson72]

Whatever happened to Rob and Samurai Monkey anyway?

Good question.

[TheLoneWolf]

Rob/Samurai Monkey is still around, though he doesn't post as much as he used to. His new screename is robokochan.

i saw this from that link above:


when did captain make this? and what scale? more importantly, can i still get one?
or is this one of the small ARII kits? the base looks awfully familiar...

[derex3592]

I can tell you that's NOT the ARII kit. I have one. That one is WAY cooler! The stand looks like the ARII however.

[ultimateone]

Aaagghh! I really wish someone would hurry up and build the "Kaa - Tsai" and post lots of photos.

Actually, there IS an ARII kit under there, believe it or not, it was just heavily modified with Super Sculpey because the basic kit was, well... Not that great.

When it was made: 1993

Scale: 1/15000 (approximate)

Can you still get this: you could never get it, even back in the day: it was a one-off that's still in my display cabinet collecting space dust

[derex3592]

I stand corrected Cap'n! Awesome mod on that. I have the 4 original ARII Zentradi ship kits that I built back around the mid 90's as well.

[Major Focker]

fantastic work on that QQ!
i can only hope that a bigger version is on your shortlist of future projects.
perhaps 1/8000 to be in scale with one of the old SDF kits and the Britai flagship done by Scale Solutions.

You are the Best of the Best John!. ;O)

Aaagghh! I really wish someone would hurry up and build the "Kaa - Tsai" and post lots of photos.

"Kaa - Tsai" was already built by a fellow member PetarB. And lots of photos were posted in this forum.

[wm cheng]

Thanks so much Captn!

The first set is his amazing launch rail...

(I don't think I ever posted the Booster ones as I'm really un-happy with the way the photos turned out - I just couldn't seem to get the right colours, colour balance & exposure).

Great stuff! But actually, the launch arm was mastered by Gundamhead, if I remember correctly.

[wm cheng]

Oops sorry, so long ago... I guess I just lump all my resins to the great Captn'

[neptunesurvey]

I love how you got the main thruster bells on the booster to get that blue heated metal look. I have tried getting that same affect but I have never been happy with the final product. What did you use to get that affect?

[wm cheng]

Tamiya clear blue and clear yellow lightly airbrushed over top of Alclad metalizers.

[Dobber]

Once again you remind us why you are the MASTER!! Beautiful as always...I remember that launch arm display too, fantastic work!

[PetarB]

I wonder what Mr Mos-cah-toh! will bring us Macross fans next?

[Benson13]

What scale is that launch arm?

[Lobizon]

1/72 http://www.macrosswo...t=0#entry341193

[coronadlux]

Wow, I'm in love with the Commanchero Who in here is willing to part with their unbuilt kit?

[343sqn]

These are my finished Moscato models... Gnerl is on the way!

I was wondering... How exactly can a Zentran pilot get out of the Regult's cockpit? It looks like these guys must have developed serious contortionist skills, which of course would be hindered by their rather rigid uniforms.

And now you know why Max got with Miriya.

Bump for celebration of Mistah Moscatoh's Macross Modelling Retirement.

Enjoy all the cool modelling pics in this thread.
