  1. I am so happy to see more customs of this design. Yours stands out greatly!
  2. I don’t know how I missed this custom! Nice job on this @sc_planet! You really put your all to paint this drone fighter I thank you for giving a try to my 3D models.

    Thank you, I was thinking to be the only one with this feeling. I will PO for sure this first edition, but seriously can we hope for a more modern color scheme after this?
  4. That’s a great price considering the work and numerous prototypes involved! I would be interested by the stl but I need to find a painter first I have two tips I would like to share with you: i didn’t see any display stand option, but I have noticed that it can save a lot of place by displaying the toys mid air on a flight stand. The most practical stand I have found is the Gundam / 1:12 figure display stands which have a plastic pin. They sell for 2-3$ each on aliexpress and can be found in any Gundam stores. And it is easy to design the hole or drill it. Buy pins! I have bought hundreds of 1mm diameter pins in different lengths: 3mm, 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm. 12mm. And never regretted it. Each time I am running short of one size I can’t imagine myself to cut the pins, sand them smooth etc. So I just buy them over and over.
  5. Very nice! How did you do the canopies? We’re they printed?
  6. There are a lot of details, I am eager to see your Fan liner finished!
  7. Hum, I have tried plug in gears and it generally ease a lot the 3D model. But I have never been 100% satisfied because you have landing gears lying in your display. So making them retractable will always give you a sensation of ‘satisfaction’. But if it looks really impossible, you can try to have a storage place to put the gears inside your model, that way you don’t have landing gears all around your display (that’s the case for my KF-40 and I like it)
  8. Woah, how can’t imagine how many hours this diorama represents! I didn’t help much, and you made a hell of a master piece!
  9. already done that with the Vajra queen and the Macross quarter! It last 10minutes though, facing 2 fighters
  10. I love the colors ! I don’t know yet if they will be available in Europe in bandai’s official resellers or not
  11. They existed as a plastic recast of the originals, I bought a set on aliexpress. This is why no one has made it on shapeways. You could check if they are still available. If not, it would be the occasion to put a model on shapeways. Let me know. That’s nice! I will probably grab a couple sets. Because they need little preparation and little paint for display ! if you can have a perfect mix to match the color of US grey like the spray TS-81, that would be perfecto!
  12. Perhaps this has been modified to obtain much beefier arms. I don’t know how much it will affect the look of the fighter mode
