Hi guys, I received all the parts everything is snapping perfectly, I already made few design corrections and decided to make the 1/48 scale drone kit available NOW on shapeways in WSF. http://www.shapeways.com/shops/xigfrid3dshop?section=Drone+Fighter+1%3A48&s=0 I am working on the 1/60 and 1/72 scale versions to make them in resin with a highly valuable member of this forum, I should shortly take pre-orders for these. The resin kits will be limited run so keep an eye on the thread. The kits are 11 parts for the entire drone, plus a Yamato Stand adapter if you want a display solution. If you want to order the 1/48 kit from Shapeways, I also recommend the Laser canon in Steel instead of WSF, but it works pretty well in WSF. Here are a few pictures of the quickly snapped in out of the box. Sanding/prep/etc will come later but slowly because I am now focusing on how to make them in resin.

I have finalized the design and put some updated pictures in 1st post. I am uploading it to Shapeways and will add it to my next order to review it. Stay tuned !

A few days ago, I was on the X-9 design when suddenly the power cut off and I lost half a day of data, including the X-9 files. So I decided to do something else but lighter to forget the loss.

You can visit my Isamu Bike section on Shapeways, there you will find three versions of the bike in the following scales: 1/72, 1/60 and 1/48 here: https://www.shapeways.com/shops/xigfrid3dshop?section=Macross+Plus+bike&s=0 Design finalized,due to the very small size and details required, this bike is limited to FUD and FXD materials. Very fragile and brittle. A few highlight for the 1/60 scale design: -use of Arcadia's Isamu figurine as the bike pilot. -Lucy should be figured from a 1/72 siting blond figurine such as Preiser figures -no articulation except for the black part of the wheel that should rotate in order to facilitate painting it a different color. Available here: http://shpws.me/IdVO For 1/72 and 1/48 scales models, you would have to source your own Isamu and Lucy.

I also think that yeti's stands are the best out there! It was easy to put some red paint on the fin to make the scratch almost invisible, I have also put some glossy TS-13 on the flight-pose tips as suggested previously and will test it
