Whats Lying on your Workbench MK IV
Return To Kit Form replied to Urashiman's topic in The Workshop!
Wow there are some great builds in here! I don't get a lot of build time in these days (the molding and casting bench is a slave driver) but am trying to turn that around this year. Here is a build up of our 1/72 soldier kit that we call Warren in the workshop. The face is buggered and he isn't going to win any beauty pageants! Not far to go now and he will be the first kit that I have finished in a while. -
The Official Moscato Hobby Models Thread
Return To Kit Form replied to captain america's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Your such a fanboy. Everyone knows that Rentheon used the profits from secret Chemtrail programs to pay off the Stonecutters to win the E-13 contract. Directed energy weapons would have been a much better choice than kinetic penetrators. -

R2KF Build it Comp - Winners has been Announced
Return To Kit Form replied to Return To Kit Form's topic in Model kits
As the hosts of the inaugural Build it Competition Chrissy and I would like to congratulate all competitors on actually FINISHING something. After starting with a potential 21 entries we ended after 7 months (a 1 month extension was granted due to circumstances for some of our U.S. based entrants) with 6 completed resin kits. That's 6 more kits no longer confined to the dank depths of their stash and have fulfilled their destiny of beloved dust collectors on the display shelf. The judging was a tough affair and we assessed across the following criteria: 1) Basic Skills (fit, surfacing and dealing with seam lines etc. 2)Execution of the idea. (how well executed was the overall look) 3) Finish. (paint, weathering etc) 4) Cool factor (how much the kit evoked the 'Ooooh: sound) The results were extremely close with only one point separating 1st and 2nd place. There was quite a bit of debate about which kit was the sinner but in the end a decision was made. 1st Place - 1/72 Legult (Cockpit Version) 2nd Place - 1/72 Interceptor Congratulations to Roberto Pagnotta on the competition win and Ted Ekering as runner up. Thanks to everyone who entered. Having a completed resin kit on the bench is the true victory! Cheers, Brett and Chrissy R2KF Models Australia -

Bugger! John likes to use standard pieces for detailing so you should be able to find some evergreen styrene that will work. -
Scary. I remember when the 1/72 VF-1A was the new hotness!

But they have still been doing it for 20 years.....

tekering's BItComp entry #1 - Gnerl resin kit
Return To Kit Form replied to tekering's topic in The Workshop!
Great Mods Ted! Which LEDs did you use? The look like little self contained ones? And we ever issue a V.2 of this kit I'll shamelessly steal your vernier thruster idea for the side panels. They look great! Oh and do the missile doors still open? Cheers, - Brett -

Return To Kit Form replied to ChristopherB's topic in Model kits
Just a heads up that the deadline has been extended. The decision was based on the votes in the FB poll and the fact that one of the contestants @Bolt has been without electricity for over a week. So the deadline is four weeks from when Bolt get the lights back on. Cheers, Brett- 9 replies

I'm not sure how you type out a whistling sound - because that is the sound I made when I saw the finished kit. Great work Ted! - Brett -
Bolt’s Blt comp entry#1 Neo Grade VF1 Armored Valkyrie
Return To Kit Form replied to Bolt's topic in The Workshop!
Sorry to hear about the drama Bolt. But I think you'll be okay WRT the deadline. I have put a poll up with some proposed deadline extensions but also the option to not extend it. Unless there are some cruel folks out there only in it for themselves I think we will be able to give you more time. Good luck and stay safe. Brett -

MMM A vac formed visor upgrade item is needed I think. I'll need to send them out to customers of course but if that visor isn't usable even after cleaning up and polishing then there is nothing else for it. - Brett -
tekering's BItComp entry #1 - Gnerl resin kit
Return To Kit Form replied to tekering's topic in The Workshop!
I've thought about this. What if maintenance wasn't done not only because they didn't know how to but also because it couldn't be done and wasn't needed.?We saw how reliable that Zentreadi weapon was in Frontier after centuries of floating around an ancient battlefield. What if the manufacturing techniques involved some sort of advanced methods where drive and power units are sealed and maintnenance free. Perhaps mecha were more likely to be totally destroyed and replaced with stock from the automated factories than break down? - Brett -
