doodler7 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Looks pretty dope Jade! As for my workbench: Perfect Grade 1/60 FA-78-2 Custom ... I think it'll stand really nice with a 1/60 GBP-1 VF-1J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadefalconguard Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 (edited) Thanks for the feedback guys. Here's the first attempt at the diorama. Still very basic, some psoing around. The black line denotes where the 'prep' area begins. The main idea will be to build up a backpart also and maybe some lighting If someone got some good idea's, let'm come please edit : forgot the pic...again Edited August 31, 2005 by jadefalconguard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWR MKII Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 (edited) Be sure to cut notches in the side of the munitions trailer to allow for the jammer lift table to actually get under the munition. Have someone walking alongside the end of the bomb with their hand on it, No munition that size is transported alone on a jammer. Move the tow tractor closer to the nose area of the aircraft so it can be associated with its job. Also move the -60 cart from the tail to near the nose or make it look like its being pushed by 2 people minimum. Organize it like that and the scene will look a lot better, Its how its done in the real world . Also add a person working on the bomb rack your bomb will be going to.

jadefalconguard Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 HWR, thanks for the tips, I'll be adding styrene "holders" for the missiles, so the lift can get under the missile. Didn't think about the holding guy on the missile The other parts give the problems as the scene will be to crowded on the nose Thanks for the feedback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWR MKII Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Youd be suprised. The nose is usually where all the power hookups are and most of the electronics are too. Unless there is engine maintenance going on nothing happens around the tail. Your hydraulic cart is in a good place though. Another note ,while traveling the bomb wont be above shoulder height and will have a binding strap over it to assist in keeping it from falling off the table.

promethuem5 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Would it be possible to merge the UD Strike Armor with a Yammie 1/48 to create an amazingly detailed posable figure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadefalconguard Posted September 2, 2005 Author Share Posted September 2, 2005 (edited) Not sure, I don't have a Yammie, but judging at the amount of clearance you've got on the FP's I think it could be pulled of. If you can get me the measurements of the Yammie FP's I could check them against the Resin Packs.

jadefalconguard Posted September 4, 2005 Author Share Posted September 4, 2005 Allright, work started on the backplate for the diorama. Got a wooden groundplate wich is good for the metal tie down points and large enough to fit the complete dio. Here's an overview shot wich shows the difference in the lay out : here are two detail shots on the still bare backplate. Just the large details. Some leftover pieces from the scrapbox will be used to fill it up : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWR MKII Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Perfect setup on the equipment. Everything is exactly where it should be. Be sure that the -60 generator isnt connected while weapons loading is going on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
