Hi everyone! It's been a while since I've heard anything. Everything's fine here, back from vacation and getting back to work on orders. Thanks for asking, Sildani. Point 1. Regarding the orders, I'm still making progress with the missile printing (many - 30 units per kit). I need to get some strips of yellow decals for the final details on the rifles and then sort out the shipping to the USA. All the orders are about 70% complete; I'm almost finished. The orders with extra characters and vehicles are already finished! Point 2. I'm working on these new projects: 1:12 scale articulated bodies in civilian uniform for Scott (Stick), Rook (Houquette), Rand (Ray), and Yellow Dance (Belmont). Scott is almost finished; I'm still adjusting the tolerances on the joints and then painting them. For Rook, I only have the model in progress. Point 3. I've made progress with the 1:12 scale Synchrocannon project. This time I decided to switch from resin to filament. I've gotten better results. I made some parts in resin, such as the display case and the command handlebar inside of cockpit. I'll probably publish it on bambuLab, I'll keep you posted. Point 4. I made progress on this project before Christmas Invid Protect. Like the Synchrocannon, I decided to print it in 1:12 scale filament (BambuLab), and the result was amazing. I still need to adjust the joints and tolerances, but I think it's coming along very well. If the Synchrocannon does well on the BambuLab platform, I'll probably release this one too. Point 5. I have many more Mospeada projects, but due to the number of kit orders I've received, I've had to put them on hold temporarily: For example: Vacuum-sealed plastic trays to protect the kits (VacumBox). A vintage-style sticker album. All the previously published figures made with AI (RainyBoy, Kor, Serah, etc.). A short animated short using MOCAP, which would be a trailer for the next point. A virtual tour with MetaQuestVR, where you can see and interact with all the models at real scale. It might even become a video game! A website to upload all this content. StickerAlbum Pages VR Animation Trailer frame VR Video Capture MospeadaVR.mp4 Anyway, as you can see, there are plenty of ideas, but not enough time. I think it's time to ask for help. Or call the A-team with Mr T. I have more than 40 years old 😉 Greetings to all. Mekanimuss.

@Big s good recommendation. I’ll remember that one. KOG over the 7777 is about done. This one shows its age and I did what I could. Still plenty of spots I’d like to rework/dial in and may revisit it later but I want to move along. This train ain’t stopping. lol I’ll get quality pics later tonight.

Congrats and best of luck on the amputation.

I guess now that Gainax is no more, Anno and Khara have arrived at the realization they have to actually do work. 😅 This May is Khara's 20th anniversary and their filmography's so thin it makes you wonder what they've been doing all that time. This new Evangelion series is only their second actual TV series project in that entire time. Their total non-Evangelion animation output in 20 years amounts to one movie (Mary and the Witch's Flower), 12 TV episodes (GQuuuuuuX), two 45 minute specials (The Dragon Dentist), a 20 minute video game promo (Gravity Rush), and about three-dozen shorts with ~6 minute average runtime.

The 24 hour is a decent/nice version on the original artwork (pictured), but it still missed a few key spots if it was meant to reference that OA image. In reference to the OA image (pictured) the point of the visor over the eyes (front of the helm) has a curve or angle that starts earlier in front of the eyes and not right over/above the middle of the eyes, then the line (with a slight downward curve(?)) continues to meet behind the eyes with the bottom part. Also with the top rear part of the sensor casing for the helm... the OA has a slight/subtle curve whereas the 24 hour version is just a straight flat line. The eyes on the 24hr are fairly large in comparison to the OA. The front cover for the V-fin is block on that OA, but it doesn't have that peak and flat spot that's designed on the 24 hr (the OA is appears to just be flat across with no change). I'm sure whoever modeled up the 24 hr version used other artwork references of the Hi-Nu than this OA. I know it's not meant to be an exact version of the reference OA, but it's still a nice take/addon for the MB Hi-Nu

Hi! How have you been doing?

Nice! Liked that they released the complete (RSC) first and then later a regular Scopedog unlike Yamato, which released a Scopedog first then a month later the (RSC) which only had a red shoulder as a difference, then a month after that the (RSC) with Chirico, and later all the (RSC) armourments again as separate release! At least we got the full experience right away and can chose if we want the this Scopedog or not! but not really missing out if you decide to skip it! From @jenius at annymoon.com

Yeah, water color pencils are fun to use. I haven’t bought the expensive AK ones, but cheap full sets of colors are easily available on Amazon and art shops.

Hobby Japan Web has a nice article on how to weather a Scopedog model using new weathering pencils, from company AK... Probably a good technique that can be used on the H-Metal R series! 😉

Another Video review of the new Scopedog! Translation from the inside of the box! Episode (02 Uoodo) 22:18 "The warmth I had felt was coming back to me, and I felt as if I was being held by my mother, and before I knew it, I had fallen asleep. The place had a familiar smell to it... All I could feel was the cold, iron-like skin on my hands."

The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread

Go Better's stuff has kind of gone downhill. I try to avoid the 3D printed stuff these days, unless it adds something more substantial than gap fillers. I just had TCP ship my stash. It's all DNA kits.- 9493 replies

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next
mikeszekely replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I actually like SS86 Hound. Yeah, he's far from perfect, but as retools of Siege molds go I think his was alright. In other rumors, take all this with the usual salt, but... 1. I'm hearing rumors of a Pulse-exclusive set that will contain Ironhide, Bluestreak, and Mirage. I do NOT know which versions, though I expect that Bluestreak and Mirage will be Earthrise. 2. I don't know if it's going to be an exclusive somewhere or not, since it's not part of the mainline Age of the Primes releases, but expect another release of the Armada Megatron mold as Megazarak. 3. I've mentioned before that Walmart will have an exclusive Energon capsule line. Sadly, it doesn't seem to be based on the Energon/Superlink. The first four releases will be Cybertread ( a retool of Kingdom Slammer), Cybertronic (a retool of Siege Sixgun), Optimus Prime (a blue repaint of Siege Optimus), and Dark Energon Megatron (a black and purple repaint of Miner Megatron). 4. I'd heard something about transforming faction symbols that seemed a bit out there. Well, my sources tell me it's real, they're going under "Icons" branding, and the first one will be Icons Optimus Prime, who turns from Autobot leader into Autobot insignia. Retail price around $46, should be out this fall, expect preorders in the very near future.- 18179 replies
