Pedanticness train pulling into the station! I didn't say that no CF model has had "visor"-type optics... I said: While most CF variants tend to have "monoeye face" with a single large polarized cover over a multitude of optics and other sensors, there are a few out there that go against the grain. The VF-4A has a visor-type monitor turret, as does the VF-5000B Star Mirage, and the VF-14A Vampire. The VF-171 Nightmare Plus is also a visor type, as does the Sv-262Ba. ... if not for the VF-5000B's presence on that list, I would say all of the exceptions are General Galaxy's fault.😆 (Well, the Macross II Valkyries all go in on visor types too... since they've largely gotten rid of the A-type head in that timeline as of the 2070s or so.)

Ms. Yutani gained possession of all the Yautja tech retrieved after the events of AvP:R and The Predator (as depicted in both films), long before the Weyland-Yutani merger even happened... and of course Peter Keyes (in Predator 2) explicitly explains everything the CIA had known since 1987.

I went rouge and just went to it. I think for its tiny size it will look just fine. I am unsure how long it takes for Vallejo to cure, but I need to hit this with some lighter fluid to clean up the wash that I put down before painting so the edges look tighter. I may also add a very thin black wash to edges once I’m done and then gloss it up. I think it’s looking more natural than the decal. Not necessarily better but I like it.

Looks like it's out in Hong Kong. https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=pfbid02oM78cKjwJzeBwq9wmqFJCYAeQ4gmXfnY7pLSNmNYUZFD3ZpWgtWhSaKPovc6GSxKl&id=100064129081737 -
Yah, I needed an Itano Circus of missiles for the levels of stupidity I was dealing with.

Science and Technology MEGA THREAD
M'Kyuun replied to Max Jenius's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
The Boston Dynamics guys are all wiping huge beads of sweat from their foreheads-NOT! I like how the robot was still shambling after its faceplant- like an old wind-up toy. The sheet of shame came a bit too late. 🤣 Nice of the Russian censors to allow this bit of failure to go out unto the world. -
damn... if it weren't for tariffs i'd order one. looks good.

The computer and electronics super geek thread
mikeszekely replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I mean, I've done it before... But yeah, I don't think I'd do it now. It's far enough away that I'd have to charge my Taycan at least twice to make the round trip, and that's assuming that I just went to Microcenter and back. EDIT: Oh, sweet, I just looked and it looks like they opened one closer. Now I'd only have to drive two and a half hours. -
Really liking the colors & the greenish tint. Thinking it’ll look great next to the old Yammie 1/48s low visibility ones.

Try liquid mask. It’s great for those complex and tight spaces. Use a brush and toothpick to apply it. - Today

Honestly, the wash makes a great outline and will definitely simplify things. and that polycap issue sure is awkward.

I like this version. Reminds me of the Honda robot falling off the stairs a decade or two ago. Similar scramble with the sheet. Do they keep these sheets around as a thing now when demos go wrong?
-
Hand paint. No fear. Hahahaha
-
Oh definitely. And reissues of the Strike Valkyrie, Armored Valkyrie, VT-1, and VE-1 are long overdue.

Can’t wait to get it.

Makes the shapes show up better. Are you gonna hand paint it or use a decal?

That should be a must, and a VF-1D. Fingers crossed. -

TangledThorns replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Road trip, lol. Seriously though, closest Microcenter to me is about 45 minutes which isn't too bad but I hardly bought anything there for my two PC builds. There was good deals during the Summer that came after my builds though. -

I don't think it can turn that much. I ordered one from Mercari/Neokyo. First time using them. If I had known it would be available again on Yakakunow, I would of ordered from them instead.

With this release I'd love for Bandai to complete Vermillion Squadron in 1/55 scale.
