    @Papa Rat That VE-1 is looking GREAT! Nice weathering! Great print work and designs too! I guess you're one of the few who still touches typesets? @505thAirborne Those helmets look VERY realistic and authentic (I can say that from experience😁). I had to do a replica of an old WWII M-3 aircraft flak helmet for a display one time. It's harder than people think! @Cheese3 No one will accuse you of not using your own original paint schemes - that's for sure! Cool designs and collection too! @LocusPocus Wow! There are A LOT of bias lines on that print. But like you said, good learning experience! Those joints you're installing will make it much better. @derex3592 You are going to have quite the 1/72nd Air Force! The paint is looking clean too. @nightmareB4macross Yeah, yours is MUCH better 😁 I'm predicting people are going to run out to their Dick's Sporting Goods, or local equivelent, this weekend and buy track shoe spikes. These were about $12.00 USD for 14 vs the same cost for just a couple from an aftermarket company. They are SHARP and DURABLE vs the aluminum ones that are aftermarket extras. You can use a 12-24 tap to make threads for them, or just use super glue! I saw these while my wife was looking for shoes. God gave me a great idea after seeing these😉 Oh, and this was supposed to be a simple 1/100 Z'Gok build to work on while sitting with my wife watching TV. I just couldn't get over that '70's look and thought it needed more "Machismo". I'll post more as I complete it. Thanks for checking in! - MT

    A quick comparison of all the ill shaped backpacks and their off positions. From a manufacturer’s standpoint their offerings make production easier, but a little more effort could have made the backpack a bit more condensed and folded in the proper GERWALK position. Just my two cents.

    Simply fantabulous!!! I do so enjoy seeing people bring out the best in my kits.

    You're not wrong about the gaudy canards, but I was still going for something like a racer scheme, so some bling made sense. For an actual military livery, I'm 100% with you that everything should get toned down considerably. I like your ideas, and agree that a sharper rake to the gills would be more effective. Wrapping them over the chest plate makes me think about maybe even something like a tiger stripe pattern. Something to try when I get some time. Have you seen the 31 Master File? Some of the squad markings they show there sound a bit like what you're talking about with the sword on the back. The one at the bottom right (below) kinda fits that concept. The sea camo one bottom left also gives a nice flow to the shape. I think your suggestions are good and will play with a few things when I get back in front of a computer. I like playing with the flashy race schemes, but maybe I'll try making it look like an actual fighter with the next go. 😁

    Yeah; he has that look of "I need a drink"...

    I agree about Pike's hair; it was better in Discovery. As for MASH; I highly recommend the show. Really good episodes, and some not so great ones as well, but overall a classic!

    Looks like Hitman, with some generic third person shooting gallery cover-based gameplay, and been-there-done-that Sniper Elite style parkour-lite? It's just kind of a generic mish-mash of various third person action games, not what I expected.

    Graphics looks good, but stealth mechanics....🤦‍♂️

    I would love gerwalk yf-19 &21. For sure. we definitely got the VT-1 in gerwalk mode in DYRL. So it would have been a nice package option.
  13. Thom
    I want to be excited about it, I really do...

    @Return To Kit Form Absolutely phenomenal work!!! The painting and the layers of weathering are just astonishing! Outstanding presentation! Love it!

    Yes @tekeringmy Ger was roughly 30 clams and it shows. Very brittle PLA I think and odd to work with. That being said, I got it to cut apart and learn some articulation skills (and rid it of the gimme- a-hug pose it came with). The hasegawa one will likely arrive before I can button this guy up! Like the mospeada kitbashes, it will most likely be relegated to WIP skill builders of which are invaluable to me 🤗

    Looks playable and sturdy. If priced well, this could be a must have for me. If we are getting new anime, I’m all for that as well! Twich

    I have never seen any of these shows. Episode 8 was another stellar example of a horrible story. I am so tired of Pike's hair. Again I like the Kirk side story far more than Pike's. I am starting to think i just has Pike.

    Summer Pockets episode 22 was so sad. I was bawling the entire time.

    Really cheap! But the yellow details...,mm,,m I'm out for now

    Y'know, I never really thought about it much since fans and licensees all just call the creature "the Xenomorph"... but I did some checking and you're completely correct. 👍 "Xenomorph" is an in-universe generic term for an unclassified alien lifeform. Lt. Gorman uses it as a generic term for an unidentified alien species during the briefing in Aliens before anyone ever sees one. They use "Xenomorph" the same way Warhammer 40,000 uses "Xenos" to refer to aliens... and Aliens was probably the inspiration for that too. In the Weyland Yutani Report and Alien: Romulus they append a catalog number to it making it the Xenomorph XX121. The extra features of the Quadrilogy box set for the first four Alien films gives the in-universe scientific name of the creatures as Internecivus raptus. Well, it is one of the only intelligent lifeforms in the series... 😆

    That is fantastic! Love the little pilot stumbling away like he just had his bell rung.
  23. Gabe Q
    Bravo! A masterpiece! I'm awed by every detail.
