  1. post-104-0-28912300-1439347305_thumb.jpg

    Where I am so far with my regults. Yes; 5 of them, plus the Glaug.. Preshading and base coat....

    But now I am thinking on making it a different shade; more in the realm of the greenish DYRL.

    I have been looking for bigger and better pictures of this regult I found pictures of a while back on the web.

  2. That would be impossible to have the same level of detail, but I can have a look and make one available in WSF material from shapeways if the quality is sufficient for your need

    Awesome... I wouldn't need it to be extremely detailed. I would sand the parts, graph the panel lines and add greeblies to it if that was necessary. I would like the bulk of the model and correct proportions mainly.

    If something like that was possible with the M+ drone it would also be superb..

  3. The the club is local to you and the members suggested Tamiya cement to you, why not ask them where they get it? Here is a great video for using Tamiya's Extra thin cement to help eliminate seam lines with minimal sanding.

    I think practicing this technique would be a very good idea for you since you are just starting out.

    That's a good video... Keep in mind there are exception where the plastic piece warps or even they don't quite "fit" and they do need putty nonetheless. Specially on Resin pieces you might encounter later on.

  4. That moment when you just successfully cut off all the tiny delicate pointy parts off the sprue and then knock over your bottle of Ambroid Pro-weld right onto all said tiny parts on your work pad at which point instantly starts melting the s*itty 30 year old plastic and bonding it to your work pad. Yeh. Well, I thought there was perhaps a hope in hell for this kit....now....it won't be as pretty as it might have been.

    Battle damage..Dimensional Fold gone bad... Protodeviln fart destruction... There's always a way to apply a personal, liberal interpretation of the events ;) , so finish that kit..

    I wouldn't cut the spruce piece at once with an exacto blade. Do you know the tecnique to cut brass or copper tubing while rolling the tube and pressing it evenly with the xacto? It could be worth trying to roll the cannon the same way..

  5. Does anyone have a clear picture of these guys regult?

    I am digging the green color scheme but the original web post pictures have been erased so I have no ways to find them online..

  7. An interesting work. I like to see the results...

    I have 5 reguls on my work bench since last Summer aching to be painted...

    I also believe the Bandai 1/72 apparently is just a 1/100 scale, since it makes more sense anime wise... Same goes to the Bandai/Imai regults and Glaugs 1/100's in my view are actual 144's... which is the scale size I am moving to these days for the bulk of my models.
