  1. It seams like they start out slightly damaged/used but maybe get a little bit 'more weathered' before he starts to clean them. Admitedly, I don't watch these vids, but the few I have seen (posted on here usually) I don't see any body damage work. Just a quick bath and BAM, ready for paint.
  2. IMO, it looks like it may look worse than it is to start. So maybe just a slightly dirty/cracked toy that is 'weathered' a bit more before the cleaning. I admit, I do not watch these, but I think it would take more than just soaping off parts to fix something that's been abandoned/abused.
  3. Chappy, Jeriba, Foley, the most memorable of his roles for me. Looks like I'll be rewatching Enemy Mine soon. Rest in Peace, good sir!
  4. @SteveTheFish Interested to see how that turns out.
  5. Definitely not! If anything, I might suggest doing a little more. From what I recall, Zentradi mechs are very old or/either very well used.
  6. @Urashiman I remember! It may have subconsciously helped in deciding to build this one. I actually wanted a quick build for a model show coming up in a week. And, except for some fiddly construction, it has been. That snow speeder is looking real nice, but don't poo-poo the VF-1 too much. She looks like she'll be a nice shelf queen.
  7. I think it's a little clearer when we put some wings on it. I think, I might know what it's turning into...🤔
  8. @electric indigo All those little, exquisite little parts are sure to make something grand! @Urashiman Sorry about the Plamax VF-1, but there are more out there to buy! As to the VF-19, I'm liking the blue. And that is master-masking! For me, I don't know what I'm doing anymore! Every time I work on my model it changes shape again. I have no idea what it will be next!!
  9. I'm of the opinion that there shouldn't need to be any tie-in material. Everything pivotal to the movie/franchise should be in the movie/franchise as seen on screen.
  10. @Kurt Great work on that JLTV. The wear and the mud really tie in.
  11. You know, I've though about scratch building one out of styrene but that was many years ago. You however, I think you could do it! Oh, and I edited my post so it didn't like look a five-year old typed it!😊
  12. I would love to have a NMC model in cruiser mode! Though maybe a little bit bigger. I actually started a little in surprise when the huge hands came in to grasp that tiny box. Nice looking model though, and that it is so articulated is great.
  13. @pengbuzz Awesome! Glad you got it figured out. Awaiting to be tuned!
  14. Having never played the game, I'm up for another fantasy movie with magic and swords and maybe some dragons. Not enough of them. Just please, don't be as bad as World of Warcraft!
  15. Well, I don't care where the term came from. It seems to fit, as I think most people are not liking it (IMO )based more on history than what it actually will be. As always, I prefer to wait until it airs before deciding whether it's going to suck or not. If it's good, great. If it sucks on its own merits and not the failings of previous series, then oh well, it's just a TV show.
  16. I'm actually more inclined to call it 'review bombing.' It's a teaser that doesn't show that much, so we know literally little about it. Cetianly not enough to complain so much, though that never stopped anybody.
  17. I think it's important to keep in mind that all models are interpretations by the builder that can be as dedicated as possible to factional/fictional datums or just simply as fanciful. Neither is wrong, especially in a fantasy work such as this.
  18. No, totally different. The tail rotor is on the wrong side. Nothing to see here.
  19. @Urashiman Trippy paint scheme! And lovely figure.
  20. Great final product! Shame it required so much work, but you conquered it in fine fashion!
  21. Such incredibel flying. Literrally inches away from success or... Wow!
  22. Sounds great when printing toys for the Scion though!
  23. @Urashiman Great that they won't break, but how will it do under paint? I imagine you might get a lot of flaking.
