WHOOOOAA!!! This thing is just on a whole other level!!!!..... All those microscopic fiber obtics....in a 3D printed model... How exactly?! I'm just amazed! Mad SKILLZ!

@Urashiman those Mac 7 figures look great! Good modeling time with the kid! @Papa RatHere you go my friend...My favorite capital ship from Macross/Robotech. The only problem is displaying it....doesn't fit in many cases 🤔 🤣

@Papa Rat - Thanks! It's been a GREAT kit! (minus the ridiculously waaaay to thin decals) As you are on a Zentradi kick.....I've got something you're GOING to want to see later on, hahaha...It's BIG and green! I got it years ago from a resin kit guy down in Australia...I'll post some pics this weekend. We just had flooring and painting done inside our house over the spring, so I'm just now getting around to carefully unpacking all my older kits and getting them back out on display with minimal snapped of little parts which I'm repairing as I go..... Stay Tuned!

Picked up this 3D printed 1:72 scale aircraft fully adjustable stand on Amazon for $35 on sale. Will definitely make life easier! The Strike Eagle 🦅 is almost ready for prime time! Should be able to finish it up this weekend!

So cool 😎

@Papa RatI can contribute to this! There has been at least one built up on here about 10 years ago! 😁

Absolutely incredible @tekering! Can not WAIT to see it painted up and on display! All your hard work and dedication to the hobby and material is evident here!

This thing is SO FUGLY and tragically sad looking it's almost cute, like an old little blind dog with two teeth that you can't help but love (I should know, I have one) 😂

This shall SOON be on my bench when it's released and I can get my hands on it to complete the 1/144 trio of The BUFF, The Bone and this BAD BOY!

I've only got 3 1/6 Hot Toys figures, Vader ANH, Luke ROTJ, and the newest Vader ROTJ. I agree, they aren't perfect, BUT in the right lighting and pose, the new ROTJ Vader is definitely a great display piece! The pleather will crack and fade in time, but some of their newer stuff they are getting better with materials as well as the head sculpts are massively improving from the reviews I watch. I would love to get Baylon, but I'm OUT of display space. 6" Black Series figs will have to do! 😂

Damn, I hope they sell that Ep III Anakin and Obi Wan as regular releases! Those look great!

Yeeeeeh, I don't care, I AM going to see this NO MATTER WHAT the reviews say! 😂 Bring it on!

Ahhh yes, I remember that stage of this build for sure! (and the legs, and the feet, and the arms....)😆

Another very simple solution I've been using lately (especially on modern kits with VERY tight tolerances), use Tamiya Extra Thin cement to "soften" the peg and especially the receiving hole for a few seconds. Like old Dad told me one time ....."a little lubrication helps everything son" - He wasn't wrong....😂
