    More progress on the Texas this morning. All parts minus like 6 little super delicate posts are down on the deck ready for painting. Likewise all the sub assemblies are ready for primer and paint. Now....mother nature looks like she's not gonna let that happen out in the garage for at least a week and a half now... I learned my lesson years ago with the Cat's Eye 👁️ debacle about painting in the cold garage. LOL 😁

    Iced in today, tomorrow and possibly Monday down here in North Texas, so we're going full steam ahead down here on dropping down a gazzilion little as yet unpainted parts on the Texas deck! Also panel lining up the BUFF with some Flory's Black wash...

    This one is definitely going to be watched when wifey is out of the house and I can crank up the 5.1 Dolby Atmos. The last season of Clone Wars was a tour de force of video and sound, so I'm expecting this to be no less AND in 4K, yeh, it's gonna be fun to watch and listen to!

    Saw this last night, love him or hate him, sounds like he's right on the money with this one....

    This. Under the advisement of my boss/friend who is a huge Trek fan (of most things), not Sec 31 or Disco, I am avoiding this mess like the plague. In his words "awful, awful, awful, don't watch!" - I told him my advice was to go cleanse his pallet and watch "In The Pale Moonlight" from DS-9 to remind himself what GOOD Trek writing and acting actually looked like!

    I could see it bring a newer better faster variable version of the Ghost X9 from Macross Plus possibly??? Pretty good looking design I think.

    Great little prop effect @electric indigo! Over here the BUFF is getting some decals today! Those lines on the rear were slightly stress inducing but I decided to take the discretion is the better part of valor, easy-er route and slice them up before applying... But they look EXACTLY like they are supposed to look so YAY me? Academy thinks you're going to do them in 2 parts... Yeh.... Right... LOL 😂

    @M'Kyuun - Growing up in the 80's in Texas, I only had Robotech, GI Joe, Transformers and Voltron, so as a kid who didn't have any exposure to anything "international" growing up in the 80s (other than seeing odd Japanese model kits in old dusty hobby shops that I didn't really understand what they were, I was only looking for anything Robotech back then), I'm really enjoying the artwork being presented here. I love the detail in some of the landscapes pictured above. Keep em coming!

    When a drunken night between a YF-29 and a Legioss happens, THIS is the result....🤣🫣

    Huzzah!!! 😁...... and on that momentous note.....I am now pleased to announce that.... now we have a battleship gentlemen! Primary hull painting DONE! (and gloss coated with Alclad Klear Kote). Definitely more user friendly to me these days than that Tamiya TS-13.

    Great job as always @wm cheng!
  17. derex3592
    Yeh, I hear you @M'Kyuun, my inner 10 year old boy watching Robotech every day after school is screaming "BUY IT!!!" - I still remember the birthday I got my first Gakken Blue Alpha Robo whatever is was called. Pure unadulterated JOY! 😍

    I agree, I haven't ever gotten masking fluid to work for me either. I wish I could, especially on canopies.

    SPACEBALLS! The Action Figures! 🤣

    I gotta say, I can't afford it, and even if I cooould afford it, I have ZERO space to put that BEAST, but it does look pretty darn cool in Soldier Mode with all the hatches opened up!
  21. derex3592
    Yeh, I agree with @mechaninac here. Look how far these have come in just a very short time frame. In 5 years I can only imagine what will be possible. Crazy.
  22. derex3592
    HAhahahahaa! TRUTH!
  23. derex3592
    OK......I'm kinda in! Looks fun! 😂
  24. derex3592
    Same! Had no idea that odd black droid was anything other than something the model/prop makers dreamed up for that 1st scene at the droid sale! Awesome!

    Well.... probably not well. Arylics are very fragile in my experience. Speaking of which, so I hit the B-52 with Tamiya rattle can gloss clear and immediately wanted to cry. Never had it happen, but apparently (after some Googling) sometimes it will darken your paint about 3 shades which it did.. So now my beautiful 3 hours of work this morning is super dark grey and my pre-shade has all but vanished. Sometimes I hate this hobby. Very upsetting and I don't really know what to do about it 😔
