  1. I hear you! I just didn't want to try to paint red right beside white. And I kiiiinda wanted the "Starbuck back from the dead pristine Viper" look if possible...I wish I had listened to 505th a few pages back and followed his stripes plan. Oh well. This morning I was clear-er headed and touched up the tail with a tiny brush and some good old basic Testors enamel red...looks pretty good at a glance. After some flat finish I think it will look ok. As for the nose...I do have a plan, and a back up plan. Just gonna take a little time to do it. Stay tuned!
  2. Nice Tumbler!... In other news I tried to do decals today.....some of them were great.....some not so much. The wrap around nose was a disaster which i had to scrape off and now have to try and respray the white and then mask and spray the red stripe. The tail is just crap and i dont know how to make it look any better. I have to say this has turned out to be one of the hardest model kids I've ever tried to do. It is a not very well thought out kit. Two thumbs WAY DOWN for this kit.
  3. After several failed attempts at white spray paint I decided to actually try airbrushing classic white model master enamel.... Lays down beautifully.... who knew? Lol..
  4. Incredible work . Super jealous over here. Ohh if they had only made the 2 other bikes...and even gone ahead and make Jim's/Lunks jeep! Didn't somebody around here make a custom in scale custom one at one point?
  5. Looks like a promising first release from Arcadia! I agree the new canopy color needs to be on releases. I eagerly await the re-re-re-lease of the VT-1 Super Ostrich (crosses fingers)
  6. How do you hide it in fighter and gerwalk?
  7. THIS! and nothing else! Hmm....perhaps I should start looking for an extra bike to purchase....
  8. The Chuck Norris stuff in 2 had me falling off the couch laughing at the awesomeness of it all! Loved it. Will for sure see the 3rd ! Harrison Ford and all the rest!!?? Are you freaking kidding me??!!
  9. Already have 3 Yamato Roy's..DYRL,TV Roy and Low Vis Roy...easy pass for me..looks good though..probably just the pics but it looks WAY whiter than my DYRL. Looks like the TV white.
  10. I agree---a video from battroid BACK to fighter would be useful on the 17!! I do it just often enough to forget everything!
  11. First few rounds of white spray paint/sanding done on the Viper this weekend...
  12. Great job on the red 17!!!
  13. ditto....amazing looking model. Great Job!
  14. Going with the canon scheme.
  15. White Snake, The Damn Yankees, Cinderella!!!, Motley Crue, Def Lepard, Iron Maiden, and even some Journey baby! ohhh yeeah!!!
  16. I like the VF-X because it literally looks like it fell right out of the anime where somebody just decided "hey...I'm gonna write TEST real big down the leg!" It's a cool looking Valk, and as other's have stated..real darn close to a low vis grey paint scheme.
  17. I've never built this kit, but take the advice of guys on here bro....it sounds like you REALLY need to start off with something simple. Some models go together well, some don't. Please don't waste your time and money on something you will get frustrated with and fling it against the wall. Ask me how I know....
  18. Well it would have to be way bigger than the E...I mean you can't fit a giant Brewery in just any old Starfleet engine room...
  19. Ditto....viper is primed, puttied, sanded, primed again and sanded again...etc...ready for white paint...may the Lords of Kobel help me....
  20. I finally saw this last night as well. I liked it! I enjoyed it for what it was. It looks absolutely great in HD. I like The Rock and thought he added a lot to the movie. I wished Scarlett and The Baroness had been back, but hey whatever. Rent it for a $1 or 2 and sit back, crank it up and enjoy!
