  1. Thanks guys! No-Chang I decided not to attempt to light a $200+ kit for my first lighting attempt. However...my next project after the Falcon is complete is the reissue clear Enterprise D and I will be attempting to light that one!!!
  2. 1:72 Finemolds Falcon Update..Month 8-ish...Final Assembly--DONE!...Painting--DONE!...Weathering...not started yet..LOL. Total Lost Greeblies Tally---2! and they were so small no-one will ever know!
  3. Mac was AWESOME when I was growing up. I watched it religiously! I loved Murdock bad guy episodes and Jack Dalton was hilarious. The BEST part of the show...Mac could KNOCK out ANY mofo with like 1 punch! awesomenesss!
  4. You owe it to urself to get at least one Beta---they are no Yamato product...but they are cool for what they are..
  5. Finally got around to getting a cheap Red Beta Tlead/Tread whateverthehell you wanna call it. Got a low # Masterpiece (#433) off Amazon for $75 new in box. Couldn't pass it up...Red Beta's get NO love! ...so i panel lined and stickered him up tonight! Now....gotta track down a green one for cheap....doesn't look like it's gonna be easy either,,, If anybody's got one for sale...hit me up!
  6. The scene in the show showed it on the opposite wing from normal as I remember..sure somebody around here has the screen cap of it.
  7. After an hour in traffic in 101 degree heat to FedEx and back...... As JasonC mentioned...it IS dark! Anybody else notice the odd spelling on the inside of the box??? I like it...if nothing else...because it represents a bird seen on screen for like 2 seconds and it's a $100+ toy with an animation error of where the kite logo is on every other Valk! Gotta LOVE Macross!
  8. mine is "On FedEx truck for delivery"......not that I'm home to sign for it!...so it looks like a 20 mile trip to FedEx center tonight! whoo hoo!
  9. 3 parts....GOOD! Better to have three 2-2.5 hr movies than two 4-4.5 hour freakin Jackson fests!
  10. As someone with painted ones from the orignal run, I can vouch for the professional job EXO does on these!
  11. Glad I got the Low-Vis now...they do go together well!
  12. once you've gone black you never go back....
  13. thanks for the advice...I'm just a messy airbrusher..i always spill or something..it never fails..I'm trying to get better. LOL. p.s..whoever designed the "paint cup" for Passche should be killed like Braveheart style...no lid on a little tiny cup that you have to move around full of paint...brilliant!
  14. I'm prob gonna need 2 or 3 more sets...

    VF-1 toy advice...

    agreed. Yamato's are NOT toys..
  16. Awesome kit! Just re-watched it on Blu-Ray last night myself!
  17. LOL--I just threw you under the bus for doing more of these in another thread..you're welcome!
  18. I've tried future to gloss coat things before I do weathering, but I'm not quite sure I did it right. Should I thin it before I airbrush it? I just dumped it in the airbrush and sprayed...all that got me was a VERY sticky airbrush trigger and internal parts for like 3 months no matter how many times I cleaned it with windex OR paint thinner! For Benson...www.swannysmodels.com/TheCompleteFuture.html
  19. Has anyone asked EXO if he would be willing to do another run of his "option parts"? Seems there is a fairly large outcry for them around here....
  20. thanks! I know the chemistry got altered somehow....it seemed like a good idea...guess not. better to remix each time I suppose and hope it matches!
