  1. Looking forward to see the text prints! 👍
  2. I wonder if Nagano had an advance release of Midjourney AI when he designed these...
  3. I did a quick & dirty check in PS - you nailed the nose, but the canopy could be even less steep (no idea if this would leave too little room for the pilot, though). Also, if you raise the lower frame of the canopy, it would look sleaker. I wonder if you could make the panel lines with a V-shaped cross section? This would give a more scale-adequate appearance. But I have no idea how this affects printing.
  4. Hmm, going by the lineart, the curve of the canopy should be less steep. Did you put a pilot in there for dimensions? http://www.macross2.net/m3/macrossga/vf-9/vf-9-fighter-schematics.gif
  5. The Club-M kit is a bit more elegant in design IMO, and I prefer the lack of panel lines compared to the plastic kit. Still, I figure it would be hard to sell against the Wave version.
  6. The latest sessions were spent pasting 1 million stencils & I painted the dielectric panels today.
  7. The graphic impact of the Armored Valkyrie is just great.
  8. Tried "The Gray Man" for Gosling, but had to quit after 40 minutes. I was painfully bad.
  9. Brother from another mother https://twitter.com/RealAirPower1/status/1554851888197140481
  10. I haven't tried it yet, but this looks like a cool method to fix silvering of decals after the application: https://hiqparts.info/archives/1350 (run it through google translate)
  11. I have a jar of Kosutte (a lifetime supply), but it's not available any more (probably because it's mostly made of toxic lead or something). There seems to be a replacement product: https://www.hlj.com/c1-metalizer-c1m1001 Oh and graphite powder from the hardware store provides good results if you just want a slight sheen.
  12. There is a "stealth grey" paint that has metallic pigments in it, but it seems to be available in Japan only. My approach would be to polish the flat grey slightly with metalizer or graphite powder.
