I'd love an Intruder in 1/72 - is that a 1/48?  What's the best kit in 1/72?

You might want to wait until next year for the new Trumpeter kit:

Armored Milia

There was a styrene kit of the Firefox in 2019, but it was 1/144; kinda underwhelming.

In other eastern news, I finished the WZ-10 and wanted to take it outside for a proper shooting, but the wind was too dangerous...

So here's another preliminary pic:

I doubt that it's economically reasonable to print a kit that you can just buy from a store.

Looks indeed much better, thank you!

The Wave kit seems a little stubby compared to the DX and the animation?

Tadpole

What looks good in any color?

Finally, a NETFLIX film that looks interesting.

Can't do wrong with Sam Ismael. If you haven't seen it, check out the "Homecoming" miniseries, also with Julia Roberts (and also with awesome cinematography).

Outdoor shots with more stuff added, I hope the next pics will show the completed kit.

Trailers are just too long these days...

So far I only snapped one Moderoid kit, and the large injection points are really irritating. With the substancial number of parts of the Deer Stalker, it took forever to clean everthing up even before even glueing things together. I love the range of subjects in the line, but the kits are not cheap, and the engineering should be a bit better.

Aaaahh...

Dune model kits are coming!

TBH even in REBELS Hera has always been a unremarkable flat character. I blame the writers for not giving her more depth.

But they gave her some tight pants for this show...

Who needs a live-action movie when you can just take cool shots of your model.

I still have not forgiven Aoshima for not making the Silent Moebius Spinner...

Added legs & tons of little stuff, this thing has more sensors than a deep space probe.

@SteveTheFish Thank you for the pictures. The finish on the Q-Rau is so perfect.

According to someone on Twitter, the TV version is still not decided, but I can imagine this coupled with a full Milia figure (like the Crusher Joe kits that came with a 1/20 Alfin) totally going through the roof.

Not sure who has this on his "most wanted" list...

Come on, Bandai – where's my RE/100 Gerbera Tetra?

Let's see where this goes...

I've got my eye on that 1/72 T-50 PAK-FA too

The Hobby Boss kit is trash, you should go with the Zvezda version IMO.

Gareth Edwards about the process of making "The Creator"

I used a glossy light grey shading over a Dark Sea Grey basecoat & Titanium Gold for the yellow bits. Aluminium sounds quite promising.

What worked surprisingly well is to fill all the little windows with white acylic.

@Chas the Cordoba is such a great design. Anything special planned for her? I always thought it would look great in a Chris Foss scheme.
