I don't think I have the eyes, hands or patience for that... Well done! I realized I mentioned my new workbench but didn't post any pics: and I made some slight progress on the Mig tonight: clearcoat and the first few decals

^That ... and I want one... I've managed not to splurge on any of the VF-25s toys... there's enough models in my stash that I can't justify it to myself... but this? Just when I thought I was out, the pull me back in!!

Hasegawa, Wave or Max Factory are more likely (and my preferred options) to do a VF-19 series in 1/72 fighter mode. If it's Hasegawa, we can expect a full VF-19 set, as they'll milk those molds until the steel turns to ash. I'm personally hoping for that outcome, as I want them all: Basara's Kai, the VF-19S/F of Emerald Force, and the VF-19P. Some of the other "less canon" variants from the Masterfile or Macross the Ride would be sweet too, like the VF-19EF. I have spare YF-19s in the stash for those alternate White/Blue & White/Orange schemes. They're pretty! I also eagerly await a 1/48 YF-21... they might even make a VF-22 in 1/48, but I'll keep praying for that and world peace and see which come first😇 Either way, I'm quite happy to have this particular addiction of mine fed, so here's to hoping!

My ever-growing mountain of plastic crack [which ALSO includes all the original vf-25 releases] will include at least 1 Tornado... No, thank you, I do NOT have a problem...

I can see it in the final image when I expand it to full-size. Looks good, nice and subtle like OTEC materials and paint should imo.

@Papa Rat Thanks! Your Bellvine's paintjob is excellent btw. Looking forward to your Alaska VF-1 @joscasle Looking great so far! 🤣If they made it, maybe there's hope for us all!

Sweet. What pink did you paint it with?

Wonderful work! Is that a kit, or a 3D print?

😆 Good one! I was going to post the exchange between Arya Stark and The Hound regarding people naming their swords, but thought better of it 😇 High Telméan sounds familiar, what's it from? Cool name anyway!- 1165 replies

Thanks @derex3592 and @Gabe Q! Tomcat is progressing: Hasegawa's ancient Tomcat crew are... special🫤 The seats are acceptable though.

Heck yea!! Very exciting.

I've decided to stop lurking now that I have something to share, and time on my hands since I'm off work thanks to a Gallbladder removal earlier this month. After years away from modelling I have a remodeled hobby-room and workbench, and some nice new tools to go with it [absolutely worth the money... how did I model before them?!] I promised a friend a 1/48 F-16 as a gift, so I'm doing a couple warm-ups before tackling that: I'm doing him up a pair of Briefing Stick models using the Mig-29 Fulcrum and F-14 Tomcat in the Macross zero boxings. [I'm going to save the Macross decals for my own use on other kits] I think it's going pretty well so far, considering it's been something like 12 years since I've built anything... still needs decals, weathering, and the brass rods to mount it to the stick. Also needs a few paint touch-ups before decals/weathering
