ok i finally have a update for u guys!!! first though.... Do u know those times where u know something is off but cant quite place it?!?! just had that kind of "Aha" moment found two things wrong with this battle cruiser.... the "Shoulders" where at the wrong position.. and the "arms" where looking like the Movie version why didn't i see that!!! well i have changed that, well in the process of changing it! first up is the re-position of the "shoulders" next is the first step in the new and improved "arms" also more sturdy

ok i have made a decision! while contemplating how to make the transformation i encountered a problem..... Perfect Transformation or Aesthetics (appearance and form) or both.... heres what i arrived at: 1. both is not possible with paper, theres not enough room inside the parts + durability will be a issue 2. im not sure plastic is durable enough for that purpose either 3. i dont have the tools to make the mechanisms in metal 4. Perfect transformation alone is not a pleasing sight since it will just be SDF-1 Movie version all over again the chest thrusters being the main issue, movie version chest thrusters dont move out from center ship the TV version does 5. Aesthetics it is, with my own touches ofcause Appearance in this case i more important imo. That doesn't mean im giving up on the both option! Some progress has also been made:

I love The gerwalk!!! Especially when The creators pull it of nicely, There are some mechas that doesn't pull it of so well though... When the nose is way to long is one example... The best gerwalks IMO is VF-1 and VF-25

the "arms" are rock solid... made of book binders cardboard they can easily with stand 50 kg pressure, maybe even 100 kg.... since they are gonna hold the Prometheus and Daedalus while also able to move bend and turn, they'd better be sturdy

ok Almost there! just need to make it all "pretty" again after having worked on it.... the "Arms" can rotate in 2 places and bend in two others!! need to paint it where i have made changes

Ok i was wondering, which type of varnish would be best for the main hull of the SDF-1 : Matt, Satin or gloss....? Personally I dont like gloss for this purpose, but I'm not sure about the other two types...? Any input would be useful..
