Working from home does afford some late night building.

Time to work on the 1/8000 Zentradi Fleet.

The Quedol-Magdomillia should have been printed in two parts instead of one. So, I will be doing some scratch building a bit on these.

omg i need one of these.. xD

i still have the scans for this! 

if you are interested?

it all looks great ppl

on my end i have way to many projects active at one time, so i need to, once in awhile

finish some of them.

long time ago i bought a Bandai PG 00 Raiser gundam.

i never intended to build the Raiser part. 

since those parts make the kit way to heavy for any pose.

anyway here are some of the first painted parts.

Sweet work on that Lexan body Nyankodevice! It looks nice and clean (until you roll it) Is that a 4 x 4 or 2WD? I used to work in a hobby shop (some decades ago) selling all the Tamiya cars. I had a Frog, Hornet, and the Clod Buster with an all fiberglass chassis and hopped up motors/speed control. I've been seeing some of their cars are making a retro comeback - like vinyl records! - MT

its a 4WD.

and yea my first RC car..

the paint job went well considering its also my first time painting something on the inside...

just finished this RC car from Tamiya!

lol... lag

Last time I did an old Imai Macross kit, Bandai came out with the Hi Metal R Monster like a month later..

Let's see if I can get that situation to happen again... LOL!... Prepare the putty and the sanding tools! 

looking forward to see what you come up with...

are you gonna make some changes?

update!

made structural reinforcement!

they where broken inside when i opened them up... former owner had tried to turn them the wrong way.

deepened the main thruster..

removed ugly bar for bridge movement!

starting to reshape the main gun..

and adding length!

this looks great

That's too dirty for my taste, but lovely at the same time.  

 

notice the micromissile launcher is open and you can see the missiles if you look closely

any news on when the fighter mode will be released?

made the alteration which allows the legs to spread out alittle..

Above: i removed to side fins that held up the metal arm

then added a spring to keep the legs out in extended position

when legs are not in extended possition they are straight again

i resently aquired this 1/3000 SDF-1 Bandai toy without carriers

from Ebay for a resonable price.

i intent on renewing it and upgrade it

its already in a pretty good condition..

so ill correct some of the shapes on the toy

such as main gun size and lenght and shape.

Bridge. 

and ofcause make two new carriers!

not really... i did it to get access to the inside..

 

Is that a custom? 

yes it certainly is.

progress on my Sivil statue

next, touchups and highlights

i know this picture is of low quality... ill upload better ones later.

havent done the cockpit interior yet

Just finished my holidays work: Old Bandai kit VF-2SS Valkyrie II Nexx with SAP - the original kit of the 90's, not the reissue. Parts were all still in good condition, only the water slide decals are a bit yellowed and tend to break. but I kept them as it is a "vintage" kit. As for the painting details I tried to give it the look of the HMR VF-2SS.

I really love how the Valk looks in Battroid mode. But in Fighter mode the well known inaccuracy of this kit in comparison to the Anime line art is obvious.  The body is far too small in comparison to the SAP parts and all in all it is too bulky. Further, with the HMR VF-2SS aside the deviation of size is extremely visible. So this one will stay in Battroid mode forever! 

looks great... nice finish..

made one myself and was not satisfied with the scale of the various parts... so made some changes..
