  1. Wow, the blue angel scheme really turned it around! I'm not a big fan of the original Strawberry Shortcake Hot Rod scheme either.

    Now... I've got a dilemma on how I'll paint mine when it arrives.

  2. Arrhhh! Beautiful! Now who's gonna build the cat-launch for it? ;)

    That's it... i'm leaving the fast packs off!

    :lol: Verlinden Make's the Catapult Base for about 70 bux. I couldn't resist it and it's all done. Will get you some pics soon as I finish painting the Fijimi Figures. But that was also featured in either Hobby Japan or another Magazine with even more impressive mods.

  3. :ph34r: Hey there:

    I'd build their "iron" chrom version some time ago. Pretty cool kit and well thought out transformation. But as all plastic transformable kits are, they are just too fragile and are not meant to be "played" with much.

    As for the proportion of the kit, it feels "overweight" or chunky especially in robotic mode. Jet mode is better but nothing like Yamato creations.

    So that's all.

  4. Check out the site:

    www.aircraftresourcecenter.com There's lots & lots of techniques in their technique section pertaining to aircraft modeling which are great for macross models.

    Other than that I can think of cody's groove, which has a section on making the strike valk and bunch of other anime modeling in great detail.

    To save some $$, get through these sites and they should give you a good start.

    The american magazine, fine scale modeler is not too bad. Check out their web site first.

    I've been with them for 3 years. They pretty much "cycle" through topics with some updates. I mainly get it so I have some stuff to do before I go to bed.

    Hope that helps. There are many other sites. Check out the links of MW as well. Good luck and experiment with some piece that you don't care as much first before you dive into your "love"
