  1. I would rather convince them to make the 31A instead of the 31J!!
  2. Hello @ErikElvis, I am sorry but this time i won’t be able to take direct orders. Perhaps you can ask @valhary if he can find someone for the paint work. Depending on the base red of the resin, you will need to paint only the grey parts to add more realism to the X-9 and Sharon mini too
  3. I have painted only the grey parts in metallic gun color and I am impressed by the display-ability of this kit, great work @valhary! I plan to replace the missile doors with the stronger printed ones. I also broke the H-shape part that holds the opening latch, I will add to my toprint list. I noted that the wings won’t hold their position well when swooshing the X-9 around but enough to be successfully displayed in any angle.
  4. Not lost, shapeways need to review the product before it goes online, so maybe in a few days it will work
  5. I have put the landing gears and opening missile bays in a single file at shapeways for whoever want these upgrades for their resin kit (I do!). If you need anything else in white plastic, please ask me so I can put the replacement part on shapeways https://www.shapeways.com/product/MQ77KH6NW
  6. Hoho I did give it a thought, and at least I was thinking of making the inactive body which is stored in the Asuka II since it is a bit smaller
  7. Hi yeah, these display are unique and amazing. @derex3592 I would love to see more of that grey custom VF-31! I have just move in a new house and couldn’t unpack my Macross official boxes. I just realized that I could already fill a complete Detolf with my own customs figures!
  8. I am also thinking of making a few parts available on shapeways/stl version as upgrades. First thoughts for the landing gears because in resin they won’t sustain the weight of the ghost, so in plastic PA12, they will hold better for a permanent display. If you have any ideas, they are welcome as always, i would do my best!
  9. Hi guys, I wanted to thank warmly @valhary for his help in this project. He is taking over for the distribution of the resin kit because I have been very busy since 2020 (moving homes, new job, a lot of work in the house etc) and couldn’t even design a single part since a couple months. And I think he is great at promoting! Even I wouldn’t have done as well as he does @Bolt the material is described in the assembly Manuel and for the magnets, their dims are diameter 5mm x 3mm height. I have grabbed a few on eBay. I think they were N50 grade, but N35 would also work well, don’t worry.
  10. Thanks for the kind words! Unfortunately the model is high def and I don’t know how I could make a simpler model of it.
  11. I would play chess everyday with such a board ;)) thanks for sharing and happy new year everyone!
  12. Amazing build, you have achieved a true master piece here!
  13. These parts are looking great, the resin printers have a really nice finish imo! I didn’t know of these Vallejo paints, I should also check how good they are compared to the Tamiya TS and As spray cans
  14. There are a few skp files to grab on sketchup warehouse. I made some time ago the Beatrice tank from frontier.
  15. Ho! I could have sworn that the background was fake and photoshoped! Nice setup
  16. Thanks! As you see this is still/always wip... haha
  17. I am waiting a gundam base to take more pictures of this FAE bomb. Until then, I will cramp it with the other Macross Zero stuffs!
  18. Thanks guys! @Mommar esthetically this V2 is very similar to tte first version. The main changes are the 1) more compact/efficient landing gears mechanism, 2) front clear widow shape, 3) slight changes to global shape peculiarly on the bottom stabilizer which has been enlarged. 4) every moving mechanisms have been reviewed to be enhanced to be more solid and long lasting (bottom stab, missile traps, wings and Sharon seat). 5) super parts have been shaped more ala Tenshin illustration instead of based on the line art and use magnets now. I plan to make a video soon too!
  19. Primer looks ok, next steps will be to prime in white to have a lighter red finish.
  20. I am pretty sure that Captain said that his legios was 1/32 scale. But the box art says 1:48 scale indeed. I hope @captain america can confirm, because I am also interested
  21. That looks awesome You found a nice custom maker!
