Working on Plum's SA-77 Silpheed and some equipment for the 1/144 MAXL custom. The part to the left will be the upper intake

Yellow/Aquila is the name of a fictional Erusean aggressor squadron from Ace Combat 04. Actually I like the idea of a gray underside color. The yollow color wouldn't blend well with the spliter camo in Battroid form. BTW if you're looking for a name for your Excalibur how about "Aquila 19"

What the ... I definitely need a few of these. I've started building an egg plane VF-25 based on their F-18 kit a few days ago. Actually wanted to do a VF-4 by using a SR-71 egg plane as base kit but those cost a fortune on *insert famous I-Net auction service*.

That's the TAYLAND 1/72 kit Save mentioned in his first post. http://blue.ap.teacup.com/tayland/img/1265206199.jpg http://blue.ap.teacup.com/tayland/img/1265466178.jpg

A little update. I changed the nose cone a bit and managed to pin the launch arm parts.

Wow! I missed a lot of great modeling stuff last month. Very nice stuff everyone's working on. I didn't made much progress the last weeks neither on VF-11 MAXL nor on the RVF-171. But this is what I got to offer.

Thanks everyone! Didn't had much time for model building the last weeks so I spend a few hours on the launch arm today. It's not very anime accurate but you can say it's an ufo-catcher Macross Frontier style. Thanks for watching.

I wanted to show some love for Bandai's the boob Valkyrie. Between a lot of mess lies a 1/144 MAXL Thunderbolt.

I'm changing my ISP at the moment and can't get online for a while which also means no update in the next weeks too. This is the current status on the build. I added the TARPS module, guns, and few small details before I got distracted by the MAXL Thunderbolt. I spent two days on this kit and have to admid that the MAXL is actually the best kit from this series so far. There's not much modification needed to make this beauty look like a display model. I've started with the launch arm today but didn't took pictures of it. Will add some as soon as Internet is available again. Thanks for watching. Yep, 1/72.

Thank you all for the kind words. Sounds familiar. But sometimes it can also have a contrary effect. In my case it mostly ends as dust collectors (Macross City on Protoculture relict ) or a pile of scrap. Always nice to see how some things encourage others to build more. Especially 144 scale Macross model building. Build a pair of ankle guards for covering up the sloppy joint between legs and nozzles/feet parts.

It's been a while since the last update. Not being happy whith what I did on this kit I put this project on hold untill 2 days ago. I was working on the Siren and strangly felt a necessity to finish this kit. And so I started rasping some parts and ended up with building a lot more than expected. Changes where made to radome and underside fuselage Added Oh and I also made a plain base for the RVF-171. New WIP pictures. Thanks for watching.

WTF!!! SRP of 2400Yen. That's way too much for a lightly improved version of the old Bandai kit. Especially if you need to vacuum form a new canopy, sharpen the edges of all the wings, air intakes and thruster nozzles.

It is 1/144 scale and therefor the detailing is good. TAC blog

Mine is still somewhere between unfinished and never touched it since then. Then was like...

Should have written mechanical design. The Japanese call everything mecha which looks technical. It's not only robots or piloted walking machines of death. Indeed.

That's because one of the mecha designers from Ace Combat Electrosphere was also involved in the design works of Yukikaze. The other Spartan. With opened hatches.

In fact the Engage Octaves are Valkyrie-II in disguise.

It comes with rivet holes and a lot of fantasy pannel lines. Moe~~~ . Wanna skip this one too? BTW the 1/72 kit also has movable nozzles.

Well as destroid already wrote. The exhaust nozzles in regular Electrosphere Fighters are like the ones we have nowadays. And the Super Flanker canards came with the kit. I remodeled the area for a smoother fillet between fuselage and canards. The F-15S/+ canards are made or styrene sheet. For this one I have build a pair of vectoring nozzles.

Thanks guys! It's a Nichimo 1/200 scale MBR-07-MKII Destroid Spartan. Here is a link to the main page for some reference And let's say I changed a few things.I posted a comparison picture two pages back. The green one was only put together without gluing. You can say it's what you see is what you get. Btw we have some very nice build Nichimo Spartans in this section of the forums. Thanks Berttt. I always try to challenge myself ...or just say I suck in out of box model building. The Armo-Fighter was finished back then. But after looking at those old blurry pictures I think I should take new ones. The Armo-Diver is stored in it's box. It was out of sight and therefor also out of mind. Thanks for the reminder need to finish this one and get rid of the box(Yay! More shelf space!). TSP

The first Destroid is ready for some paint action. Thinking of building the second one with hatches opened. That would look nice in a hanger.

Congratulations Destroid! I first thought it was for the ARC forums "What if"- group build. @anime52k8 Thanks!
