That's actually a pretty good idea. Would the Hasegawa version work as well?

I’m not sure which cartridge you mean. I only looked at their list of compatible printers like the HP Color LaserJet Pro M 252, I can buy that one on Amazon for cheap.

They are actually for your every day color laser printer like an HP LaserJet

It will suit my needs of printing white lettering and white backgrounds for color decals.

Oh definately, I’ve used it for that very purpose. I bought a whole role of paper backed sticky vinyl at the sewing store where they sell supplies for the scan n cut. I think another cheap option is the Cricut, which you can get at major arts and crafts stores.

In the demos I saw they did it in a two step process.

it's the only one that has a built in scanner. If you have a line drawing or a pattern that you'd like to cut, you scan it in, it detects the outlines and then it will cut them out for you. Afterwards you can save the pattern and use it over and over. The software for it is pretty sophisticated and there's is an accompanying website where you can design or modify your patterns and then upload them wirelessly to the machine or vice versa.

Search YouTube for "brother scan n cut 2"... you'll cry at the possibilities. I haven't seen any videos where it is being used for modeling purposes but you can extrapolate what it could do and it is invaluable to me.

I know right? I almost fell out of my chair when I found this. Oh, you don’t need a deficated vinyl cutter for personal use. I have a Brother Scan-n-Cut that is a modelers dream com true. Cut vinyl, styrene, thin wood, etc.

I searched in this forum to check if this had been posted somewhere else but I didn't find anything. I just found this last night, there is a German company making white printer toner cartridges for numerous HP, Canon and Lexmark laser printers. https://www.ghost-white-toner.com/ You just swap out the black cartridge for the white, I've seen printed examples on a railroading site, and there are several YouTube videos about it. The cartridges are a bit expensive but one should last you several years.

I don't even remember that thing from Macross Zero??

1/72 the only scale that matters

Oh cool! I'll take a non-transforming one now!

Why is the VF-31A Kairos listed as discontinued on the HLJ site? It was supposed to be released this month.

Here's shots of the stash

Hey thanks!

It's a Wells Fargo stagecoach, it's a commision build, it started as a kit but I've replaced almost everything. It's even held together with threaded square bolts and nuts that I had to make. It's been a lot of custom metal work, which has been a learning experience but not that fun. Kinda sick of working on it but it's for a friend so I keep trudging along.

Wow the Gallant Rifle video is awesome! I want one!!!

I am building, just not Macross models. I've been stuck on the same project for several years now. I won't allow myself to build anything else until it's done (driving me a little crazy).

wow great job on that camo!

I think you mean Tanmen and they are no longer available and haven't been for many years.

I've been painting Imperial Assault figures like crazy lately

You could always call it the Rankor

Omg that was the kit I was gonna recommend he get in case the wood doesn't pan out. That is totally cool of you Thom! Welcome to a true modelers forum, KARMA BOMB!
