    Thor has been 3d printing large scale Battletech kits and he of course has printed the Destroids, which were "borrowed" by FASA for the first run of BT.

    They are 1/60 by BT standards but 1/48 in Macross relations. Fully poseable and printed in abs plastic so its very lightweight.

    Drop him a line cause Im not sure what he charges for these at the moment.

  2. Y'know, I had almost forgotten I had that kit at all. I havnt touched it in years. I got about 3/4 of the way thru the assembly but put it aside as I got distracted with something else.

    I should get back to it.

    Wasnt there some talk a while back about someone mastering one in 1/2500? Id pay good money for that!

  3. I like what you've done with the rotor blades, I dont like the ones from the kit either.

    Ive been taking awhile with mine mainly because off the whole tail section. I must have gotten a bad cast because the resin is so soft its almost like playdoh.

    It would sag after awhile and I would hot water it back to alignment and a few weeks later do it all again.

    I finally decided to cut the tail off along the panel line and then drill deep into both ends. This way I was able insert a 2 inch brass rod in there and glue both sections back together. It doesnt sag now.

    Thanx to your idea with the rotors I know where to go now.

    I'll be posting some photos soon.
