What did you use for the pretend struts? I like that idea. I wanna use that on a Hase.
heh thanks Cmdr McBride, any more bad ass she'd be flying round the room LOL
thanks Mechleader, the struts are just some small sprues I pinched from a nichimo model. That n a little bit of glue !
ComicbookH, its a 1/144. Kinda tiny, but still looks cool! I wish I had 007-vf1s 1/72, would be twice the size, and maybe getting close to the yamato one, is that right 007-vf1? BTW, its looks fantastic! puts my baby one to shame! Does the pilot fit into that as well? if i had the space and the patience I would like to do that as well!
NOW, to show you what is probably 99% finished product! got a couple of custom colours in this, especially take notice of the missile bay covers,... nice metallic pink. Turned out well, hope the pix do it justice!!
Dont forget, leave ur feedback! B)

Heres a slightly better shot of the overall colour scheme.

* can anyone see my pink haired pilot! Mylene if she followed her mothers footsteps! heheeheh

Hey, still nice job going on there...
The pix with the 1a that has all the armour cept the chest plate looks kinda cool.. heh. takes the focus off the 1a head ! *terrible sculpt those heads..ugh..*
so how much were they gonna be again?

congealed blood red is this colour scheme
hehe
thanks for the colour of the cockpit, i think i might go with the grey and metallic idea with bluish shoulder pads.
were the bubbles on the shoulder pads different colour? do u rememer *love*, no no, j/k. do u remember the pilots colours much? sorry, i just cant recall.......
as for the blood red, its actually quite awesome, the pix show up the red being really bright, but its actually blood red with some red highlights. I will take better photos now its daylight.
ONTO THE COCKPIT CAPTAIN!!!!

Looks great! Wanna see it finished. Whats the valk next to it?
thanks mech leader
Glad u noticed that. Its one of the bootlegs that a LONG time ago I was customising the legs for, when i used to live a motel. Now I have a house, im making it a little more detailed in my 'toy room/model room'.
That canopy was carefully cut open. Im now making the inside cockpit, have some pretend struts holding it up.
Its kinda fun actually, resculpting the existing. Even the head isn't safe! it has an 'eye' and clear visor now, with neck folds and hollow point lasers too !
oh BTW, does anyone know what colour the inside is meant to be? I made those should pad things with the bubbles on them, but any colour shots of them ? Im kinda making it up, as you will now see in the following pix

Free bag of Jelly beans to who can answer me
WHO AM I?
WHO *WAS* I?

You think?
I might use black airbrushing later, the grey thats visible is kinda primer hehe*i was cheating a bit*
but already have made a standard green and millia dyrl version, so wanted to do something different.
*oh!! funny idea.
MINMAY GUARD QUEADLUUN RAU
anyone wanna give me decals???????

I certainly will be posting up pix when i finish Knight26. Im too much of a showoff to not LOL
And Shawn, I just used some super sculpy to mold the "organic" cockpit. The Yammy looks cool, but kinda sterile*still will try and get one though eheh* so mines rounded and less mechanical looking. Its rough job, but looks much better IMO.
BTW Shawn, u mentioned in another thread something like 600 models you have? How many have you made? I would like to see a pic of it actually . I have bout 50-60? macross, unbuilt, and thought THAT was a lot! hehe..
thanks Cmdr McB as well for the comment.
BEFORE I GO>
Question:
What do you think of the current paint scheme? It may be hard to see , but its shaded like the vf2ss i did from before. I intend this to be a sort of 'low viz Rau'. But im gonna paint the "seams" red instead of grey or black.
If i dont like it, it will become a cannon fodder purple. I just painted the green sanded areas, so tis all one now, but interested to see what ppl think of being an "all white with red n black paneling."
Might have to wait till i do it to get feedback though hey.
thoughts|?

If someone gave me one, I would build it
i once looked round to buy one for the heck of it, but were stupid amounts of money for somthing gimmicky.
You have one? Or thinking of buying one

Was thinking bout only posting pix after finishing, but thought I would do this while i had the camera out taking pix of those trading figures for the other topics..
So heres the Bandai quad I just got a while back. The cockpit normally is totally bare, but after some gracious members of MW posted the pix of the cockpit, i tried making it a little more authentic by customising a bit.
Tell me what ya reckon ppl! I like feedback.

oh well, another carrot dangled in front of our eyes....
Surprises are good. I just like knowing about them
I hope yamato picked up the tab for ya, for all this freelance info gathering you do! lol

. I haven't heard of anyone getting the special figure though, i guess i'll get to see how lucky i am when i open the box.
I got one!
Its chunky, i reckon it has more plastic in its head than the other figures have on their whole body!
Personally ordered 10and got clear and coloured of everyone except mac zero babe in coloured hair..
They look nice, which they held together a bit more, nothing some glue wont fix.
Almost as cool as the Rurouni Kenshin trading figures!

Family shot.
I did the green one first, a long time ago , or so it feels. Then shortly after I did the best job I could at the time on the red millia Rau, then now my latest incarnation. I definately have improved on some skills comparing to my old ones.
I must have made this one a lot better cuz i cna open all the bits, whereas the green i can do the middle section, and the red not at all hehe.
Notice the detail difference at all on the green cockpit n red?
theres just nothing inside them normally...improvement, yes?
