  1. I love it all man, down to the last detail! That came out AAA-AWESOME!!! - MT
  2. AWESOME build! Who says bigger isn't better!-MT
  3. That DEFINITELY blows away any of the other previosly versions of this model! I love the backpack details, especially the engines.-MT
  4. I have the same problem with Sharpies. The top coat or surrounding colors clog the pores of the applicator tip. You're stuck having to accent first and clearcoat later. My oil based metalic markers are the same. They prefer clean plastic since they pick up/melt the finish. Hopefully the Tamiya markers fair better.-MT
  5. That's lookin' awesome! Love the hand design and use of the pull chain!- MT
  6. Great buildup and it's great how you're sharing your techniques! - MT
  7. Nice touch with the diorama display. - MT
  8. He he, I was talking about the model photo with the pin vise in it, but oweee again. I tore my thumb open disconnecting my shop vac for cleaning when the screwdriver slipped out of the connecting tab. Two weeks later it's finally healed! Glad your back at the bench!-MT
  9. I was gonna clown about the pinvise stuck in the hand of the model, but real pain- OWEEEEEeeee! Heal up! - MT
  10. That's gonna look cool when you're done! I always loved that mecha.- MT
  11. Thank you very much guys - again- for all the compliments! I appreciate all the positive feedback and humor! It was a joy to build the Daedalus and share my passion with everyone. My brain is already working the mechanics for he next version. How to make it simpler and cost effective to make (and you guys buy a copy that want one). I'm trying to keep it mostly styrene too! Still working on the international video version for you guys across the ocean! - MT
  12. Thanks for going through this build-it's looking great. I've used styrofoam block for support with projects like this. Expanding foam will litterally blow out your work as it expands-found that out the hard way! A good cheap razor knife will make quick work of the foam. Uhu "Creativ" will glue the foam to the paper.-MT
  13. They look great! Down-loaded a copy maybe for use some day, thanks! - MT
  14. I've heard of people either using shallow trays with paint or paint laden felt or sponges that you lay the missiles on. I think MW Cheng made those up once too.- MT
  15. I'm weary of any kit with cute bunnies on it that says "dance", but hey I'm just weird that way :-) - MT
  16. I like te graphics on it! - MT
  17. I like the scheme!-MT
  18. Looks cool, nice touch!-MT
  19. Can't see the Monster...-MT
  20. That sucker just needs fastpacks now! Too cool! -MT
  21. Welcome Potatotomato to MW! Experiment with the sprue before touching your model. Chyll2 Made a good reccomendation with polishing. If cleaning causes causes burnish marks adjacent to the cutting point, just use a flush cutter and try a Sharpie marker. Paint markers are the next best thing for chromed parts (gold or silver). Those metalic coatings aren't easy to clean up. Hope that helps!-MT
  22. I love pickles, especially Zentraedi pickles! You made them look great! You make me want to crack open my set. I suddenly have the urge for pickled okra...-MT
  23. I like the Old Man version better myself too! The colors look more realistic and the shading makes it more lifelike (at least on my phone)-MT
