I basically want to do something with my hands and therefore looking for kits to build.

Do you guys have any recommendation where I can get kits for a cheap price?

I'm more of interested in snap-tight kits from bandai.

Therefore, VF-25 is my subject of interest. Yet, I also love building those MasterGrade models as well.

Thank you guys.

Hobby Link Japan, Starship Modeler store and my local hobby store (who fortunately carries a nice selection of scifi kits).

Holy crap! Adler's Nest has increased their catalog again!

I just wish I could buy direct. They do some amazing machining.

I sent mine out to a caster already....

Working on a 1/32 Flanker at the moment here.

Cricky! That's going to be huge!

Stuff like this...

Very nice.

If I was to commission John to master a model... it probably wouldn't be a Macross one.

But other than that I'd love to see some of the more obscure Macross aircraft like the FL-200 Mistral.

I like that purple tint bit. I may have to borrow that on an upcoming build.

we want piktures!

Finshed the fuselage color coats today.

Here's the top and bottom with their second colors on. The second colors are masked off and the masks are burnished down and sealed:

Third color applied of the first two colors' worth of maskings:

I'll let everything cure for a day or two while I work on the base or something. The preshading didn't give quite the relief I was hoping for in all the areas, meaning I'll probably use some extra pastel ninja attacks when the time comes.

Comments and criticisms welcome, as always.

Cripes man how can you wait! I'm usually dodging fingerprints carefully removing the tape. Just peel it off man!

Like it.

So whats next on the list.........

Ducks to avoid in comming flack

Maybe the Neon Genesis Evangelion VTOL gunships???

Hmmm, wonder if I can scratch a Space/Time Oscillation Bomb to make people think....

John,

This is something I always wondered. How come the canopies have to be vaccume formed?

Is it harder to make a clear canopie like Haseygawa makes for velks or any Plastic model kit out there?

Or is that its much Cheeper to do the way I see the bubble form made?

Reason i am asking is. I just always have a hard time with cutting that material when Making a kit. Example the mask for the Zentradi you have made.

Carl

Water clear cast resin canopies are a pill to make and even then are sometimes less clear & thin as vacc formed ones.

Awesome! Now, how do I use them?

Print them out and use them to make dio's, adjust wingspans, build custom mechs & weapons.

Built a series of scale rulers for those who might want such a thing: scale ruler page

I am a junior in KU

Reallllyyy..... If you run into Prof Jacobson, say hi. He's in the Department of Theatre and Film.

That's a nice and crisp recast MK; congrats...

Recast?

Soo, any hints on the price for the Rex kit?

One million dollars

I'd be happier in 1:48 but I'll take 1/72.

Working on the CC while building up a Gundam.

Those Wave Fenics kits are horribly engineered. Nice parts, but lousy engineering.

Closet is full, overhead rack is full, shelves are full... actually starting to sell stuff off that I know I'll never get to.

And this means what in english?

Ah'm still plugging away @ my Grille

Still on the Grille II.

What? No cockpit detail?

Guess I'll have to add that...

What am I building.... well if it'd been in Macross it's have been the Monster.

As it is, it's a 17cm tank/self-propelled cannon.
