    Please add me to the list as well. Your engineering is fantastic!

    My first HI-Metal Rs!

    Looks great! The Spartan is my favorite Destroid. What putty did you use? I was thinking of using Citadel's Green Stuff on mine.

    Good looking unseen Warhammer!
  5. dbh1973
    Looks great so far, can't wait to see the completed kit!
  6. dbh1973
    Those are gorgeous! What are you using as the stands?

    Did you mount an LED for the "eye" or is that just a reflection of light?
  8. dbh1973
    Have they released blueprints of the VF-1's yet?
  9. dbh1973
    There is some good stuff in here! Thanks for resurrecting and pinning this thread!

    Please put me down as interested. I'd love a VF-11 in Battroid and full armor. I'm also good with $70 down and the rest when ready to ship.

    Pre-ordered from Hobby Search. Thanks Hasegawa!

    The "forest camo" VF-1 looks great. I'll have to try that on my next kit.

    Great looking build! Did you use a thin layer of super glue over the polycaps to reinforce the joints?
  14. dbh1973
    Looks great! What two kits did you combine for the Gerwalk?
  15. dbh1973
    Reserved mine at Hobby Search.

    Creating a Patlabor-style Battroid with police lights and a siren would be pretty cool.

    Here is my WIP of a Moscato 1/72 Destroid Spartan. Thanks to Viceland for selling it, Gabe Q for the instructions, and Mr. Moscato for creating the kit. This kit is an interesting challenge. I've never worked with resin before, and I've had to really pull out my bag of tricks: Dremel tool, 3 different types of Xacto knives, sanding sticks, and side cutters. These are the first set of pieces that have gone through initial cleaning and sanding. There is a lot more work to be done. The waist piece had a little too much Dremel, but that actually ended up being a good thing as the center torso and waist fit together almost perfectly. I'm also glad I followed some advice I found about working with resin kits: wear a respirator. I was not prepared for the amount of dust these pieces would produce, even with wet sanding. I hope to have more soon!

    Unfortunately, the Google Translate App is a bit hit or miss, in my opinion. I was hoping for an online resource but there doesn't seem to be one available. I've got a friend who has put LEDs in Warhammer 40k models before, so we're going to see what we can do. Thanks to Jefuemon for his link to Evan Designs. We will be placing an order with them soon.

    I posted this in another thread, but I would recommend Tamiya Panel Line Accent Colors in a single pack from Amazon: http://www.amazon.co...s/dp/B00M58FWVC. They are enamel based and pre-thinned with an applicator built into the lid.

    You can purchase all three Tamiya Panel Line Accent Colors in a single pack from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/TAMIYA-Panel-Accent-Color-3-colors/dp/B00M58FWVC. It's what I did and it included Prime shipping. I've used the gray color on a Gundam Astray model and they work really well. The capillary action over the Future'd pieces is fantastic.

    I wasn't even aware there was a translation app for Android devices. Thanks for this! Have you mounted LEDs into a Valkyrie before? If so, how was the process?

    Hey all, Long time lurker, etc. etc. I've been inspired by chaff.g's 1/48 build and decided, for my big summer project, to customize a Hasegawa 1/48 YF-19 with both photo-etched parts and LEDs. I've never put LEDs into a model before, and I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction or assist me with translating pages 063 and 113 of the Variable Fighter Master File - VF Modeling Manual. While page 113 is specifically for the YF-19, I'd like to have page 063 as well just as a reference. I apologize if this is the wrong forum to ask. If anyone has any tips or tricks to share about installing LEDs into a Hasegawa model, I'd really appreciate them.
