  1. The wave kits are Brilliant! They fit together well. are even able to be slapped together glue free, have plenty of room for electronics if you wish, full articulation for posing and virtually all seams are hidden.
  2. that's Will Vales Viper from here in NZ. He used an Adruino board to do the lighting with his own coding for the "noise" that makes the engines flicker so believably. Unfortunately he wont share the coding with ANYONE.
  3. naaaa I'll do it right. Besides everything I've had from there has been pretty good... so far...
  4. VF-3000, VF-5000, VF-9 Cutlass...
  5. Yep... seemed like a good idea at the time
  6. As of 2am last night... 10 vf models in various stages... just started a VF-1D Strike Pack (Dual Beam Cannon Packs) of SVFA-69 Seal Clubbers of ARMD-03 Enterprise
  7. hmmmm its a pretty simple mod to make the feet slip in after painting so not sure they are required. Maybe a mask to go around the front upper intakes though.
  8. Looking at the 9 VF-1 models I'm building right now including the VF-1D Fast Pack ,which I had to slice the top main body shell in half with a razor saw at that same point the one in your picture separates at, I'd say that's a conversion of a Hasegawa 1/72 VF-1 kit. Exactly the same panel lines on the main body and wings as all mine and it appears to still have the tailfin locating indentations on the rear body where they would have been glued into. The cockpit has the same rear detail omitted as the Hasegawa has too... the two round rear cockpit vents that should be right behind and above the back of the seat that are in all the images and included in the VF-1D but not the single seaters...
  9. They are eldar striking scorpion mandiblasters...
  10. And top un like flight scenes.... maybe the macross team just needs to spend a weekend locked in a small windowless room watching topgun, yukikaze and macross plus on infinite repeat until they either break or get the message
  11. Definitely magnets. And it's fun fighting the tiny buggers when you go to mount the second one and the magnetic field from the first one keeps attracting it or causing it to flip
  12. Like the 2 Queadlunns too and the Gundam sniper thing taking aim mid street. Meanwhile... Made a quick acrylic template for a 1/72 Elevator on a Nimitz Class Carrier... and the VF1 Production line is back in full swing 3 x VF-1, 1 VF-1D likely to become a Scorpions VF-1EA and a VT-1 Trainer. Note... just finished cutting out a 1/144 Elevator deck piece too for the GiMix and F-Toys Valks
  13. Which are you doing? I'e done a resin one as vf-41 the black aces cag
  14. She's off to Rome then home to Germany in 2 weeks for a visit and even offered to grab any modelling stuff I want there. Guessing whaty she wants will be huge in return!
  15. So I got my butt into gear and starting building... Another Carrier deck... Another coupe of VF-1Js and VF-1Ds and a VT-1... Then found I needed some French blue for the VF-213 machine and some Insignia Red for the Navy Trainer scheme and the Diamondbacks CAG plane... some how... its a trap I think... but somehow the other half agreed to letting me buy more paint (I have a Shite load of it already) so off we went. The sense of impending doom only increased when she smiled and acted all happy... I ended up spending $140 at Modelair (thankfully open on a Sunday!) and spent nearly 1 hour in the shop nosing through all their stuff... she didn't complain once and even had a good look herself AND found the paints I was after... Once home she left me to build, complaint free, we had dinner and she then asked to watch Topgun with me....
  16. Yeah same as above as I have 10 VF-1s to do, 3 VF-1Ds and 5 VT-1s Planning on painting them in batches of 5 at a time as they will all have a base coat for Light Ghost grey and Ghost Grey before getting individual Unit and CAG markings
  17. hmmmm excellent! Finally a chance to add to my growing collection of real world sqdn markings on the VF4!
  18. Those writers/artists names... is it just me or do they kinda sound like bad porn actors names...
  19. they aren't tooooooo bad they just take a few nights to do
  20. On the work bench today between getting the Tuono ready for the Aprilia Hampton Downs Trackday... a new Carrier deck, a VF-1D, VF-1J and a VT-1 And over twenty present day Squadron markings to start wrapping my VF-1s in
