Thank my wife for that: she ended up finding the head behind her computer (I literally couldn't find it after throwing it across the room!). It doesn't look all that much like Peter Weller, but I did my best. *I HATE Robert Burke and Richard Eden's versions; they look plain weird!*

@derex3592Thom's right, derex; those wheels are going to darken anyways due to road grime and other stuff. The darker color will actually work for you on this!!

On that note: http://www.macross2.net/m3/macrossplus/stellarwhaleliner.htm Must make for some interesting passenger cruises.

Top Gun: Maverick (Top Gun 2 is comin)
pengbuzz replied to Ladic's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I wonder what Viper and Jester are doing these days; shuffleboard at the Lake Miramar Retirement Airstrip? -
That's coming up: I'm getting ready to use 0000 grade steel wool to buff the armor, them clearcoat, then the transparent colors for the subtle effects. BTW: I finally managed to get a functioning unhelmeted head (second pic).

I'd like to see a model of the Macross Cannon myself.

"Madame Web". Yup...her damn web is stuck all over my shoe. EEEECCCHHHH!!!!

Yup! for taking out the trash. With that in mind, he needs something to put it in:

Thinking about it, I agree that I wouldn't trust floor polish alone. Let me look to see if I can find an acrylic version. UPDATE: I wonder if this would work: https://www.jerrysartarama.com/liquitex-professional-acrylic-ink-30ml-iridescent-bright-gold-83645?srsltid=AfmBOorupxvk64KMFflr5SIj63SRh73HpbJBIeSO5bSk3pXI6TS_5qkOafw

BTW: if anyone needs to do a gold-tinted canopy on their fighter model(s), someone at ARC Forums found a way to do it without making them opaque: http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index.php?/topic/305865-techniques-for-recreating-gold-tinted-canopies/ Specifically: https://www.hobbylinc.com/gunze-sangyo-clear-gold-gloss-18ml-bottle-hobby-and-model-lacquer-paint-gx111 (note: since it's a lacquer, you should user pledge with future shine or an acrylic to protect your canopy before application)

A brief update:

That would be the in-movie show It's Not My Problem!, starring Bixby Snyder: https://robocop.fandom.com/wiki/It's_Not_My_Problem! And I like that idea; going to see about that later if I feel better tonight. Thanks!

What Current Anime Are You Watching Version v4.0
pengbuzz replied to wolfx's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Decided to finally watch a short 3-part OVA: Cyber City Oedo 808 -
No problem. And thanks! Thanks man! Going to be slowing down a bit, as I'm sick with a nasty cold (first chest, then head ). I plan though on making a discarded newspaper lying on the ground somewhere, and a knocked-over trashcan (found a tutorial for making it from heavy foil pie tins).

UPDATE: I proceeded with the diorama backdrop- Used everything from spray paint to melt the foam, to plaster of paris, to everything in between. Hopefully, it looks a little more now than painted foam: Custom "Delta City" mini-poster I sketched using refs from the movie (along with a citizen's "opinion" about it): And one last shot: Still stuff to do, but I hope I at least got this diorama right. Stay tuned...

*Surprised after Project Supernova Col. Johnson didn't load Isamu into a Lancer in cold storage and fire him towards the nearest black hole*

Wow...that feller is yeller.... O.o

Yeah; they had 1/6 heads for Murphy, but none now. I'd settle for a spare Horizon Robo head to modify.
-
Yeah; that's where Prometheus and Daedalus came from IIRC. I had forgotten they stripped the island for stuff; but I still think that it would make for a nice forward post for the sol system (some assembly required).
-
Gotcha; that said, if the island still held together, it might make for a decent perimeter station at least.
-
So, is South Ataria Island still floating in the vicinity of Pluto? Makes me wonder how much it would take, but could they conceivably convert that into a satellite city? (if it's even possible; probably not but as a pengbuzz I must ask, since it has buildings in place as well as facilities.)
