    I think I have your three covered

    FYI I own the patterns for the seated pilot in that link - man who owns which of the Captains patterns can be confusing - Brett

    Good news! The files for the 1/48 VF-1A/J/S DTRL Canopy (Part N1) have been finalised and will include inner and outer masks. I just have to print up some labels and get cutting. With some luck these should be hitting the streets in a week or two tops! - Brett

    I would be keen to hear about this as well. Most of the places I have heard about charge and enormous amount of money for just a few very small items. - Brett

    Tonight I mocked up the pod to the custom Red Gum base. Pretty happy so far. There is still more work to be done on the legs before I move onto all of the EW kit. Although eventually I am going to have to face up to fixing the paint issue on the top of the body - Brett

    Do you have moulds? You know that there are people (me) who prefer John's proportions over the Wave kits, who can't get there hands those kits after selling them in a fit of madness (also me)?
  7. Return To Kit Form
    Bask in the exquisite workmanship On another note thank god that the wave kits are being reissued. The current scalper prices are redonkulous! - Brett

    Teaser. -Brett

    Me too and it i s on the list. Just got to knock a few projects out of the way first. Canopy masks, The N-Ger and aome Zentran Infantry are ahead of the Q-Rau. -Brett

    Unfortunately no. Mike Salzo picked up both the standing infantry soldier and the officer/Kamjin kit as well as the Glaug. Send him a PM as he normally has a few kits cast up or good molds available. Hus prices are pretty resonable as well. I do have the pilot which is good for both the cockpit Regult and Gnerl which is available if you want one. - Brett

    More progress on the 1/48 VF -1 DYRL style masks. These are pretty much finalised except for working out how the fron mask will be packaged (single piece, multi piece, solid, outline etc). But the question remains; do people want mask to be able to paint the internal canopy frames as well? Or just the outside? - Brett
  12. Return To Kit Form
    Its a mixed bag on how the masks are designed, at least from what I can see. Some provide just the outline, some the whole canopy but in multiple parts. For F-16 canopies I have seen them as four part (left, right, front and rear) others as single or multiple part outlines. I'll have to modify the above example to be two parts as it was a bit fiddly to handle and had a habit of folding over and lightly sticking itself. The 1/72 version didn't have that problem but looked a bit ugly once applied as the middle creases up. The outline version looks nicer but will be extra work. To me it looks like there is no silver bullet... We sell via the Facebook Store, here eBay (although prices are higher there to try and cover fees etc) but basically any where that have us! At the moment we only have the Gnerl/Regult resin kits for sale but I am beavering away on these masks as well. That said keep your eyes out for another kit to come in the next couple of months. - Brett

    Probably doing the same as you - wondering why no one made canopy masks for Macross kits! While I wait for feedback from the samples I sent NZEOD I have started work on the set for the 1/48 VF-1 DYRL Canopy. Which turned out pretty well for what is in effect a first try. Next up to sort out the rear panel, and start on the TV canopy version. Speaking of which at this scale masks for canopy interior might be necessary as well due to the thickness of the plastic and size of the part. What are people thoughts on that? -Brett

    Great Lookin Dora Herve! - Brett
  15. Return To Kit Form
    Turning your own barrels? That totally next level - right on MT! -Brett

    Just getting my files in order. Gives you some idea of what is coming up in the future. - Brett

    So many good builds at work here. Derex that Enterprise E is great for the money When I'm not working on the WRC Scout, moulding, casting or tinkering with canopy masks I steal some time to work on these. A Mechacolle Elysium and my RAAF VF-0B. Elysium: I have the VF-0 gunpod up yo this stage: -Brett

    More progress. Grubby weathered engines. The story is that a Zentran team resprayed a scout they found in WRC blue but didn't bother with the rest. There Zentran why would they - if it works why fix it! The metallic blue will stay relatively fresh while everything else will be weathered. Enjoy! -Brett

    They have the VF-22 molds so why not? We can hope...come on Hasegawa! -Brett
  20. Return To Kit Form
    According to Tochiro on the Speakerpodcast Hasegawa have announced that they will be kitting all of the valks from the Delta. So here's hoping. - Brett

    Bleh. I really shouldnt post in a hurry. I fixed the above post to clear up confusion. Cheers, Brett

    Don't forget you can hunt down a Moscato Hobby Models kit or it's repop. I am pretty sure the patterns are out there somewhere as the other 1/72 scale kits crop up over at Starship Modeler from time to time. -Brett

    I just realised I forgot to list pricing which is AUD $5.50 or $8.25 a set which includes postage within Australia. International dudes add a flat $3 postage fee per shipment regardless of how many sets are ordered. - Brett
  24. Return To Kit Form
    Okay well for now I'll just do the canopy and the masks for the white part of the kite. Next week I am sending out sample for evaluation, so depending on what the feedback is I should be able to start cutting soon. Let me know in this thread how many you think you will want. Think of it less like a commitment and more like a survey. That way I'll know how much masking material to get and have half a chance to keep up with demand. - Brett
  25. Return To Kit Form
    Yep. Definitely a Hasegawa VF-1 conversion. Looks like there are some battroid kit parts in there as well. Might be a home brew job or one based on some drawings that were floating around a few years ago on how to convert the fighter kit into a transformable model. Pretty sure there is an article in the MW ModelGraphix (?) Section on how to do it. - Brett
