That sure looks sweet. Can't wait to see it with the Armds.

Dante, you should've just said that's your car!

That sure is one beautiful monster!!!Painting is done. Added a coat of future and started to do some drybrushing and weathering. Somebody remind me next time that I gotta put on the decals before I apply pastels. I started to on the feet before I remembered. Anasazi did a great job supplying the decals. Now I just gotta figure out where they go!You do drybrushing, pastels etc on gloss surface?

As for me, I think I got better results already. It's been a while when I really painted something with airbrush. And I guess new supplies need a little practice always. One thing I can say, Tamiya paints flow very nicely, and they're very good to paint.
This time I cleaned the model with white spirit before painting, and painted a bit thicker layer, since it's so thin.
Yeah, (Tamiya) painting guide by an expert modeler would be nice.

Ouch, I'm so sorry to hear that FM.
Yeah, I wouldn't keep any money there anyway, and it's not even possible to me I think. When I pay by paypal, it just charges my credit card and sends the money, and that's it. Well, there is the 3-4 days reservation time before it is actually charged from my bank account. But the payment goes right away to the person I pay, that is.

I just airbrushed Tamiya for the first time in my life (I ordered a big set of them). WTH?!? They scratch off so damn easily! I had a mr.surfacer 1000 spray can primed surface, and I used Tamiya's own thinner. How well Tamiyas are supposed to adhere then? Yeah I can/will clear coat them, but it still should be able to take at least a little of handling... I thought you can even sand them, but no, I need only to touch the paint with sandpaper and it scratches off. No chipping, but scratching.
This sucks.

Big thanks to Fortress_Maximus!

Actually that looks like Babelfished. Funny anyway.

Hahaa, I was checking stuff on ebay and I found this, pretty funny...
The price of the item is too damn high, but that's not the thing here, check out the description texts. Hell yeah.

That Hasegawa is just so sweet!!! Everytime I look at the vf-0 I like it more and more.
I find it pretty interesting that another company is releasing a Macross kit. Who knows what will happen in the future?
-
How about Mr.dissolved putty? I have a bottle of that also.
-
Of course I know that, but I can't afford every freaking thing at the same time.
-
What was the price again? I have temptations about this kit... Must resist...resist...Or must I..? Argh!

Finland, the center of Macross fandom.
Yeah that's true, UK is very expensive AFAIK. Maybe it should be some warm cheap southern Europe country, where it would be cheap to travel and be.
I think Finland is pretty expensive country also btw.

Yeah, I use Firefox.

I ordered 3 Dengeki hobbys, which included little kits from Hobbyfan once. Shipping costs kill me.

Kylwell, that link of yours shows as html code!!!

Indeed, I don't see a reason why would there be scratches if you handle models normally. Does it really add the price of a kit noticeably if it's dyed, let's say grey? I wouldn't think so. Of course I might be wrong.
-
Heheh, baffer.
-
Colored resin is also easier to prep work I would think. White doesn't show imperfections very much. And I think MechTech meant that the possible scratches don't show up as badly as in white resin. Just guessing. I must say I'm a fan of Captain's colored castings.
