So it appears that none of these links are working anymore?

Some more WIP shots:

The repaired paint.

That is exceptional! That’s a great model and great display.

Same, same and same. It’d be disappointing if to get that set as preordered early and at the same time. Oh well we’ll see what happens. I ordered the hguc Gallus J as soon as it popped up from hlj and noticed that it looks like I somehow missed it!

Looking good Tek!

Awesome 👏 looks great!

Here’s the white over black primer. Next is the violet to correct the camo blob.

There was a scratch across this section that I didn’t notice until the camo was applied.. I’m buffing it out and now ready to repaint.

I’m laying it down as a soft edge rather than the hardline in the profile… although I may give it a tighter line.

All of what big said; I’ve had success removing decals by carefully sanding them off and doing a bit of touch ups with the airbrush and then reapplying new decals. Just take your time.

Some painting - Mr. Color 1 white over black 1500 surfacer using post shading and some stencils

I think you nailed it Big! I was thinking of it like a “GU-11 mk. ll” since it has a different profile and is larger than the Hs version.

Thank you! I’ll keep that in mind.

Looks right to me…and is accurate to the design source. I suppose as long as the anti-glare panel is black or flat, the outside canopy colour should not impede the pilot's vision. Just wait till you see the next one, lol!

Thanks Bolt!

Thanks! I’m going to finish priming in black and the build up with Mr. Color 1 white until it’s fairly light then I have a Mr. Color gundam violet that is very close for the top. I’m thinking I’ll feather it instead of a hard edge, kind of like the F-15.

It’s just a one piece model, I don’t know why they extend - maybe it retracts for landing and hook deployment? I thought it looked alright so I went with it!

I cut up a bunch of wings to drop flaps on my angel bird build but I was able to gather up enough parts to reassemble complete wings. 🍀 lucky.

1J head in primer, barrels drilled out.

Tail boom - I’m using some of the photo etch kit here and there.

I ran out of Hasegawa GU-11s but I found this 80s one from the 1A Battroid kit, not sure which boxing but it was tan. The plastic was a bit brittle and it fell apart on me; I rebuilt it and added aluminum gun barrels. Beefy!

The canopy with the kit comes a little too short, so I’ve extended it with a bit of sheet stock.

Here’s the Livery. I don’t think it matches the armored valk model that appears in the magazine but I’ll do my best interpretation of this profile.

Hey All, I started working on another Model Graphix Decal sheet bird! Here’s some wips of the fuselage. The thrusters are finished and will be taped up. I’ve tried a different mounting method for this VF; note the socket in the gear bay. I’ve also noticed that the 1J head does not fit in without splaying open the arms of the cockpit section, so I’ve dropped a couple of mm to allow it some clearance. I also corrected angle of the legs.
