  1. Here's my first completed Macross subject! I did add some ground crew since these shots.
  2. Great idea and looks very cool. Interesting info Neozod!
  3. I have a spare canopy you can have...msg me.
  4. Sizing looks awesome! It isn't called "Super dimensional" for nothing! Nice job Mike!
  5. Great job on the photos! and interesting discussion on the weathering.. I had always assumed that clean, new paint jobs would be high gloss (i.e. Blue Angels) and then worn surfaces would be dull/matte. I will investigate this concept on my 1/72 Angel Bird that I'm working on. Another important element to not forget about is scale - something in 1/35 would appear to be approx. 20' away from your p.o.v in 1/1 or real life; if you look at something like that, a car or a train, some of the 'dirt' or grim isn't visible anymore in that perspective!
  6. I thought it was well done, very watchable film and interesting concept and themes. The hand held camera added a lot of grittiness and texture. I thought it emphasized how the characters and citizens in the furthest districts were just teetering on the brink. The tributes' battle was pretty intense and pretty dark. I'm looking forward to the next one. Oh, and it was a cool homage to Battle Royal which the director acknowledged as one of his influences.
  7. I have a set of those coming! I love the hasagawa set, so we'll have to see how these compare! cheers

    Cool! Love the "rising sun" scheme!
  9. That is quite amazing.. it must have taken hundreds of hours to make!
  10. Hi Petar, Great job on this! I love this kind of realistic take on these subjects! I have a couple of questions for you - the Banner photo, did I understand correctly that you shot it outside? Were the rest of the shots taking in-doors with a background and some light arrangement? They look great. I've been looking for the Minmay Special kit - did you scavenge from that kit for the decals or did you find an after-market decal set? Thanks!
  11. Super job! Could you please explain more about the lighting? I'm planning on lighting up some of the 1/72 kits.
  12. I'll be at WF this year and I'm finishing up my Angel bird for entry in the contest. let's get together for a beer for sure!
  13. Awesome. Those old kits are great! Great job bringing it to life!
  14. Hi, I have an extra gunpod and some mecha hands you could have. Let me dig it up for you. Where do you live?
  15. Hi All, In my quest for super amazing mega canopy, I accidentally destroid the canopy decal. oops. I know some of you must mask and paint the canopy frame, so maybe someone has an extra decal that they don't need! Please let me know if you can part with one, or trade for parts or something. thanks, Caseymunchkin
  16. Hi, I installed a mod chip in my fatty PS2. It cost $40 and it's permanent. I can play all my Japanese games, US games, and any region type DVD. It was hard to install and I had to get some help from a friend who works in electrical. There was about 20 small wires to connect. It's a great way to if you have some experience with soldering. Cheers, Casey
  17. Hey, I think that those are in fact screw-type access hatches. I'm not positive, but I recall seeing them being turned somewhere...
  18. Hey dood, You could try this: 1. Clean the surface with mild soap and water (dish soap would be fine) & let it air dry completely. 2. If the surface is flat, you could gloss coat it first with a spray can of gloss. If it is straight plastic it will be fine. 3. Cut the stickers carefully without touching them; use tweezers or hobby knife to lift the sticker using the tip. 4. After placing the sticker use a tissue between your fingers to rub the sticker to smooth it down. 5. Use a gloss coat to seal the sticker by: a. warm up the can in WARM water, b. hold the can about 10cm from the piece, c. start spraying before the piece and pass over the whole thing before you stop spraying. 6. Cover it with an upside-down plastic container to prevent dust etc. from settling on it and let it dry for 24hrs. 7. Wash your hands before working 8. practice on a scrap first Good luck!
