Hi.
This is my recently comission work finished: Hasegawa's 1/72nd SV-51 from
Macross Zero.
Basically is the version used by Nora in the OVA, but the pattern of paint
was customized. It is Tamiya bright blue (to me, a close tone of the YF-21
color), Federal Standard Medium gray with the addition of the Nora's decals
vers.
To the base, I add 2 plates of plastic styrene, one of them I cut in few
squares and glue them to represent part of an airport or something like
that. Originally it has a white "5" but my client told me to add an extra
white "4" conforming a number "45" . Before painting, was "texturized" the
surface. The color used on the base was FS 36375, Medium gray for the
dark shades between squares (post-shading) and neutral gray to unify the tones
of grays. Add some oil effects, dirt, dust on some points of the base.
Hope you like it.
Here's the gallery of the pics

Nice nice model! Very cool details. I think I'll get another 2 or 3 more.

so the there would be a chance that the VF-0D seen at the 2004 Hobby Expo could the Hasegawa's kit and not the scratch build that has been seen in the Hobby Japan magazines?

Hi.
Thanks for your comments guys.
David Hingtgen: That was I told him. To be a "45" must be an airport with the size of Texas
Originally my client wanted a black with red flames scheme (I did the drawings), so it could be plane with the black around the model due it's a dark color, also the details of the aircraft could be lost (panels, rivets, etc). I suggested a WWII Coursair's scheme (2 or 3 tones I think would look great) or the F-18 Navy with 3 tones of grays. He chose a gray with semi dark blue. I did the drawings with the final scheme.
He's so happy now with the results.
Thanks again for your very appreciated comments
Best regards
