  1. Constantly impressive! Where did that Meltrandi ship come from? Is it a kit?

    Thanks,

    It's 100% kit bashed. Part folded styrene and parts from a broken Patlabor model ,I think.

    I did what I could to scale it to the old Arii ship models.

    How big do you think Macross Quarter is compaired to SDF-1 Macross? Quarter the size of SDF?About,as big as SDF-1's leg? I was wondering. Seems similar in design to this Meltrandi gunboat though.

  2. This is soooo awesome!!! Did you build that up from scratch or is it a kit?

    I found it at Hobbyfan.com.I don't usually build resin.

    They have had hard to find Resin kits there. VF-4,Zentrati stuff,SDF-1 Macross DYRL version

  3. What a great project! I love it.

    Thank you, I should just post the printout version of it.

    It's made of foam-core/foam-board,printed glossy paper. Sealed on the edges with wood glue so the paint won't eat it up. Painted with gun metal metalizer paint. Then put the song in as a sticker and sealed the whole thing in crystal clear. This was actually made as part of a gift/resume to the Toynami CEO George Sohn.

    Both song tablets fold open to reveal images of sets and Macross miniatures used in my project Macross the Digi-Stop Motion.Each page was laminated and was kind of presented like a mini Hobby Japan or something.

    This was kind of difficult to put together overall since the original source image was so tiny. I had to re-type the written song in Zentrati font so,It may not be perfect. But,it is the song.

    The notes were pretty scuffed up in the original source image and did what I could to make them less washed together.It is likely, closer to the original image than the words tablet are.

    Glad you like it.I'll look for more images of them in storage.

  4. SWEET!!!!

    I love this! How did you make it?

    It was kit bashed from a broken,plastic, closet door. Ya know those kind that fold up as you open it?

    I noticed that it was made of styrene plastic and being a bit of a Pac-rat I snagged it from the trash.

    I also had a box full of old broken Star Trek models that I used to add some of the details.

    I still have the set but it's back in Pittsburgh,Pa.

    I'll post more pics as I find them on disks I brought with me.

    It's fun to recycle junk into cool sets. I haven't had much time to lately.
