  1. hi GK, i do like your decal apps alot. maybe i can go back and redo them. and i kept the black 001 stripe on the fuselage b/c it is just my nod to the base fig. thats all, like i said, i wasnt doing a totally accurate repaint. zedz
  2. thanx everyone. you are right about it being busy. and if i ever plan to sell it, decals can be removed from the main body as i havent sealed them. just the fast pack decals were sealed. so they can always be removed if i ever change my mind down the road. i did draw inspiration from you grand admiral, and one other cat b4 i saw yours. sadly, his thread pics are gone since he sold it. anyway, thanx GA for the words, and yes, i am loving this fig soo much. zedz
  3. i wanted a bigger autobot symbol on the heat sheild, but the only other one i have that size is an all silver one. this one looked much better IMO. i also keeped the small silver symbol on the nose to match the symbols on the tail fins in fighter mode. i'm not worried bout the exact G1 replication so much now, just as long as the main details are there. Z
  4. i'm totally fine w/ it. plus i dont want to take a chance on making any uneven lines. i do plan on doing the green visor blue when i get the nuts to take his head apart. i will also make the very tips of his head cannons black. other than that, he is a wrap. all i can do at this point is just stare at it and drool. i've waited for over 8 months now to do this. now its finally a reality.
  5. hey there RDD, i just love jet/skyfire. nice work there too. i love it! hey, you may want to order some G1 jetfire reprolabels and fix up your G1 jetfire there. whoever put those decals on was horrible! i am trying to hunt one down now. wanna sell him? never hurts to ask i say. zedz
  6. ***i started a new thread b/c the other thread was getting too littered and wanted the pics to be accessed on the first page w/o editing*** i finally finished my obligatory MP "Matsushiro" Jetfire and he came out so much better than i was expecting. i finished off the process by sealing ALL details and decals w/ a clearmatte finish. he is now one of my favorite centerpieces next to my other MP transformers. and yes i think he can kick his old buddy starscream's a$$. i hope you enjoy the pics.

  7. thats the plan. i wanted to let the paint cure for about a week, then put the final coat on. i'm thinking putting the decals on then do a matte seal. whatcha think? btw, is there an easy way to dismantle a VF-1S head? or is it just glued together?
  8. here he is, just finished. i'm finishing my MP jetfire as you are reading this. i hate the greenish blue of the fast packs so i decided to go w/ a blue for my VF-1A MAX valk. well, here he is, enjoy. zedz
  9. very nice guys, i will get to work on mine as soon as time permits. in the meantime, i know i'm not going to redo the red/black on his chest, but that is a very nice touch. it doesnt mean that much to me. i do like the red/blue crystals also on his legs; will keep them. zedz
  10. Work In Progress my friend. far from finished that is.
  11. actually, i have your thead listed in my favorites! BOWS. i will expand on what you have done by making the thrusters totally acurate, and putting black stripes on the leg armor. the DOT stickers were just for fun, but they rock! keeping them on. i will also use a few of the yamato decals for a more realistic touch, but no "no step" decals thank you. he will be one of a kind as far as macross/jetfire repaints go as i will put all the fine details in at the last minute. i'm worried about the head tho. not sure how to take that thing apart to put the blue transparency on the visor. any suggestions? and credit will go to you for my inspiration on the repaint as well. thanx, zedz
  12. thats why its titled WIP. J/J i will get to that part of it soon enough. regardless, i'm loving the DOT stickers. ALOT! zedz
  13. so far i'm using DOT reflective tape for the red lines and accents. just used a straight edge and an X-Acto knife. the flash REALLY brings out reflective properties, but in normal lighting it is about as red and the heat sheild. and yes it does look spectacular when the light hits it just right. next i will plan on doing the red line going down the wingspan. then onto the repainting of the FPs to a flat fireman red. will post progress pics as i get done. zedz
  14. you know, i was thinkin, it might not be too hard to fabricate those simple decals. i have some DOT reflective red decals for my work truck that may be very good to use. plus it would give him a little more eye catching detail. whatcha think? zedz
