  1. Hi there, that's me again with news!

    A bit of usual model work here - I use my unfailing scriber (engraver of panel lines, sorry, don't know how will be correctly) to cut Main Cannon to bunch of pieces, and re-glued them in necessary position. But they are too short, so I use extruded plastic to make them longer and a little wider.

    I cut bridge's up from main body, and make main bridge with plastic and tamiya's putty. Main body was elongated with epoxy putty.

    Legs was glued straight to "arm's connectors" back. But, they still can be curved, if need, it's funny.

    I reverse arms with Daedalus and airship-carrier onto 180 degree and cover holes with plastic.

  2. I watched T-formation moment in old Macross and now understand how it works. Legs just attached straight to the main cannon's shoulders, and main body turn on 180 degree around it's own centre!

    Macross from TV is a little longer and flat than the DYRL version. That's funny.

    All main torso doesn't connected with legs in normal configuration. Just with little point, which I marked red, and around this point it is deploying. So, the legs holes in kit should be in front of Macross, and must be closed.

    I print picture in similar scale, and use a paper adhesive tape for rude fitting. The main cannon is shorter, than it should be, and it also should be cut and reassembled in necessary position.

    I hope, you'll understand all from my engrish ))

    So, basically, you want to make an attacker Macross into a cruiser? Shouldn't be too hard. If you can get some scans of the instructions or a picture of the model, I can show you how it works.

    Here's the sprues in attachments and instruction. I don't understand, what's with bridge, how it's transform, and what's happening with Main Gun shoulders.

  4. Hello everyone from snowy Russia! )

    I've read forum about a 5 month, but this is my first post here.

    Two days ago I've get my parcel from HLJ with a bit of Macross kits. One of them was Bandai 1/8000 SDF-1 Storm Attacker. I have an idea convert it to usual cruiser mod.

    I've make some screenshots from DYRL (there too bad animation of this moment is TV), but I still can't understand, what's happening with it's bridge, and how it get so big and high in attacker mod.

    Maybe someone already make this conversion? Any guides/photos?
