cobywan Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Ahhh... I didn't touch it for about 14 months in a row. I'm glad that wasn't my goal. I just need to finish it before I die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueTrooper Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Making a 1/144 Phalanx dio with the destriod being given direction by a little guy with pattons. Filled in all the seams for a DYRL opening battle Skull Squadron using the Chara-works valks, still need to make the engine covers.

Gabe Q Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Making a 1/144 Phalanx dio with the destriod being given direction by a little guy with pattons. I always wanted a set of those little 144th scale destroids. Do you happen to know where I can get a set? Filled in all the seams for a DYRL opening battle Skull Squadron using the Chara-works valks, still need to make the engine covers. I love the little assemblyline process you got going. Be sure and show us the final product. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahiachris Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I always wanted a set of those little 144th scale destroids. Do you happen to know where I can get a set? You can get them at HobbyFan or you can get them from me. I once borrowed my originals for someone here in HK to cast them. I have a full set of the destroids except the Monster.

Paliodor Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Right now I'm finishing my VF-25 F Messiah Valkyrie Alto custom. It's my first non-gundam plamo and I have to say that it's great to try something new. The last things that I need to do are to apply rest of the decals, paint the pilot and to improve some of the panel lines. I will not apply any top coat since when I will have airbrush and compressor I plan to paint it. The only thing that I don't like about this kit is that some of the decals are quite hard to apply and not so good quality, also I have some problems with this parts: since it not adheres perfectly to the rest of the fuselage. Whether you also had similar problems with these parts or just I made something wrong when assembling these parts ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechTech Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Concerning my room build, it was a work related project for a dormitory. I currently live in the UK. We did have an old cabinet with Meagan Fox in there, but we tore it out to make room for the vending machines . I love the 1/44th scale destroids. I almost went with 1/144th scale to do my Daedalus in because there is so much stuff in 1/144th. I think those models are pretty cool. - MT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome, have not seen any built one before. Would really like to get more of the Yellow sub kits espeacially the VF-4. There phalanx is good but not all that accurate, would like to get another and try and make it accurate. Anyone know of how i can get some destroid decals which i can shrink down and print off myself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MechTech Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 The Meagan Fox vending machine would go well, with the guys. I think the females would take me to court Optimus at night looks great.

Whether you also had similar problems with these parts or just I made something wrong when assembling these parts ? Good job, its quite a build. Unfortunately, nope, you did nothing wrong, its just a really poor fit and Bandai didn't bother with any good pins or attachment mechanisms. Once you transform it a few times and the joints loosen up, you get the knack of tweaking the legs and upper thighs underneath a bit to get a better fit. You can play with it a bit to get all the shoulder plates to lie a bit more flat, and the gaps will even out a bit, but that IS the problematic area which we all have. I think their solution is the super packs that has an entirely new piece that covers it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like you have said it would resolve the problem with this area but still it's really shame that Bandai didn't provide better solution for this parts. The same goes about some of the decals that are quite bad quality or just don't cover entirely the area that they should cover... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
