jorawar_b Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 I am trying to build a 1/48 yamato Orbot, this project has been going on for a few years as I work on it here and there. I have tried to get some hi res pictures of the orbot model kit to try to match the paint, but I have not been able to find any, if someone on here can help, it would really help me. Thank you in advance to everyone who can help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VF-18S Hornet Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) I remember seeing that kit back in Pittsburgh in my old comc book shop on Craig Street. It was a Imai ripoff because I have the original Imai sculpted model kit that Bandai had reissued for the Macross fifteenth Anniversary line.

Ripoff imply they stole the designs rather than licensing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightmareB4macross Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Would it have been easier to use a LV2 1/48, add the VF-1D parts, then mask and paint? Nice job. Looks interesting without the camo pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks interesting without the camo pattern. This was started before the LV2 came out from what I remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ae_productions Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 thanks man, but I am looking for this one its the upper right one. I don't want to buy the kit... Those color schemes are neat. Wonder if that was the inspiration for the LV2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
