Whats Lying on your Workbench MK IV

I gotta admit, for a bare plastic kit OOB build, with only a panel lining and a few details, that looks pretty damn good! 😯

Is it the Nakatomi building from Die Hard?

Now you're in the ballpark.  It's a Japanese high rise condominium.

Once completed, it will be nearly as tall as I am. 😅

You gotta add this stuff to your toolkit:

It fuses waterslide decals to the surfaces they're applied to.  I never apply decals without it. 👌

It has been done.

The last few steps. Kid didn’t want to build anymore and instead went to play super Mario.

and … DONE.

 

Tools and colors used:

Tamiya Super Thin Cement

Tamiya Black panel line color

Turpentine substitute 

180/600/1500 grid sandpaper

Stanley carpet cutter

Model kit pliers

Red permanent marker (Edding)

Blue permanent marker (Edding)

silver gloss permanent marker (Edding)

Black gloss permanent marker

the plamax sticker and for stuff that came off after a night, the waterslide decals.

 

A fun build. The plamax VF-1 is such a nice kit to build. I recommend it.

Came out great! My kid would have done the same but they are loving the new-ish Ratchet and Clank game. It’s awesome!

You guys seemed to have missed my other hint, "Earthbound," as in bound to the earth... 😝

It doesn't fly, it doesn't transform, it doesn't move at all.

It does, however, consist of hundreds of laser-cut acrylic panels...

I hope to see your Gojira stomping through it

It's upside down, and that's what through me off. Yeah, that's it...
