Jefuemon Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 (edited) It all started when I saw this illustration in "This is Animation Special:Macross Plus". It looked so cool, I just had to build it. At first, I was going to build the 1/48 as it, but I didn't have the correct scale of UN Air Force markings (and my one try at making custom decals was a disaster). So I grabbed the Hasegawa VF-1A Super Battroid I had, and used that instead. I was kind of fun figuring out the fighter cammo pattern as a battroid. The Regult in the target scope I also got from TIAS:MP. Done on a mailing label The kit came with a J head as well, so when I get bored I can switch it out.

PetarB Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 That is crazy different! Where did you get the big round Regult decal from? Is that a custom one? Very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jefuemon Posted July 4, 2011 Author Share Posted July 4, 2011 That is crazy different! Where did you get the big round Regult decal from? Is that a custom one? Very nice! I scanned it out of the back of of This Is Animation Special:Macross Plus. Lots of good alternate squadron marking to be had in that book! Problem is, my one attempt at making a custom decal sucked horribly, so I had to print that onto a mailing label, and hope for the best. If anyone is interested in the image I used, let me know, and I'll post it here. AND, if anyone is interested in doing a guy a favor, I may have some decal work, if I provide the scans.

big F Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I have that same book, true there are lots of really good paint schemes in there all needing someone to paint them up for real. Great work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
