A low-vis version of each Strike set? It's possible, but would take some work. I have my old Yamato low-vis sets I could go back to, in terms of colors, but there's a Hasegawa kit that recently came out that would likely be a better place to start for inspiration: https://www.hlj.com/1-48-scale-vf-1a-valkyrie-low-visibility-hsg65871 If anyone has it and can send me a scan of the decal sheet (I can provide the specs for what I need), I'll take a look.

If a strike battroid version is ever released, I'll make that one a Roy, too, so I have him in all three modes at 1/20. For my basic fighter kit, I'm going with standard CF. Anything where you need a white decal or have to put a color decal on top of a background other than plain white (kite on black stripes, white modex numbers on the black section of the leg fins, white skulls on the vertical stabilizers and boosters...) is going to be very challenging. OK, good to know, thanks! I may decide to bin the idea of trying to do it myself and just buy decals in the end, but I probably won't even be able to see the kit for at least a year or so (at my in-laws in Japan).

spacemanoeuvres Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Have a number of large credits to use at everyone’s favorite retailer (NY) so I decided to use it on a PLAMAX MF-45 MINIMUM FACTORY VF-1. We shall see if they actually ship it. I’m not holding my breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are total scum and they fukked so many people, just look in here: There's also a FB page created for all the people they screwed: https://www.facebook.com/groups/271395437813426/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it'd look more natural if the 'knees' were just more separated out from the thighs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
