  1. I'm trying to finish up a few custom projects right now, and I'm waiting for the release of the 1/60 GBP so I can make decals for that. I'm also updating my 1/48 Standard set to include markings for the 1J Max and Miriya. Once all of that is taken care of, I'll be offering sets again. I just counted up all the different sets I've designed: 50! Good grief, I need to spend more time away from my computer....
  2. Okay, I'll take the lack of response as a "No."
  3. I've PM'd and emailed you about this several times, but no reply so far. Do you still want the 1/48 Minmay Guard set as a gift for you-know-who? If so, please let me know ASAP so I can get started on it.
  4. One more shot of this bad boy in better lighting before I put him in the display case. I took this one at my camera's highest quality setting.
  5. And, of course, my pride and joy: The 1/60 Blue Roses 002 Strike!
  6. I started branching out into Yamatos with this Angel Birds custom. The valk was painted completely white and then decals I designed for MW member trueblueeyes were used to created the Angel Birds color scheme. This custom is sporting the new ALPS printed decals. Designing them took a looooooong time, but making this custom took very little time. No muss, no fuss.
  7. Here's my second custom, a 1/55 Super VF-1A CF. I was able to control the weathering on this one a bit better and even managed to produce a neat "stressed" paint job--completely by accident, I must admit. This was the first custom I made with the Hasegawa-style decals I designed. Back in the day, I made these on my inkjet printer.... The squadron comes from the old Macross Hobby Handbook. I changed the color from blue to green and gave this valk a number designation. This was a gift for my best friend. Jetfire body, Chris Barretta custom head and heatshield, Kotobukiya nozzles.
  8. Here is the first custom I ever made. I was going for the "Focker's Last Fight" theme with this Super VF-1S. Jetfire body, Chris Barretta custom head and heatshield, Jung decals. I was REALLY inexperienced when I made this. Note reversed stripes on chestplate. Definitely not my best work, but a good start. Working on this inspired me to start making decals. The friend who received this as a graduation gift dubbed it "The Dirty Bird."

    1/48 Enigma Custom

    This custom is a perfect example of why I continue to make decal sets. It's simply gorgeous and a true inspiration for all customizers....
  10. Just finished up the pilot. Pardon the glare, but it was hard to get a good close-up shot with the lighting in my workshop. I painted the white suit the same blue as the valk and kept the orginal yellow parts. It looks really good in the cockpit. Thanks for the idea, Toonz!
  11. (evil laugh) Heh heh heh....
  12. Before I forget, I want to say thank you to everyone who's commented so far on this custom. I put a lot of work into it and I'm elated at the overwhelmingly positive response it has received. I'll try to get it shipped to wherever MW Con 4 is going to be held this year, along with my Angel Birds custom and perhaps one other I am working on right now.
  13. I hadn't thought of that! Interesting idea to have the pilot suit match the rest of the color scheme. I'll dig out one of my detail brushes and give it a try over the next few days. I'll be sure to post pics when it's done.
  14. And my favorite mode of all for this custom, armored fighter! I think I'll display it in this mode. It looks really formidable when it's armed to the teeth....
  15. As promised, more pics! Battroid mode, no armor: Battroid mode, with armor: I'll get pics of armored Fighter mode uploaded later today. Gerwalk is not easy to pull off with 1/60 customs, so I don't think I'm going to try that one--it puts too much strain on the paint job....
  16. It's the new type of gunpod. I didn't fully collapse the handle for fighter mode. Need to do some touch up work on it first.
  17. This project has been on my workbench for about a year now. To make room for some other projects I have in the queue, I finished this one. This is by far my favorite color scheme and it pained me to have the valk sitting incomplete for so long.... All of you have been keeping me super busy with decal orders! I took a VF-1S Strike and put it through the normal routine of disassembly, cleaning, paint stripping, sanding, priming, painting, detailing, and clearcoating. I made the decals for it, of course. The dark color of this valk made it especially difficult to pull off without a ton of paint scraping that might expose the white plastic underneath during transformations. I used my Dremel way more than usual to make this custom work. Talk about a headache.... Here are the Hasegawa 1/72 kits from Model Graphix that this custom is based on: And here are fighter mode pics of my custom (without armor). I elected to use a satin finish so it appears a bit darker in color than the original. The Tamiya Sea Blue I used is a perfect match. I'll be uploading battroid as well as armored pics tomorrow once I do a little touch-up work on the cannon. Enjoy!
  18. Sounds great to me! I've made tons of decal and sticker sets for people, yet rarely do I get to see them in action on customs. It's like they disappear into a void.... Having an official customs thread might encourage people to post pics of their work. I'll be sure to post pics. I have four customs in the works right now....
  19. Nice work as always, Shan! It's great that the 1/55s are getting love from customizers again. That reminds me, I need to finish up my 1/55 Hikaru 1J GBP custom I started about a year ago.... Hope your finger is on the mend.
  20. Yes, but I am not taking orders right now. They should be available again in about a month.
  21. I make them in 1/72, 1/60, 1/55, and 1/48. You can see pics of them at this site: http://www.netwiz.net/~dwhite/decals/decal...al_samples.html And here's a pic of the Hasegawa model they are based on:
  22. Yeah, I'm *still* looking for a perfect paint match for the purple/blue in the decals. I'll let everyone know when I find one....
  23. Nice job, Shan! I do believe that yours is the first completed chunky monkey Minmay Guard custom. It looks great. Can't wait to see the 1/55 LV custom....

    1/48 Enigma Custom

    Damn. Nice work, Kurt. Your attention to detail is awesome--not many people use every decal on the sheets I make. I can't wait to see how you do the FAST Packs. It makes me want to get back to my own custom projects instead of making decal sets for everyone else.
  25. I know that Jesse has one in the works. I made a set of basic 1/48 Angel Birds markings for him about a month ago....
