  1. Suble and yet very notable differences. Very nice! @electric indigo That's a smooth looking finish!
  2. I would love for them to do that. I still have some of the older ships kits that I still need to put together.
  3. Pair of grungy bois!
  4. Impressive print! As for size, it doesn't look too off, I don't think. I found this size chart in Pinterest. One thing I'd note is that the drive section/legs look smaller than they should. Or, the arms/flight decks are oversized, which looks more likely when comparing the Frontier's legs to the Macross.
  5. That was a good movie. I liked the mystery of the Gorge and wondering where it came from and thought Taylor-Joy and Teller had some real good chemistry.
  6. Another cool build coming across the Desk of @pengbuzz!
  7. Wish I could say I was trailblazing!😄 https://www.cybermodeler.com/hobby/builds/rm/build_rm_5206.shtml As to parts placement, I'm just worried the big items, like the gun muzzle and the placement of the main gear well. The Tamiya kit is going to donate the new muzzle and I'll have to cut a hole for it along the back edge of the canopy on the Hase nose, and I'm thinking, after having cut off the rear of the Hasegawa's lower fuselage, that I can put it in all-in-one without needing to cut it up any further. Then it'll be a few sessions of cleaning up the new joins.🤣
  8. On my table is a bit of conversion work. Over the years I have managed to get a hold of two of the old Monogram F-16XL kits, and have thought about putting them together. Now there is an F-16 GB going on Britmodeller and so I offered that up for the sacrifice. After a false start where I ruined inscribing the kits raised lines (and discovered that said lines were fictitious anyway) I restarted with cutting out the kit's nose and central body and replacing them with one cut out from a D-model Hasegawa kit. (The first try was with a Tamiya CJ, but the sublime detail on that is really too good for the Monogram parts and that brand new kit will now be a part's mule for the build.) So yeah, three kits going into one, as I will be using the Tamiya cockpit/gear and wells/burner can in a Hasegawa body mated up to Monogram XL wings... Gonna be a Frankenplane. What would that be called? Tamasegram? Hasamiyamon? Montamegawa..?) Anyhoos... Parts cut and inserted and waiting for clean-up and refining. (...pssst, and repositioning the gun further back...) Thom
  9. I'm looking forward to it. It looks good, but I just need them to not Worf the finale - again! Just give us a live version of the book finale for once. And not to harp on the show, but I just finished rereading the Eye of the World after some thirty years since the last time, and it brought home just how much they changed from it. Yes, changes must be made for an adaptation but they really made it something different. Again, I'm fine with that as I have always come into this as it NOT being the Wheel of Time but something different altogether. I just need them to have a good finale. And maybe, some time in the distant future, someone will finally do a live-action version of the Wheel of Time.
  10. The naughty thrill of perusing someone else's stash!
  11. Hyped just for the news itself! That should go to show how ready I am for even just a wiff. There have been a few passing from the cast, John Matuszac and Anne Ramsey being most known. If this does through, I would imagine it would be multi-generational. If they do end up doing it, I could see them wanting to set up a new younger cast to keep a franchise going for the next ten or twenty years.
  12. My recent 'toy' purchase, being a 'statue' of Artoria Pendragon - Saber, from Fate Stay/Night. Just a slight scuff here and there and she needs a new stand. But I like her. Love the armored skirt!
