It's not off the bench, yet! 😁 I'm doing a couple of GBs over on Britmodeller, and the one with the Sea Vixen goes a month longer than the one the F-35C is in, so I'll be jumping back to that whether this one is done or not by the deadline. Yeah, their A and B mode kits have open weapon bays, so I wonder why this one doesn't. Not that I'm bothered by it, as I'd just close it up anyway, so win-win for me. No need to worry about the bays and it's the C!

@wm cheng That's going to look great mimicking that final image. I happen to be building a stealth fighter as well, Tamiya's 1/72 F-35C.

Reminds me of Mortal Engines, with the Minions being mistaken for 'American Deities.' Would not be surprised. Well...

I can imagine, a few thousand years from now, an archeological dig finding this and thinking that, yes, that Skynet did exist and we worshipped machines as gods.

It has been a bit of a wait, but I'm not minding it. For a good show, I'll give it the time it needs, and it looks like it is here. Just finished the first half and I'm loving it! Still with the excitement, the dread and the humor. Except for that one half season here Eleven went off on her own, this show has been pretty solid all the way. Really wish they'd just released them all, but I guess they gotta do what they gotta do, and it ain't no stick going to places it don't belong..

Nice start with the mods, @Chas.

A LOT of nice PE work!

So, option one.

Great looking Max VF-1 @joscasle! That's a nice shade of blue. Well, when Millia is macronized... @nightmareB4macross Those thicker calves are a good improvement. It doesn't impede transforming into fighter mode, as I assume they left the backs flat for a tighter appearance..? Dang, that bomber is looking good, @derex3592. We are appreciating your hardships!

I wonder if they figure a larger box will mean we pay higher shipping..? Or it's just marketing, saying, "look at the massive model you are buying!!" That being said, I need to go into some intense negotiations with my wallet.

The 'Hey look at this really cool model build I saw' post
Thom replied to Shawn's topic in Model kits
Guess someone was just trying something different. (not that different is always better...) Oh, right, more than likely Gundam! Still prefer Macross as a primary course, myself. -
Nice! I have a couple of these as well, but the big ones I am turned off from doing because of the odd shapes, such as with Breetai's ship. Did get a couple of the smaller ones a short while ago though. @tekering A happy client is a paying client! Not having read the story, it's looks really good.

That ain't no turkey!!

I forgot they dump them all in one go, or two. Next binge-session planned out!

Interesting how the seasons show the progression to a 'glass' cockpit.

Thom replied to Shawn's topic in Model kits
Thanks. Awesome models and displays. Odd though, how that Zentradi command ship was mounted upside down. You'd think the Japanese would get that right, considering Macross is required viewing in all levels of education. -
There's this as well

Looking good @nightmareB4macross

Where the leading edge of the wing meets up with the closer 'pontoon,' which is actually extra fuel and anionic housing? There is a hole there, but that is for a part that has not been added yet.
-
@Papa Rat Actually not that bad in the way of seems. Halves split horizontally, the most seem work was with the sides of the nose. The wings closed up pretty good. With the 'pontoons' over the wings, they were pretty gappy in real life, esp near the rear, and I won't be doing any sanding, but just using a wet q-tip to hydrate and wipe off excess. All in all, the fit is alright. The one spot that I would work on more before the wings went together would be the wing fences. But I am liking this one.

That is nice @electric indigo! Clearing off the PPP filling gaps and cutting out and making new, clear marker lights for the ailerons.
