    How about a small Destroid?

    Just re-watched it after decades, boy is it slooow in the first half. But once the action starts, it still entertaining. And the special effects (flight scenes, actors in the cockpits, scale model shots) hold up really well after 30+ years.. Here's a nice BTS:

    This is the New Generation of Macross garage kits!

    You'd think they pick up at least the TIE Interceptor from Ep. VI.

    They forgot to add some visual perks for the upgraders...

    Here's a reference shot of my Fine Molds kit, the size is perfect if you're on limited display estate.

    Here are new pics of the Striker: http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/image/10353821/10/0 Nice kit, but it comes at whopping 12.800 Yen

    Wow is this the most cynical of all Gundam shows?

    Nobody seems to miss C-3PO...

    JJ's biggest success is that the trailer is so awe-inspiring that nobody mentioned the massive lens flare in Kylo's shot on the bridge.

    I just had to check the first page if this had actually started as a papercraft model...

    No need to bomb the room with paint. When I paint small parts like Gundam limbs, a 30 x 40 cm sheet of paper is sufficient to avoid getting paint on my desktop. So there is, IMO, no need for an industrial grade fan, especially if you stick to acrylics.

    Exactly like that. Hobby Japan propagated it as the "Max technique" in the earlier years of gunpla, where Max Watanabe would start with a black base coat and gradually build up layers of white upon that, but I think it works better (and easier) with the colors not too far apart. It gives a nice structure to otherwise plain surfaces without looking overly weathered, and you can achieve interesting shifting of colors.

    My Anubis (and the gang) so far:

    ^ Whoa, you started a Macross factory? - I try to achieve an outlandish look for my Anubis with negative shading: After lots of prep work, it's starting to come together...

    You seem to have forgotten the Zeta...

    Hi kajnrig, nice to see you over here. My advice: Save the HGs and the 19 for later and get an airbrush I've been using a single-action Badger 350 for all my work - available for around 40$, and it will change your modeling life forever...

    Which brings us to: Turn A Shin - now with more Gundam

    Interesting, I completely missed Iczer 1 - and while it's not a clear clone, I wonder if Gundam Portent's color scheme is a pure coincidence: Also, look at this: http://ryugassj3.deviantart.com/art/Iczer-Robo-Character-Model-by-Obari-Real-489432328

    The Ghost has some wicked shapes on it, I do not envy you for working it all out!

    Well, the landing pads have to double-function as the lower compressors, so they need to be big...
  22. electric indigo
    Quite substantially bigger, if you ask me:

    Hmm, shouldn't the packs have the same footprint as the top surface of the engines at the rear end?

    What is #16?

    The other guy's machine gets a kit, too: http://www.1999.co.jp/blog/img/20150925omochi29.jpg
