  1. Peter, I suggest setting that E on fire. It will just give you more pleasure.
  2. Stunning work! Do you consider any of the upgrade versions of the Barbatos?
  3. @peter Thank you for documenting the building process; it's an amazing kit and you really did it justice. I was always bugged by the official pics and most builds where they blocked out the hangar doors of the carriers in solid black, I like your wash solution much better.
  4. Another interesting Kotobukiya release is this How to.. book in cooperation with Ammo/Mig. It's available in english! https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10710231
  5. For the model builders: Available in three scales. https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10701259
  6. Legendary composer Ennio Morricone died at age 91 today. It is no exaggeration to say that he created a whole universe with his music.
  7. I surely like that Mass Effect paint scheme better than the toy colors of the TNG ships. It's something I would try on the Shenzou kit if it were a bit cheaper.
  8. Korobukiya has some interesting designs in their Hexa Gear series, but the still look too much like toys for my taste. Your paintjob definitely helped to make this machine look more serious. Do you also have some pics of the kit from Suisei no Gargantuan I see in the background?
  9. If you find Bandai's Star Destroyer kit super lame, just mod it into a cutaway version: https://dorobou.blog.ss-blog.jp/2020-06-26
  10. It does look really cool. The only thing they need to improve IMO is those trench-wide panel lines.
  11. Testament Gundam coming as a P-Bandai release. Did anybody build the Dragon Momoko kit?
  12. It's certainly a challenge to visualize a future that is so detached from our times, especially when you don't have a Lannister's budget. But I like what I see so far, and it will be interesting to see how they'll translate that 50's SF faith in technology into modern perception.
  13. I live near a (now abandoned) RAF airfield near the Durch border, so in my youth F-4s and Starfighters passed overhead on a regular basis. The noise was devastating.
  14. Hey, the logo at the very end basically is the Macross Kite! I love the style of the trailer, too bad it's on Apple+
  15. I'd be wary regarding a wash, it might quickly kill the scale. I think just the hint of the untreated panel lines will be enough on the final model. @joscasle Smooth paint work on the VF-4. Do you think you can switch the landing gear for, say, F-18 parts?
  16. It started quite interesting and with good FX, but I had to turn it off after they shot the helicopter with an RPG. From a sub.
  17. "...you have my sympathies."
  18. Perfect finish on that classic duo. Did you add a gloss coat after the clear blue?
