  1. In the same vein, EVA's designer Ikuto Yamashita stated that his approach for the joints of the Metal Build re-design was thinking of mechanical muscles.
  2. That's a cool Ghost going on there! The sprue piece already had a wedge profile that fit right into the cutout for the windows. While it stuck in place I cut the right side angles with my little rotary saw, removed the clear piece and filed it into the final shape.
  3. Spicing up the Minerva with a clear cockpit.
  4. Don't know if anybody here is into Anderson's stylized insanity, but this looks like another must-see to me.
  5. Did some experimentation with backgrounds today and caught some interesting shots of my Trumpeter J-31 (which will remain a work in progress until someone releases a set of lo-viz PLAAF markings someday)
  6. With fighter design being bound to the stepped-on-shoebox look for the next generations, at least we get some interesting perspectives for airliners from Airbus. The configuration is currently tested with a 2 meter demonstrator (which also demonstrates that someone in the art department at Airbus is into anime).
  7. For the fans of the Discovery E: Round 2 has an upcoming 1/1000 kit with lighting option.
  8. Joscasle, the pics of your great work almost make me pick up my Hase Tomcat again. But I also have a Skyhawk incoming... what to do?! I'm on it and I also have a Minerva incoming....
  9. It doesn't help that the legs look pretty great on the garage kit. I'll admit that the HG kit does a pretty great job of capturing Kazumi Fujitas organic lines on the upper body.
  10. As an ardent Syd Mead fan, I take this thing as a much welcomed surprise
  11. My first EVA, the Kaiyodo garage kit by Akira Tani, built in 1997. And I should really complete one of my Reis after all these years
  12. According to Northrop Grumman, the B-1 packs even more than the B-52 The biggest task for the B21 is to come in under the 2.000.000.000/piece of it's predecessor...
  13. My feelings exactly. And when Geralt and Ciri's meeting finally happens, the director apparently has no idea what to do with it and the moment just passes. The way the fall of Cintra is presented in the timeline prevents is from being that big, epic event it should have been, and what happens quite a few times in the series is that they have a lush establishing CGI shot, but never the physical sets to keep up the illusion.
  14. This is great news. But how could they mess up the legs so bad?
  15. Let Villeneuve finish Dune first and then directly move on to Neuromancer...
  16. Time for some shiny stuff - I recently put the finishing touches on my Hasegawa Fighter 1 kit and just got enough sunshine to snap some pics. More in the Crusher Joe thread
  17. Great clip, ty. For me, the show was a mixed experience. Cavill is awesome and kills it in every scene, but he makes it painfully obvious that the rest of the cast is not in his league, and so are the directors, IMHO. Still looking forward to the second season, but I hope they tighten things up a bit more.
  18. I don't pose the kits that much and just touch up any scratches I discover after the final assembly. In critical places, you can also sand away some material to give the parts more clearance.
  19. Derex, your collection surely deserves a newer mold TOS E, it looks like the same kit I built in my teens. Looking forward to see the complete fleet on display. @all, thanks for the flowers for the Sukhoi, you greatly help me to actually finish something once in a while, and it's always a pleasure to keep you entertained. Two more for now, need to get a pilot in there and build a proper stand. @wm cheng The only planned releases of Su-57 kits that I know of are the 1/48 ones. If you're looking for rivets, maybe Trumpeter will jump in sooner than Hase; the Zvezda kit is very basic in that regard, but the engravings are well done. And I'll get my popcorn ready for your build of the F-14.
