  1. That last group shot shows also a HG Gipsy Avenger kit at the left.
  2. Meet the Jaegers Turns out this early concept art was the real thing
  3. Yeah, it's a dangerous road they're taking. Still it looks fantastic.
  4. The line is easy side money for Hase, just pop in a different mold color and a new decal sheet. But most of the AC designs are pretty cool (and more exciting than the lo-viz paintjob of the real life plane). Since Bandai is in the game, too, I wonder if they pick up the ball one day on the more outlandish designs. Their Falken was a really good kit.
  5. ...and then the synths go Full Genocide with alien goo!
  6. I'm still on the fence about the UPEO Typhoon, and now this... Nice work, Hase!
  7. I think there's less discussion than on the hull color of the TOS Enterprise, so plain white will do (though I'm no authority on that matter). - Updating the Viggen cockpit
  8. Great, Bandai. Now do them in the Re/100 line!
  9. Intron Depot 1 is the book you must own anyway. Forget the other books in that series, though.
  10. There are Firefox garage kits around: http://www.anigrand.com/AA6014_Mig-31.htm http://www.inpayne.com/models/scifi/firefox1.html
  11. Best 80s stealth fighter:
  12. I use water-based gouache for washes & panel lines.
  13. I avoid clear coats as much as possible due to these potential hazards.
  14. It's thicker, so it has more filling power and doesn't shrink that much, but still thin enough to go into fine cracks.
  15. I'm a fan of Mr. Dissolved Putty. Works also on air bubbles in resin kits.
  16. I don't think the gel cement will harden enough to make a good transition. Do you have any superglue within reach?
  17. Despite being an original cast, some seamlines are pretty bad. I needed to build up certain areas with polyester putty and re-construct the lost details. But the first 1/100 Mortar Headd I completed years ago was from the same era, and the cast was much better.
  18. The F-35 is the new iPhone...
  19. At some point somebody must have thought it was a good idea to make the Lego Star Wars Games into a live action movie, which led to Lord & Miller...
  20. I think the Tristan kit looks quite decent when properly painted. http://zgmfxg.web.fc2.com/GUNDAM/Twilight_AXIS/HGUC/TRISTAN/2/HGUC_GUNDAM_AN01_TRISTAN2_1.html
  21. I only saw three failed attempts to pull a cobra...
  22. I need those duct fins!
