  1. Really nice shots Saburo, as always! But I can't help notice the wrong rear fins angle in battroid mode... Additionnally, in gerwalk, it seems to me that they are supposed to have the same angle as in battroid mode.
  2. Knowing that this deck is for the 1:72 F14, I hacked the F14 vs VF-0 size chart. In fact the VF-0 is in between the F14 in 1:60 and 1:72, so I think that it would be a good fit.
  3. I have somewhere a folder with a few pictures of the Frameout addons for the VF-1. I can leave you an email with everything zipped, let me know.
  4. Just came across HERPA website and found out interesting new line called "TOP GUN", the line is scheduled for 2016 and will feature many elements in 1/72 scale, including deck Crew, deck vehicules, etc I found the deck very interesting for the Zero line! But 42 cm x 26 cm would be a bit too big for a Detolf
  5. Wouhou! I am so happy to see these shipping to forum members, it is like seeing a baby making its first steps out of the house!
  6. Unfortunately I don't plan to make a kit for in 1:72 scale.
  7. This thing looks bigger than 1/750!
  8. Still good, any flavor preference? (Painting&assembling, landing gears)
  9. 1D with redesigned canopy
  10. Thanks for the great words. Your computer specs are killing mine by a great amount. I use sketchup only, but I would love to move to more convenient software such as blender. I am curious to learn more on which software would be recommend to you also
  11. I think you are mixing this thread which is about the ghost X-9 and the other one that is about the training drone in Macross+. These are 2 different projects
  12. Seems a greater design to me when you consider that it is easier to optimized the ground now, without the central tab. Great job!
  13. Great video! I also love to design for shapeways sls printers, trickier than what was showed in the video if you take into account the sanding and finish to obtain a smooth finish. I would love to make only that but I also need to think about the recast process and this is another additional step, and for this X-9, I also made it entirely fitting together with only screws, no glue. Not mentioning the with moving parts and other stuffs! Well! Its design is complete and I am very happy with it! I hope to have good news sooner or later! Stay tuned and I also take note of interested people !
  14. I remember how this thread began as a gorgeous papercraft build... And now this amazing transforming and detailed sdf-1!
  15. It was originally made for the X-9 ghost but I think it also poses very well with the YF-19 and 21, and yes it can be grabbed on Shapeways.
  16. Gorgious fighter mode!
  17. In the same line ... To terminate or not terminate ...
  18. That would be an awesome center piece of any sort of room, be it in a shop or at home Good luck with that project, I would be looking !
  19. The VF-4 re-release is supposed to have a new version of the missiles that would clip tighter, and some pointed out that the plastic could have a different shade of grey.
  20. I love so much my Arcadia and I am tempted to say everything can be fixed with Arcardia's model. On the opposite, the details that I dislike with Bandai doesn't seem to be fixable: the landing gears are blocky, a few proportions have been biased and are too thick: at first glance this can be because Bandai have larger tolerance on their plastic -lower quality?- I am totally biased against Bandai I recon, I haven't the VF-19 Advance because I didn't want to play the pre-order madness game when it came out, and since then its price has been stratospheric on the ebay/scalper sale markets... Much more higher than Arcadia price. Here are my fixs! Tampo: you can use the ones that came inside the box. Either Arcadia could sell the decals as an accessory and lower their prices or just apply them, but then you are screwed if you want to do a repaint. I would prefer Arcadia to apply them though Detail and panel lines: they are there, just a little to thin. But once you got them high lighten with a wash / airbrush, the YF-19 is gorgeous I have mixed feeling about the nose drop, the YF-19 is supposed to have it when looking at some scenes of the anime, and the VF-19 is definitely straighter. Perhaps Arcadia has overdone it and I would prefer something more toward the Hasegawa nose drop. Loose High speed mode, I posted a fix earlier, very easy to do. Doesn't the Bandai have the same issue ? Loose ankles, here is my fix: you can use a more angled ankle to have them tighter. It works even with straight battroid position and better with dynamic poses. see picture
