Love the foil additions. I love what you did with Max's face paint!

With those old balsa kits, you have to build a spitfire, hurricane, Fokker and a Zero too.

I didnt realize those old kits could look so good! Great detailimg work and paint. Very nice yellow on there too! Looking forward to seeing all ten of your kits painted 😏

@Duymon Thank you. Glad you like the details! Next time you need a file, PM me to get you some discounts. Your prints came out clean. Your orientation is the best for getting clean results 👍

Ha ha. I save all my daughters' tiny chains just like yours!

Ouch my back! I'm getting too old for this.

There is no art that shows exactly, but I am pretty sure she floats around using her tentacles. And I think I have finally figured this out! It needs an open flap.

Some more details.

Cool. All hand made?

Hey Steve, How's Japan treating you? I wouldn't cut the ball joints till you had a good replacement ready. I'm sure you can find a good joint system for your needs.

Quick tip for thinning Mr. Hobby Primer Surfacer. I made a mistake and thinned it with isopropyl alcohol, which turned it to goo. Instead of throwing it out, I added half again an amount of lacquer thinner, which fixed the goo, and thinned it out for a clean spray. Results below.

Good feedback, it would look nicer. But engraving panel lines is above my skill level on organic surfaces, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. So I go the easy route and extrude details. On a hard-surface model, panel lines are much easier.

Yeah, you have to give him credit. But it is tough to achieve. I wonder what would be the set up to get a result like that safely.

Some stuff I've been working on. A test print in 1/48 scale.

My own CM's Guld! Some projects are grail items, some projects are for a challenge, and some are just things you never imagined possible. But isn't that what a hobby is for? I've been too busy to hobby very much, but I wanted to print this guy. I had a couple of frustrating print failures, but as usual, it was my lack of experience. I haven't printed a figure this big, and all it needed was stronger supports.

Now that, I don't compehend.

I always wanted to do that effect for the SDF-1 cannon. Is it a Tesla coil? Someone explain to me how safe that is? Is there no heat melting the plastic?

Thank you Xigfrid. You inspired the idea. The bike is now up on my Patreon and Shapeways.

Very nice photography. What's your set up?

I check in for a minute to see what's up, and all I see is a masterpiece. Very nice dirt on that.

Just how do they do it? Beautiful.

Don't know what it is, but looks pretty menacing.

A truly talented artist. I am assuming you are a pro? Beautiful work.

@Bolt @Urashiman I had one more idea for you.

What a beautiful plane. Reminds me of some Miyazaki airships.
