NZEOD, That's some lovely shine! I would love to see it in real life without the light glare. Mechtech, That's fine, fine work. I thought you said it would be a "quick and dirty weekend build"? Not even sure how you do all that...
-
Glad you're doing a new valk. I bet it will look clean and sexy.
-
Good to know. Thanks for clarifying the difference.
-
Glad we are having this discussion! I guess the Miliput is less prone to bubbles. I have been using Alumilite Clear Resin. Seems to shrink as it dries in addition to bubbles throughout, even though I leave several air valves. Drives me crazy.
-
Chas, I find its hard to avoid bubbles in the cast with small parts. Whats the solution?

I'm partial to lighting because my paint skills aren't what I want them to be. But if you combine an artist with lighting, killer combo!

Join the club! Once I hit 40, bring on the reading glasses. That vision aint coming back.

Nice! Everyone needs a Falcon. Are you using this entire photo etch set, or just what you mentioned? http://www.greenstrawberry.cz/yt-1300-millennium-falcon.php

Love the realistic rivets and details on that plane. All valks should have them.

Good question. It's your mech after all, but Annihilator does match with Monster, so it's not wrong per se. Ragnarok is Delta-ish. Chimaera reminds me of this:

As much as I'd like one, I'll stick to my Yamato. It was USD 20 back in the day. Always planned to tailor make a cape for it. So now is the time.
-
Man, that is exciting stuff. You really pulled it off.
-
I suspect this will be expensive: USD 400-450.

NZEOD, Nice scheme. Can't be sure, but maybe your decals cracked from too much decal solvent? Or old decals falling apart? Happens to me all the time. Pengbuzz, Don't listen to haters. Everyone works at their own skill level.

Anyone know pre-order date? -
"No, have you?"

Great display!

Thom, The Kirishima looks perfect. Nyanko, Were there any Zentraedi among those pirates?
-
It looks a bit different than the SHE, with some screws hidden. But I always thought that the SHE and Tamashii were the same version?? Personally, i love my Yamato version, although I know it gets a lot of hate. I think people just misunderstood it, and it was ahead of its time. Mine is tight in both forms, and made of high quality plastic. Classic Yamato quality. People complained it was floppy during transformation: Of course it is. Look at all the valks we have had since. They're a mess during transformation and you need about 3 hands to get them anywhere.

I need to learn how to paint... Do you sand the paint between layers, or use micro mesh?
-
Or, it looks like some Glaugs were killed to develop it...
-
Classy choice! Destroid all the way.
-
Thom, what are you planning for the panel lines?
-
Oops...I also thought it was a 21. Yes, very unique schemes, now we just need to get you a better camera so we can actually see them! It is an old kit, but your work on the SDF-1 looked great from the start. Congrats! But can she gloss coat? That's a very delicious red coat. If you are not sure about the chest, try on the backpack. That's were I put 'em on my SDF-1 Jolly Rogers custom.
