They sold Cobywan's LancerII and it wasn't a recast.

LMAO!!! that was the reaction I was hoping for, you played into my hands all too easily!!!

Nope, I didn't hear anyone say bump, but I was wondering....will Yamato ever make a toy of this sucker?....pokes LTSO....runs for cover LOL!

You are pure genius my friend, those look so awesome. I'll take like five.

No serious modeler should be without Future as part of their painting regime.

yeah I've actually got the first two, but to really make a great city scene I'd need so many of those and they're fricken expensive. I need patterns or something so I can make a highrise out of sheet styrene.

Man I wish those modern buildings were offered in 1/72 scale, or at least HO scale.

Fast packs? I need the whole thing in 1/72, hello??? anyone?

Shoot what a rip off, I'll sell you the one I have for only 2k lol

That looks so awesome man, can you please explain your technique for creating the tiger stripes?

That's the best lookin' hover tank I think I've seen, perfect!

That looks really great Bertt, thanks for sharing. When I do mine I probably won't weather it quite so much. The base you made kicks ass man!

how large would that come out to then Thorsten?

Yeah the Imaii kit is a biatch to convert, took me forever to do mine.

you know what else would be cool is if it sprayed blood fertilizer, oh man saweet!

And the mind begins to slip already tsk tsk tsk Damn kids!

So what's keepin' yah Coby?

That came out really nice man! I love it.

I think the part that bothers me the most are those big ol' hinges in the chest, looks like a toy...a bad one.

hmm I'm not sure what to think about that, it looks like a quality casting job and it's neat and all but it deviates a bit too much from the original and the parts don't look like that fit all then well together.

Well if you're going with 1/32 scale your choices get much more limited in model companies, Trumpeter and Acadamy are doing a kick ass job with their new kits of modern aircraft. I bought the latest F-14 release from Tamiya and I'm not impressed, actually pretty pissed, it's a combination of old and new parts, some parts have recessed panel lines like the front part and then the body has raised. The fit between the two was horrible, like 1/16 of an inch off, so sanding and filling took an eternity. Some versions of aircraft you don't even have a choice though, if you want a 1/32 A-4 you have to buy the Hasegawa with raised panel lines. The 1/32 British Tornado you have to buy from Revell and it sucks as well. Fortunately I love to modify these kits and there's tons of add-on parts for them, the color photo etch kits from Eduard are particularly nice as are the resin detail kits from Black Box.

where in the heck has Thorsten gone?

You need to hang out on the starship modeler discussion board 007, the star wars section is like MW in that there's always some guy mastering some kinda star wars kit.

That's really coming together nicely man

That's really cool, I wonder what scale those are?
