    Hi-Metal R

    Yes, I'm very keen to know if it's just a reissue or if something new is added or tweeked..
  15. Very nice ! Happy Holidays mate !
  16. I really like the head sculpt. But don't care for those big anime hands in proportion to the overall size. They especially make the gun pod look tiny.
  17. Definitely great inspiration. I noticed this one is labeled 1/60. Someone worked that Chogokin really good !
  18. It's not Macross. But it is Iron Castle. And it is cool
  19. That is sweet !
  20. Looking really good @derex3592 you're almost there!
  21. Looks great! That's awesome you're printing parts for it. Including the sensor mast. I used a piece of model sprue and some putty for mine, but it warped. Back to square one.. Looking forward to seeing this come along
  22. So i have questions..concerning DYRL style hangar and launch bay configuration. Let's just use the ARMD as an example. Are there any solid line art (or any art) references that give a good idea on the layout and relation (to each other) of these spaces? I'm trying to create a Megaroad hangar diorama and I'm keen to be as similar and accurate as DYRL and Flashback as i can. I myself haven't found enough info to piece it all together. Now, i have IDEAS, based on real world carriers and , most importantly, based on Macross world carriers. And I've come up with two designs. I've also done many drawings with scale ruler and technical pencil. But they're busy and confusing. So i did a few chicken scratches , for simplicity's sake. As of now, any information or pointing in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!
  23. That's because they don't do enemy mechs in 1/60 , or 1/48
  24. That's looking great @Urashiman Love the pilot ! OK guys, so I've been mulling this over and over for a few months. And doing drawings and interweb sleuthing for references...but I'm still undecided ! I've been trying to design a Megaroad hangar and even for the SDF-1 there are few line art drawings depicting enough information to piece together the (mostly) full picture. At least for me. As a side note, I'm leaning hard towards DYRL style. so , without getting too technical , detailed and lost down the rabbit hole, i quickly sketched my main two ideas for you folks to consider. If you can interpret my chicken scratch, hats off. This is bearing in mind real world aircraft carrier stuff, but most importantly, Macross world stuff. So here's the first sketch idea. #1 is a side view, wherein the main hangar(s) has an elevator going up to the main launch bay(s) . The VF would be rotated 180 degrees on the elevator platform, for proper orientation.There the launch arm grabs the VF and deploys it. There are two "blast doors" involved , for redundant security. The drawing depicts multi levels. #2 is a top view. Which shows the difference in design more easily. From the main hangar , a VF passes through a single "blast door" into the launch bay, where it is then lifted and deployed by the launch arm. There is no elevator involved in this design. A VF could potentially enter from either side of the launch bay. I have all kinds of reasons for choosing either. So any input would be most welcome! And there's always the possibility of combining features from both designs. Of course. I will probably ask this in another, more technical based thread, but i want to ask you folks first because you are the ones who actually do the work of building . And I always go to the builders first. Cheers.
