Damn that looks amazing!

Going for TV VF-1S Hikaru. I laid down some more color to see the parts (and defects) better. The intakes are the original size, but painting them this way makes them look huge!

So after this, will an official DYRL Skull squadron member be released? It has been years since Bandai teased these.

That’s still a hefty catch. Would be nice to know the actual price. BOA can lead people to believe the higher price listed but the figure could have sold for half the asking price.

@F18LEGIOSS2 Nice work on that wing! Very clean and smooth. @505thAirborne can’t wait to see your finished results. @big F that MaK figure is looking good. Always loved the look and feel of those kits and toys. @Papa Rat sorry if I missed it. Will this be a Milia version? @Mog cool diorama. Well, after finally receiving my tile pattern I got it into place. Originally, I was looking for lattice texture, but realized these were tiles and not divets like a lot of the sculpts represent. glad I spend time doing the research.🧐

That is one ultra glossy VE-1. Seems as if the seller used baby oil to clean it. At that price I would expect to be shown the rear of the figure and all the accessories as I only count one booster armor antenna. My have the prices of VE-1’s risen in past auctions, not sure they are selling that high though.

A quick comparison of all the ill shaped backpacks and their off positions. From a manufacturer’s standpoint their offerings make production easier, but a little more effort could have made the backpack a bit more condensed and folded in the proper GERWALK position. Just my two cents.

Thank you. One day it will be a grand one at that. For now it’s still a baby.

Silly head pilots.

Thank you. Your painting skills are amazing. The Z-Scout and Mospeada look incredible. It has always been a childhood dream to get all this achieved on a 1/55.

For the purposes of line art, I modified the heat baffle of the backpack to recess into the backplate versus being incorrectly attached to the backpack. Works great, especially in fighter mode as it supports the backpack and aligns it perfectly. Still a few dozen tasks or so to complete this, but I think it’s coming along well.

Good Lord you guys are in another level. kudos!!! I am still continuing with humble little build. Completed a few more details.

Great way to honor your history and family. Family first. Thank you for sharing that great story.

You’re very talented. The way you transformed tape like that is pure magic!
