  1. Thank you all for enjoying this build and all the wonderful compliments. It’s really endearing to read your kind words or encouragement. The custom 1/55 is a true sight to behold. Long live the KING!!!
  2. Still filling in the gaps.
  3. Very true. That is something that was previously discussed and a concern since Toynami is known to cheap out.
  4. WOW. That’s a really nice compliment. Thank you. If only I had the manufacturing capabilities I would make this available to everyone.
  5. Maybe he thinks he’s stealthier than your SR-71 Blackbird. 😜 Gotta give ‘em love.
  6. Finally. Upgraded my chest hinges. The originals did an amazing job, but I can see they were never meant to last. But these little buggers are what set off a tirade of improvements. Note that I can just hold the cheat plate and the nosecone stays in fighter mode. Finally, gotta love the capabilities of this neck. Reminds me of a certain box art.
  7. Looks nice, but seems a tad short. I think Sculpts from MLZ22 nailed the scale and perspective of their size.
  8. I think for the most part the Bandai version will prevail worldwide. Toynami’s version might have equal share of sales in U.S.
  9. My guess… Missile bays for a Legioss.
  10. I think you might be right about that. 😅
  11. Created a functional neck-gap filler.
  12. I sure hope so. My heart just fluttered.
  13. I usually let Vallejo paints cure for three days. This allows them to fully dry out and have full adhesion to the surface. If you are planning to use lighter fluid it could get under the paint when cleaning. Use a toothpick dipped and soaked in lighter fluid. Using a cotton swap dipped in lighter fluid can help. Just brush away the edge first and then work the edge are from the surface you want to preserve. Some of the lighter fluid get on your paint, don’t worry. Leave it alone and let it dry.
  14. I do. What can I help you with?
  15. That came out great. Those pieces are tiny and your work shines through.
  16. Try liquid mask. It’s great for those complex and tight spaces. Use a brush and toothpick to apply it.
  17. That should be a must, and a VF-1D. Fingers crossed.
  18. One more shot of the cabin.
  19. Fighter Cockpit and Battroid Control Room done!
  20. Yup, a missed opportunity indeed. More improvements could have been done. Bandai is just pandering hard for nostalgia sales on this one. Well, at least they will know I am down to get one.
  21. Long live the KING!
