Why not just shell out 30 bucks for a bootleg, Macross Design Works. The mecha is in there and you can keep at your fingertips for quick referencing.

Here is the back of the Taka 1/100 Conversion Kit. Hope to see this custom come to fruition. BTW, it was nice meeting you at the Con.

I also found this??? Custom???

Try this. I'll look for more.

Keep it in a closed container in the freezer if you want it to last (the taste will also be preserved). It could last about a year properly stored. You could even re-enter it at the next Con, as a commission job . BTW, could you send me a copy of Seichii's disc. Thanks, NB4M.

Thanks Solscud for making my first Con a pleasure and very memorable. I wish I could have been there earlier. Thanks to Shawn for keeping MW alive. And thanks to everyone who make MW what it is...family.

Could this stem from inspiration of seeing the Paper Monster at the Con this past weekend? I think this project is going to be a monster in itself, goodluck on the build Jason. Funny thing is, I was actually contemplating the same thing. BTW, did you get my e-mail about the 1/55 parts?

Yeah, I to do not condone "ahem" piracy, yet I too would like what he's having. Also, Solscud could you send me that copy of Seichi's disc. Thanks! Glad you guys enjoyed the cake. So who kept the cockpit? Since it was never eaten. Wish I could have joined you guys at dinner. Maybe next time, we'll do something or other.

This little JM is beyond words.... You really had to be there and talk with Rohby on how he created this thing. KidKorrupt and I were in complete mesmerized awe when he bagan to demonstrate it abilities. When, Rohby began transforming it, everyone in the room just held their breath (only cause Rohby had stated some of the pieces were not completely ready for transformation). ***Note: the JM is entirely scratchbuilt. None of the parts on that little guy came from an original JM. Great job Rohby!!!

Unfortunately, I missed the entire session with Mari, but BigKid24 and Solscud were cool enough to get me an autographed CD. Thanks guys!! I had a great time meeting new people and making friends. Hope you guys enjoyed the cake.

I basically pulled an all-nighter to get this MG 2 strike custom done in time for the Con. It looks really good standing next to its older brother (the MG 1 strike on the right). When I saw those two next to each other at the Con, my jaw just dropped. Seeing those in person is trully an awesome experrience. Excellent work Anasazi37!!!

I think the first thing you should do is take the valkyrie apart. You don't want to try and remedy the problem with the valkyrie fully intact. From the looks of it, it seems as if what you used had a bad chemical reaction that actually melted the parts in question. You might want to consider wet sanding the part with 1200 grit. Then, once the part seems somewhat smooth, polish it with a dremel tool and polishing attachment. Other than that, you either find replacement parts or paint it. Just remember when restoring a toy, it really is about patience. You must not rush the process of wanding as it will damage the parts further (loosing details and such). If you are coming to the Con, bring it with you and I'm more than sure I can help. Remember, patience is the key. NB4M

That's pretty cute and funny. Still I would much rather eat Milia. (Don't even think about it, you perverts). Where did you find that?

What's the exact location???

I wonder if this is how god works when he created woman??? Great job! Can't wait to see the finished sculpt.

Hey guys, it looks like I will be making it to the Con after all. Only thing is I will be there after noon, or so. I really wasn't sure if I was going to make it but my wife waid to go ahead and just take the rest of the day off, she'll cover for me the reaminer of the day. The reason why I will be arriving at after noon is that I will be visiting my recently departed father. Paying my respects on "Father's Day". Solscud007, can you confirm the number of attendees to the Con? I am a professional cake decorator (part time) and would like to bring a cake that would be enough for all!!!! This will definitely be a custom cake I will be entering in the customs contest. Hope I can something, at least a congratulations or a door prize. If not, at least i will be able to meet fellow members of MW. See ya' there.

HOW ABOUT A PIC???

If your looking to remove the white residue that is produced from using "Crazy" glue, then I think you might have to wet sand the area with 1200 or higher grit sand paper. After you are done sanding then you can use the polisher to smooth the surface even further and produce and nice smooth appearance. Beware, this only applies well the WHITE (and I mean WHITE, not off-white, not close to white, but WHITE) valkyries. If the valk is slightly yellowed then you will end up with an unsightly bright spot. Or unless, your looking to paint it the option is yours, restore or custom. Hope this helps. NB4M

...and here is the direct link. for the polishing tools.

Nice Job!!! I like the three variations shown like that. All you need now is a Gerwalk/Valkyrie and you'll have the old imai kits that came with the four varaitions of the VF transformations. Except, yours will be much better. Now how about some close-ups??

Have you ever tried using a polishing wheel attached to a Dremel?

Got Pics?

My condolences to you, NB4M. Well, I am not coming either since the flights I want are not there for the price I want but another problem propped up medical wise for me. Not to bring this thread down further... I would like to go and bring my Blue Angels 1/48 to enter. Hope to see the pictures when I am sitting in the hospital or at home. Thanks, everyone. Godzilla, I hope it's not too serious. Get better soon. NB4M

I know this isn't lineart but it can help with the cockpit paint details.
