    I would use dish soap and mix with powder to pronounce details. It also serves well to create grease stains depending on the color of the powder. Best part is you apply it to your finished and sealed model. If you aren’t happy with the result, you can always remove it easily with a damp or dry cloth.

    Intake covers for the chest. I figured why not since new details will be created in these spaces.

    I’m currently leaning towards a SDFM VF-1S Hikaru and on the fence about making the Super Parts.

    Modifications to the chest, intakes, and hinge housing for the legs. I think the look is coming along nicely.

    You guys are all amazing builders with some extremely well honed talents. I just try my best to keep up with you guys. I sincerely thank you all for the very kind words. I can only imagine when this project is done. Just messing with edit tools on my IPhone.

    Unix Square KC Collectibles. For three non-transformable figs? These might be going to the bargain bin promptly after release. They look nice, but the price is extremely off putting.

    You should have posted the boxes in the “For Sale” thread. I know for a fact many of us would have snatched them up.

    As a prototype, yes, it may be possible. As a mass production toy, that maybe highly unlikely. But until proven I just don’t see this sold as a standard production toy.

    I use styrene and Plastuct Weld. Depending on the application, mm widths will change as needed. For a build like this I usually use 1.5mm down to .5mm. Any thinner is used for detailing or to build up parts that have been cut a bit short. The door, hinge, and retainer are all styrene, no metal pins needed for this. With the PW I have keep a separate bottle where I add plastic bits and shavings to create goop that acts as a filler and to strengthen joints where gaps are visible. Once thoroughly dry, I can sand the parts smooth. This same concoction will also help you bond styrene to other materials like metals and provide a very solid adhesion. Just be sure to clean and rough the metal surface first. For the landing gear I pre-shape metal rods or paper clips and envelope them with styrene to provide extra rigidity and solid structures. Hope this helps.

    Very talented builder with tons of skill. I love it! Thank you for the awesome share.

    Definitely changing the front landing gear.
  12. nightmareB4macross
    Setting more parts. Legs are just magnetized to stick together. The landing gear are more than strong enough to hold up the weight of a VF-1 with any armor configuration, and more.

    Macronized Singer!

    Watching Macross Zero on Disney+. Ivanov was one hell of an instructor.

    How many actual variants of Jetfire are there? Will this include bagged and reboxed variants?
  16. nightmareB4macross
    There are only a couple more parts to add and then complete the final details.

    I’m sure I have seen parts of this diorama here and there, but never the full display as this. Enjoy.

    Mechanics that work. the leg is balancing on it’s own with no screws holding the halves together.
  21. nightmareB4macross
    Just a quick comparison.
  22. nightmareB4macross
    Why is there a VF-19 nosecone on the back? This thing will be a brick and half once it’s in alt mode. Make it stop.
  23. nightmareB4macross
    Eww. Even the 90’s had some self respect. 🤣
  24. nightmareB4macross
    For the love of Macross, please make it stop. I’m happy to see Macross have more exposure via a more prominent brand, but this just isn’t right. 🥲

    Found it on eBay of all places.
