HWR MKII

Bloody Brilliant. Looks 10X better than mine. Good work. About time someone else built theirs too.

BAH PIGMENTS! Bloody great waste of money. That my friend is my own technique involving wall spackling and tamiya olive drab paint. Add some water and thin how you like. Youd be amazed the effects you can get from just that. Then start adding different paint colors, oil washes and so on. Also my technique has the benefit of being more easily removed and modified once dry. Pigments can be madness if something messes up. despise the things i do.

this just came off the bench. 1/72 revell FAUN SLT-50 with eduard PE set.

in the case of tamiya and hasegawa decals you want to use almost HOT water. It helps the decal stretch and conform more. Once its in place and you have got it on good let it set for a bit and take a paper towel dabbed in scalding hot water and press it on the decal. this will get it down more. Then apply your setting solutions,

A 1/48 VF-1 is not much bigger than an F-16 actually. It is smaller than a F-15 or F-14. Finding space for it shouldnt be an issue. Its not a big jet even compared to the 19.

Now all we need is a weapons set and fold booster from you Cap. That would really give the kit the bulk it needs in this size.

Personally i would like to see the captain do something far out there. Kinda like how fantastic plastic had a contest for people to design a model and the winning one gets made. Something to break the macross stalemate and really show off what John can do. 100% original.

id agree if it wasnt known that wave is revising the sculpt of the kit and no really new images are out yet. While johns is excellent i feel the wave kit will be better and...affordable. not knocking johns kit BTW i own all 4 of his destroids.

Now you know the hell i went through mastering my kit. The kit is being repopped currently too and will be available again in the SSM store in the near months. Hopefully by christmas.

better hurry up and do this before wave releases their 1/72 tomahawk and pulls the rug out from under you.

Oh it would be bigger than that. My 1/72 monster is already over a foot at its tallest main body point.

Looks awesome. About damn time someone else built theres.

Also remember that WAVE is also popping new Ma.K models and retooling the older Ma.K molds. They are more than just macross. It just isnt a priority for them now.

WTF Is going on here. What is it with all this molestation talk and such. Come on guys.

All the rapid prototyping in the world cant match pure skill and talent man. Keep it up. I have been waiting for you to finish this thing.

That IS the hasegawa kit

Thanks WM. 1/20 scale really allows more flexibility in the level of wear one can present.

Getting more falked up

Oh of course this HAS to happen on my birthday!

Quick rundown. The head and its back parts are basically done. The center crotch part is together and the upper thighs have been made. Next ill be making the lower part of the thigh that the organic part of the leg attaches to. Once i have that done ill start making some rough 2D cutouts of the legs and the poses id like then get sculpting from there. Then ill finalize the weapons layout. I need to find a couple good 1/72 50 cal machine guns. No suicide gekko this tima around though. im saving those for something special.

Got the Gekko back on the bench. Another MGS based subject. Small sucker but it will be packed with detail.

Thank You

Yes please go buy a rex...you know you want to

Nice Platoon homage there.

You needed some nudging to get it done though
