  1. Nice work Jefuemon! Makes me wanna yell for Misa to get out before the baddies come to get them! - MT
  2. AWESOME effect Cesar! The char marks look real. I hope he's got good insurance! - MT
  3. It's cool to see some old school toys with some new life breather into them! - MT
  4. Just do it - MT
  5. REALLY nice touch with the workling oleo struts! - MT
  6. Calvin and Hobbs always seems to simplify life! BAM sells metal works kits. A co-worker has the F-22 (about 1:200th) and it needs no glue - MT http://www.booksamillion.com/search?id=5996766979103&query=metal+works&where=All
  7. Hhhhhooooooovvvvver taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnk in 1/350 to go with the bioroids. That dropship is looking SHWEEEET! - MT
  8. Wow, this is a lot when compared to their Ho-229 (which got good reviews elsewhere): http://www.ebay.com/itm/202002-1-72-Ho-229-Full-Structure-PE-Detail-Model-Jasmine-Model-/141175097266?pt=Model_Kit_US&hash=item20deb107b2#ht_1180wt_916 - MT
  9. Talk about a photetch monstrosity! I must admit I like the silver better than the brass color (closer to aluminum colors). It does look like a knock-off from the few parts I compaired, but I didn't thoroughly look at it. - MT
  10. Looks like you've been having fun! Those are some cool kits and I too am glad the plating fad is mostly over! - MT
  11. Cool! Just build a little at a time. Then give yourself a week per plane for decals The decals alone would intimidate me from those kits. - MT
  12. There's the old Testor's cement (and small window maker): http://www.scalehobbyist.com/catagories/Paint_and_Construction/clear-parts-cement-and-window-maker/TES00003515/product.php?s=4&t=2&u=0 The GOOD stuff is GS Hypo Cement (they've been around along time too): http://www.scalehobbyist.com/catagories/Paint_and_Construction/clear-parts-cement-and-window-maker/TES00003515/product.php?s=4&t=2&u=0 - MT
  13. Sorry, it's an old book from the 80's long out of print now. - MT
  14. That looks awesome EXO! I can almost smell the resin... I would also reccomend the passengers be molded in color - for the sake of the purchasers sanity (like me) - just sayin' - MT
  15. Just had some time to stroll through more threads - this is funny!!! Talk about flashbacks! "When you can grab this pebble from my hand..." Yeah, I saw it "live" too! - MT
  16. Great finish on it, epspecially if this is an "early" venture for you with an airbrush! For some reason the photos keep reminding me of the Macross Modelling Manual (especially when it was glossy). - MT
  17. That's what happens when you mix hallucinagenic drugs and plastic Looks like the Japanese version of H.R. Puffinstuff! - MT
  18. NICE design and REALLY cool! - MT
  19. The Olson Special is rarer! This might help you from ebay: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p2055119.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xorguss+model+kit&_nkw=orguss+model+kit&_sacat=0&_from=R40 - MT
  20. Same here! I never saw the series, BUT I LOVED that design! I bought it reboxed as a Battletech "kit" (along with other great Macross and Crusher Joe kits). - MT
  21. That build is the PNULTIMATE build - especially in 1/350th scale!!! It looks like a larger scale build. I've gotta say this is one of THE BEST of the BEST!!! - MT
  22. This looks AWESOME EXO! Yeah, STUPID anime magic! The problem with the lineart is that the drawing gives an idea of what it's -supposed- to look like. Too often a lot of us think of them as blueprints. The newer CGI stuff will pass as blueprints because it's actually "modeled." I'm gonna get one of these for sure too! Maybe we can make payment installments - buy the bottom half then the top half - MT
  23. That's some good paint! I've cleaned real aircraft parts with it and that's how I found out about Pinesol being, well, a solvent (like the name). If the plastic is ABS, it should be safe to use on. Soaking for a week and then nothing, I'm astonished! - MT
  24. "It's so big i can't fit it in my shop for pics, so i need to take it in my living room" That about says it all right there!!! I bet the family had to wait outside while you were shooting AWESOME BUILD!!! It's BIG and BEAUTIFUL!!! I'd contact Hobby Japan and askk if they're interested in your model as an article. - MT
