Thanks. Is it possible to scan the decal in 300 dpi?

I think anyone that brought Capitan America's Tactical Pod Regult would be interested to see how the IMAI decal looks like. Does anyone have a good scan of the IMAI decal? It would be a great reference to make new decals for the Tatical Pod. Thanks.

Good job on the first try. You might want to add different shading of blue and grey to add realism to Thread. I was trying out Macmaster's brush painting tip last weekend. Here is the result of the AFC-01H Legioss, not quite as good as Macmaster's battlepods, but I learn a lot..

Not sure if this has been posted before. At least, it has more text and build up progress. Hasegawa Variable VF-1

I started another thread about this a while ago. how to build small parts Appearly, it's possible if the right materials were brought. I tried to build the upper arm last weekend with styrene tubes. It was not difficult to make the upper arm.

This is exactly what I was looking for...Time for a shopping spree..Thanks.

It might be easier than I thought to recreate this. My first attempt was using Styrene sheets, and tried to roll it into a tube. That didn't work too well. I didn't know there were styrene tubes for sale. Silly me. How about the joints? There got to be something on hlj that I could use. I just don't know how to use hlj navigation very well. Thanks guys..

Thanks for the tip. I will be sure to pick up a few of those. Any idea about the arm?

Where can I find fist components like this?

I have been trying to build individual parts for a VF-0S Gerwalk. I tried to make small parts out of resin recast of other plastic models, and also eproxy putty. Unfortunately, both methods didn't work for me. What would be the best method to build small parts like this?

This is truely an eye opener for making Hase kits. Check out those light effects in his VF-0A build up. His skill is truely god like. I am so shameful to show my models to anyone now.

Looking good. I still haven't found the time to build mine yet. Looks like I will wait for the shaded version then build it.

That's it folks.

Here is a shot of the nosecone that I prepared.

I tried to chage the nosecone with a heat formed parts, but that didn't go too well. The nosecone is already stuck with the model by crazy glue and putty. I was unable to remove the existing nosecone so I had to give up.
