I hope she comes with an alternate head; poor Jean looks a might bit constipated there! O.O

Right? At the rate they're going with sound and music, the next thing you know, a bunch of drunk NUNS pilots will be using beer farts as a weapon! O,O

Just finished a side project: Backdrop artwork:

To put the landing gear "up", I would most likely use sheet styrene and make one piece to fill the space for the doors, then scribe the panel lines on them. Might need to "roll" the panels a little to make them fit, but it would be better in my mind than trying to glue individual panels together. Right? I'd like to get a 1/48 battroid sometime!

Yeah, it is a bit tiny compared even to the '14: Even worse on top of a VF-0:

The 'Hey look at this really cool model build I saw' post

I like big bots and I cannot lie... -
Solved. Meantime, next project: Clue:

Thanks! Ultimately planning on making Boldoza, Quamzin Kravshera ("Khyron" for those only familiar with RT) and perhaps expanding the bridge. Would also like to make Claudia and the Bridge Bunnies (to finish out my 4-inch "miclone" series, and the SDF-1 Main Bridge for them to "man". (and the lower Bridge display/ "stage" that Minmay used in DYRL) Nice!! Do you plan on getting Magnus, Kup and Blurr as well? That would rock!

Jonny Quest Dragonfly Supersonic Transport: This was a royal pain to paint freehand (not happy with it; inaccurate, but the best I can so nowadays): nose and aft: Scale compared to spray can and ruler:

This is why I insist on physical media (books, cd and cassette). If I pay for it, it's mine.

Yeah; I suspected as much, but it was the only other one I could find.

I'm so sorry MT; I know how much this hurts.

Saw this, not sure how much help (if any) it may be: https://www.ebay.com/itm/375086549639

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next
pengbuzz replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I wonder if some kind of deal could be struck to allow that? I know HG had some bad blood with Hasbro, but since Jetfire is a recolor of the VF-1, perhaps BW could work something out with Hasbro/ TakaraTomy? -

Current project:

Thanks Thom. I started this one after my visit to the ER the other day (CT and MRI scans ╪ fun) . She doesn't stand very well on her own, so I plan on doing a base for her that resembles the platform she performed on on the Macross bridge. The one she was photographed on doesn't work well for her, and it broke shortly after the photo shoot. I still need to detail her face and stuff.

1/48 is too small: in building a 1/48 Legioss, it was only as big in soldier mode as a VF-1: At the 1/32 scale, they would be able to do better detail (personally, I would redo the cockpit and put a 1/72 scale fig into the 1/48 myself, but what do I know?) and more convincingly. Some mechs just don't translate well to some scales.

More like 1/11 scale.

Thanks everyone!! Yeah; nice to have that one finally done! Meanwhile: I came across this one recently at a flea market dirt cheap: May build it or trade it; don't know.

Finally got the blimp done: Replaced the solid plastic gondola with a transparent custom made one: Other side: Ended up printing the Goodyear lettering and tail decals at the library on regular paper, cutting it all out ( royal pain!) and gluing it to the model kit. The lighting system (bulbs and all) went to crap, so I simply tore it all out and soldered in the guts from a Harbor Freight LED light (blue one with a"strip" of lights down the center) along with the battery enclosure, and plastic-welding it to the old battery compartment in the center of the "message drum": The stand is a custom-made cradle, specially designed to hold this (since the kit has to split in half to change messages/ batteries): Closer look: Custom-printed plaque on stand: Live test of message system on blimp:
