You're the first in notice that! Thank you, that is a Pinup designed by myself, specially for the Armored. I used the oficial picture of the Iron Man's HulkBuster bust from Bowen Designs. I really think that the concept is Ad-hoc. After all, Iron Man is my Favorite Superhero and Character from I was a Kid. My problem is the english. I speak spanish, so I spend a lot of time redacting a post in english. But I'll think about it. Thank you for the support. Thank you for appreciate that tedious work. I learned too much building this kit. And that was because I did must redo a lot of things! And also, this recast had A LOT of bubbles. That was a terrible headache. Hinges was a problem too, because I needed to fix it in each piece, and make it resistant. CA in not enough. Thank you, that's a really good Nick Name, I'll remember it!!

Looks great. Here is pics from lineart: Maybe the front and rear part needs some revision, but It's looking good.

Don't worry about it, It's not a patented invention Exactly. For this partuicular case, I used 3/16" (4.8 mm)aluminium tubes and 5/32" (4mm) plastruct rods. And yes, they are waterslide decals. I used Testor's Decal Paper.

Take it easy my friend... Sun always shine after the storm. Just be quiet and be strong, your children needs you more than ever.

Missile #2 build-up: I used only a plastruct rod. I made its head with a drill: After that, I made custon decals in excell: Finished missiles: Final ubication: I hope do you like it.

I toke those pictures in the nigth, because of that they're not the best. Here are some pictures about the missile build-up: Original Lineart: Missile #1: Missile #2: Missile #1 build Up (56 units): I made it in 2 pieces for easier painting. I used aluminium tubes, because they're thinner than plastruct tubes (this results better than Missiles I made for Phalanx)

Hello guys, here is my recent build-up: the 1/72 VF-1J Armored. It's a recast from the Neograde original conversion kit, for Hasegawa Battroid. I made again the missiles, to paint it easier and with better result. I add detail with custom decals, too. Also, I replaced hinges, because the originals were too big. By the way, I add details with www.mechaskunk.com accesories... great stuff!! And here is with the family: I'll waiting your comments.

Great! I want to do the same... thanks for sharing!!

Yes, may be it's a reissue... but these were the first photos showed by Neograde when they deloped this kit. I'm actually finishing one of these, so be alert if you see a new thread made by me!

I'm impressed. Your domain of proportions is unbelievable. You turns 2D into 3D so easily!!

I hope that someday I could assist to a MacrossWorld Con, it should be great to share my collection with you.

Wow Maiden Japan, your Optimus is the best that I've ever seen. Yes, add some weathering, but not too much! PD: You are my Idol!

I didn't saw this topic, until now. Your work is trully awesome, I have no words. And congratulations for the Prize!!

Gigantic!!

Take your time... for let us to get the rest of the money!

John did a conversion kit to adapt a 1/48 Yamato Valk into a VF-1D version. But this was for a toy, because of that I think is not included in their Macross Model Kit Collection. I also have the conversion kit for Hasegawa, but I don't remember who did it. I'll check it in home.

?--> Indicates that I'm not sure about the order, but these are the kits: I - Booster? II - Pylon? III - Standard Regult IV - Light Armor Zentran Soldier? V - Launcher Vehicle? VI - Destroido Pharanx VII - Destoroido Tomahawk VIII - Destoroido Defender IX - Regult Heavy Missle X - Regult Light Missle XI - Regult Scout Type XII - Destoroido Spaltan XIII - Gnerl XIV - Kamjin XV - Commanchero Gunship

Fantastic Job. I'll want one, for shure. I can't wait to see it finished!

Count on me for any rare Valk not produced previously.

Looks great! I love that red!

Wow! This guide will be my bible!!! I did'n see it until now... It looks incredible!!
