I wonder if a Fan Racer is coming down the line!

Great reviews! I plan on doing my Moscato copy with wings folded on the deck! Working on vac form canopies for it.

I've run a few test pieces and I'm not quite happy with them. I'm going to up my vac form system. I have a "no crap leaves the shop" policy. Stay tuned!

Nice work! Love the cannon firing.

Yes, I did do video but it was fairly dark. I just got my camera game in order so I can do proper images! Thanks again for the kind words all. How are you ChristopherB?

working on it!

very cool!

Thanks you for your interest. I've got the Sundowners "rising sun" painted on the vertical stabs. I had a 1/48 scale decal set of Sundowners for the F5 Freedom fighter aggressor squadron - I scanned it at a 66% reduction and printed it out. I then rough cut it out and glued it down (gluestick) to the top of some 40mm Tamiya tape and then cut out the white sections (the negative). I painted the stabs red and then used the mask over the red, then painted on the white (Mr. Color 1). One of my specialities is cracking canopies. No build is complete without one stress fracture and this one has the rear section cracked. Will vac form another!

Thanks for the nice comments! It was a huge build. The original kit comes with pieces to show the cockpit face open up and there was a Meltran bust to fit inside; it just goes to show the level of detail the Captain puts into his kits! It's a bit hard to see but I added lights to the sensor dome, eye and back thrusters - those pieces were included in clear red resin! I read somewhere that the Zentradi/Meltrandi mecha was built by slave-labour from conquered species so that and the face that they were a warrior race factored into my weathering concept. I have another awesome MHM project in progress, so stay tuned for that!

awesome!

nice work! looks ready for takeoff!

Here's a set of detailed pics of the Moscato Hobby Models 1/72 Queadluun Rau! It's a beautiful kit and I recommend everyone get at least one MHM kit for the experience. I'm really pleased how this build turned out. Although the pose was more of standing one, I envisioned it flying. Since it flies through deep space and within the atmosphere, I expected it to be fairly weathered and combat experienced. The model disconnects from the base via a 1/8" stereo jack for easy transpo/storage. 1`

Ok! Marc from Neptune Survey has sent me the canopy bucks and they have arrived! I'll fire up the Vacformer on the weekend and get some copies going. Anyone need a set let me know, but be patient. Thanks again Marc! ~anth

Here' a Little update on the Lightning build. I've done some pre/post shading and it's coming along. You can see some of the weapons loadout that will be added to this bird. I also got some red down for the Sundowners markings and I've been working on making some of my own masks for painting it. More to follow ~ Anth

Thanks! I finally figured out the perfect stand for flying posed subjects after forever having them dangling around. I'm now using a ball joint with some interlocking brass rod.

Thanks all! I will post more shots including another amazing Moscato project!

Here is my build up of the VF-4. I have several projects on the go, I will start some build topics for them. The plan is to do a tan version in Sundowners livery with an asymmetric loadout. I will add some updates fast and furiously slowly, lol.

Here is my build of the Moscato Hobby Models Queadluun-Rau! A fantastic kit. I just a new camera and have set up a photo station - here is my test shot. I will post some more pics.

I'll let you guys know when I've got them

Ah, 7 years too late!

Cool

Oh excellent, thank you! I'll try making extra copies of the canopies for you when I receive the bucks. I'll try making extra copies of the canopies for you when I receive the bucks.
