Its 2025.... where are you in the macross universe
SpacePirateNeko replied to SpacePirateNeko's topic in Movies and TV Series
Yknow i think id be stuck on earth too...dreaming of heading out towards the stars. That would make a great concept ....maybe 2110, earth was again decimated by an event and earth is long forgotten by the colonists that had since long departed into the stars. A lonely story of someone who wants to head out towards the stars but has to get some leftover ancient valk tech working, builds a new valk out of it, -
we all survived zentradi bombardment since we are posting here... so where did you end up in our current year. 2025: Megaroad-13 colonizes planet Varauta 2027: Windermereans first encountered humans upon the Megaroad-04's discovery of their planet. Diplomatic relations were established on terms which some Windermereans strongly resented. 2030: (September) new Macross class transports or New Macross-class are launched. 2031: the 21st colonial expedition, Macross Galaxy, launched from planet Eden. Macross Galaxy fleet is also said to have been composed of "9th Large-scale emigration fleet, the 51st Super-Long-Distance colonization fleet and the 21st New Macross Class Emigration Fleet". Lead ship: Macross Galaxy aka Macross 21

all these wonderful hasegawas over the last few years...and i now live where i can get to akihabara or Leonardo in 20 minutes. Yet i cant justify buying them since i have such a large backlog of models =p. I really really really wish they would make a new 1/48.

Sorry , its been awhile. Basically, i have been having an allergic reaction that causes random welts and swelling in hands and feet. Had a test, no allergies found, no blood problems found. I still have no idea whats doing it. I know its not the resin, i havnt touched anything in months, for now everythings on hold. If i can return to this in the future im going to focus on the obscure flying craft only.

The set will come with parts for 1/72 , alternate slightly more detailed parts for 1/48 version. Split parts for smaller 3d printers, and non split parts if you have an industrial printer. As well as all that , it will include all sizes at 1/1 so everything can be scaled at will with instructions on what percent to scale the parts to for the scale you want ( ex its 13.89 percent for 1/72). All parts have interlocking pieces so its easier to fit and glue.

welp....user error. Wasted about 30 dollars worth of resin because i didnt notice i hadnt filled enough resin into the tray. Everything wasted except a few small parts. The good news is , everything looks good to go. However id like a completed print before i sell this. Even though the model itself is good, i refuse to sell anything unless i have a successful print to show you guys. Next week is golden week so ill have lots of time . I havnt seen many responses to this post ....is anyone still interested in this?

So, i did a 1/72 test print. Most of it is really good, however i am going to have to revise the details and some aspects of the cabin, most of the pieces are just too frail and delicate at that size including the window bars of the cabin. I am going to make a seperate cabin for 1/72 prints with thicker bars and a simplified dashboard. The original cabin will be included too for 1/48 and larger builds if you so wish. The set will include a 1/72 version, 1/48 version and individual 1/1 free versions. The price is going to be around 25 dollars. I will revise the 1/72 cabin this week. and should have it printed next weekend. If it all goes well it will go on sale the next day . pictures incoming later.
-
Anyone have any advice on the best way to print these, ie particular low priced printers and best brand or type of water slide paper?
-
Pulling this one out of the oven, sorry for the wait. I am going to do a test print (possibly tomorrow) in 1/48. If it all goes well ill put the file up by next week. If it sells well i will try and get the VF-x7 out much much faster ( i have many projects going on including work )
-
Looks great! im working on a 1/100 junchoon now, i have no idea why these wave kits are so expensive....the tooling is awful, giant gaps and warped edges. I have a full boomerang kit too...i hope that ones better.

Sorry for the long delay, all thats left is to do is finish up the cabin dashboard and then the grueling process of splitting it up properly. Almost there, The bomber and vf-7 has already begun. I may do a quick little truck inbetween that just to get back on track.
-
Anyone else a resident of Tokyo or close enough. Just wondering how many of us there are and if anyone would ever want to plan anything ( or even just take a trip to Leonardo or broadway

Does anyone know a good website to find scanned old decals to print out yourself? So many of my kits are so old the decals fall apart so easily. I tried spraying them with surfacer and other techniques and they still crumble.

I think ill call the gold knight finished, the volks models are awful tooling, i should have filled the caps. Whats on my workbench though? many many things, See if you can guess with whats visible .
