    Still says outward dispatch from the usual. Ugh kmon its been a week! Ooooo never mind it is in town. Still questionable it'll arrive today. Once in a while it just stays for a day. But I know ill have to sign for the bugger.

    Mine still shows outward dispatch from San Fran since yesterday afternoon. It SHOULD be in portland if not Wilsonville late tonight and delivered tomorrow. SHOULD, bu doesn't mean it will.

    Ugh I would not want to tackle reprinting that nose cone from gray to faded yellow. I'm going to hopefully pick up decal sheets tonight. Che and I talked it over and we both agreed the color is very close to our Apollo squadron app. All it'll need are the logos on the tail wings.

    Well this really does suck, I had such a huge announcement I was ready to make today, but the channel is shy 5 subs to do it and it's now 2013. Well nuts I guess everyone is just gonna have to wait until this is much more solid.

    2 and half hours to go and only need 7 more subscribers to hit 500.

    Ya know I could of sworn when I ordered mine it went automatically to FedEx and I'm just EMS sitting in Japan since Thursday. Probably wont even see this till next week I think. Not cool for 50 dollar shipping. Just wait and see.
  7. Hikuro
    Really? Could of sworn you had! Maybe was just my personal which I look locked out of. So anyone reading who hasn't subscribed better do so to get the news! Still 8 hours to go

    Ok I gotta remember to check back on that tonight. In other news, my channel has nearly 100 videos and as of yesterday 491 subscribers. I said if we hit 500 before New Years I'd have a huge announcement, one that could shake, rattle and roll the fandom in celebration....I hope. I will be checking the channel today at lunch and again tonight. If I don't see the magic number then ill only tease my channel versus announcing it in whole here as to my plans for 2013. Only a select few I work with if ask I will tell.

    ugh i really need a flight pose for this thing, but the 2.5 inch ones look to damn small for something this grand. And exo's adapters would take 3 weeks to show up from shapeways. Oh the drama.

    Thank you. If I can get more time I plan to do more, I've even got great equipment to make better movies, now if I can just found a sound ripper that'll work on PS3 Blu-ray discs I could gather up a lot better higher quality sound effects and tackle Frontier.

    I'll probably build a new one in the spring after learning some lessons. Essentially to your questions, I used Tamiya Acrylics and except for some joint areas like the shoulders and the plug in parts for the leg intakes no sanding was necessary. However areas like the inner mechanics of the shoulders, the plug ins for the leg intakes and I think a few other areas required sanding, washing off the grit, primer then main paint and they came out just fine. The hardest part about these kits are all the hinge pins, they're very easy to lose, and the number of screws. I've learned that it'll be easier in the future to just buy a new scanner and photoshop the decals into the colors I need, then print them out on decal paper, clear coat them and use my shiloute cameo cutter to cut the parts out. But like I said, we're talking about a long time from now before I try this again. I might even use a lighter paint scheme than this. The gray was still to dark for my taste, and the purple was to glossy.

    at least those covers on the undercarriage can be reattached, that's a plus! Maybe in the morning I'll assemble the spare gunpod I got.
  13. Hikuro
    I thought I'd like the new retro tardis but sadly not right now, guess cause we didn't get a lot to look at. I'm curious to find out what's so special about Oswin gal.

    On my last visit to TRU I saw a ton of Voyager FE's so i had to pick them up, and to me, besides one or two peg fitting quirks they are so much more superior and show accurate in appearance than those Powerizers that were first released. But i was also lucky as I've scored 4 Vehicons with only needing 6 more to complete my ground drone army.

    I've got a spare gun pod from a kit I f up on during the summer. I gotta say very very cool to know we got an attachment! Mine shipped bout 1 this morning, no eta ill suspect after New Years too.

    latest plastic test shot, probably one of the final molds after corrections.
  17. Hikuro
    Hm, I thought I was getting fedex but it's just regular EMS or am I wrong for NY?
  18. Hikuro
    Ya but think about how many of them live in hongkong or Japan where the mass majority go before coming to us. I think we're a bit of the minority lol, unless you're in the UK then well, long wait I guess. Buddy of mine has one hell of a time with his postal service. It all ships fine and dandy till it gets to his side, then it sits, gets bashed around a bit, leaves a notice a few times THEN dropped off. Crap I had a fight with my post office last week for a stupid move they did. I may be screwed too!

    Macross Style

    Hikuro replied to chillyche's topic in Fan Works

    lol you made me gangam style better than I can actually gangam style.
  21. Hikuro
    Well either way, this is a lot of "OH NOES! EVIL HIGHER POWER LEVELS!!!" and "OH NOES! GOKU IS GETTING HIS ASS KICKED!" "Oh, he wins."
  22. Hikuro
    hm, so there are thigh covers that have to be popped off? Well that kind of sucks for 350 bucks.
  23. Hikuro
    great animation test! Now that I got a VF-4 coming, I need to order a flight pose stand so I can get you all the angles you need from fighter to gerwalk to battroid and all the inbetweens for transformation and where parts go. Although I'm sure you'll do more of what like highmoon studios does with a quick mash of parts in a few short frames and walah got a truck!

    Hm, I guess i was hoping for a little more out of the head robot figure, like balljointed shoulders and hips at least. It's possible since I do have a chrome dome head from a TFW member who designed it off of Shapeway and it's fairly practical. No meter gauge either, that's kind of sad. Overall, the figure is nice, they're starting to look just a bit less boxy and angular and more rounded. glad they're not doing a hard head figure, this'll be a nice complement to my Head robots Hardhead figure.

    lol, I for one can't wait, I'm thinking of purchasing a flight pose stand too for it when I get a chance this week. Hopefully it wont do anything to the underbelly like it has for others, unless that problem has been addressed a long time ago. STILL, this'll be awesome and kind of make me wanna say "Okay I'm done with Macross collecting"
