  1. 16 so far including PM confirmations! Not bad at all considering the price-point and the fact that it's been a little over 4 days.
  2. My desire to sculpt is there, alI need is the orders.
  3. Keep the orders coming guys, spread the word!
  4. As I haven't posted here in some time, I have started an interest thread in a 1/72 Zentradi power suit project here: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=42217 If there are still any members hoping for more of my 1/72 models, this is your chance!
  5. Aaaand back to Macross! Maybe. So as I had stated in a previous thread, there were some outstanding Macross subjects still needing to be done, namely the Zentradi battle suits. I'm offering this subject as the next contender in the 1/72 series, which would have the following characteristics: - based on the TV series design -can be built with cockpit open or closed -in-scale with my previously-released Zentradi soldier, so will be quite a large kit (22.5-23cm tall!) Due to its size and the complexity of the sculpt, this would NOT be a cheap offering at 355.00 Canadian ($285 US approximately) but it would be... Glorious!!! As you have all put a $200 CAD deposit, there is the $155 CAD outstanding balance on the kits as well as the shipping fees which are as follows: $30.00 CAD up to 2 kits for USA/Canada $72.00 CAD for international shipping. Also very important: please add an extra 5% to the total to cover transaction fees if there are any. Generally PP will let you know before you send if there are fees and ask you if you will pay or make the recipient pay. I will commence casting on Monday once I test and group the molds for optimum casting.
  6. In so much as this project is tanking, I will start a 1/72 Nousjadeul Ger thread in the Workshop section for those who are interested.
  7. I will let this run until the 20th, hopefully we will hit the minimum requirement by then.
  8. Very good question, and the answer is yes: my intent was to scale-down the proportions of my 1/32 model. That also means that it will be a bigger kit than average since the cockpit was designed around a real human being and not a 4 foot tall anime character, so 22-23cm in stead of the 18.5-19cm of the old Imai kit. There will be no actual cockpit in the kit though, just to clarify.
  9. Hi guys! As promised, I am starting a thread to gauge interest in a 1/48 Mospeada Legioss soldier mode (hereinafter referred to as Buster: Henshin Robo) resin model to accompany the Crabb army which I made a little while ago. I would also make all three head variations: Blue, Green and Redd to allow for more versatility in the collection. Kit would be free-pose type (build it in the desired pose only) although certain joints will allow for minimal re-posing. Decals and markings: I will do the artwork, which I will then offer as open-source so that you can download and print as you see fit. This is going to be quite a bit more of an undertaking than most of my previous models, simply by virtue of its geometric complexity so you'd be looking at a $265 Canadian price-point (about $218 US) plus shipping. I would need a minimum of 30 orders to get the ball rolling so ask yourselves: is Buster right for YOU?
  10. Hi guys. I'll start a thread for the 1/48 Legioss on Monday in the usual manner to see if there's sufficient interest for a kit. Wouldn't be cheap though, very likely in the $200US price range. Stay tuned!
  11. N-Ger, Legioss, Macross, Q-Rau. All models I would like to make, in no particular order and if the demand is there.
  12. I was more partial to 1/3000 because it would at least be in scale with the Yamato film version and still be borderline manageable price-wise.
  13. They might, but I was thinking 1/3000 (40cm long), buildable in cruiser or Storm Attacker mode. Bigger and more detailed than what Hase could offer even if they decide to make it. This ship deserves a larger scale, IMHO.
  14. 1/48 Legioss seems to pop-up here and there as a suggestion. I also like the idea of a TV series Macross SDF-1 which, for such an iconic ship has never really been done properly.
  15. Hi guys! Save for one straggler, all kits have been shipped and the destructions are also done. Download as needed And so with this project complete, I turn my attention to the next sculpting project which is as yet undetermined. Mixed feedback for Legioss and Protector, so I'm opening up the floor.
  16. Thanks for the kind words. The glue from the hot glue gun is a f*!@# nightmare clusterfrack of frustration and mental anguish, but it's quick and can be removed without damaging the parts as needed. That's how I really feel
  17. Shipping starts tomorrow. In the meantime, a few dry-fit pictures. The parts are still roughly finished and held together with hot glue, but I think that the essence of the kit is well conveyed.
  18. This. Overpriced, oversized Kinder Egg toy if you ask me. I dream of the day Tamiya decides to overhaul its F-14A and produce a decent D model, although the Trumpeter kit is still respectably decent with the aftermarket resin intakes.
  19. Casting is almost done. I can feel it coming in the air tonight
  20. Thanks for the feedback guys. It's very true that there are a lot of Legioss offerings already out there (Aoshima, Toynami, CM) although to be fair, the 1/72 Wave kit is an abomination in my eyes. For a plastic model that doesn't even transform, the proportions are grotesque... They had ONE job, ONE! That being said, I may just give priority to the Protector but of course, you guys have the final word: I just count the votes.
  21. Hi guys. In the interest of at least rounding-out the MOSPEADA series, I was thinking about a 1/48 Legioss soldier or 1/10-12 Protector as the next project, and then possibly coming back to do a 1/72 N-Ger or Q-Rau if there's enough interest. For now, I have my hands full casting Baby Crabbs
  22. Hey guys! I wanted to take it upon myself to wish you all a preemptive happy new year, and leave you with some pictures of my progress on the Baby Crabbs!
  23. Molds are done and I will start casting after New Year's
