EXO Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 I decided that I wanted my Max TV-1A to be closer to lineart so I busted up on of my Yamato 1A head. The white is going to be clear green resin. Quote
Hurin Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 (edited) Nice job Exo! Any step-by-step posts coming? Did you shave down the border on the visor? or are you just attaching that green visor (now white) over the old border? It looks great! H Edited April 12, 2005 by Hurin Quote
zeo-mare Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 you know what i would love to see you do for the eye, something similar to the g-system kits, it is very easy to do all you need is to put a mechanical detail behind clear peice, when i get around to doing my 1/48 custom i am going to try that. here is a pic of my Geara Doga gun Quote
UN Spacy Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Very nice work EXO. I'm surpised it looks that good. Quote
Godzilla Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 So when you got start selling recasts, Exo? Quote
EXO Posted April 13, 2005 Author Posted April 13, 2005 A few more clean ups and I'm ready. As far as detail in the visor, I thought about it, but since I want my valks to match I would have to redo all the heads to have detail. It's like if I weather one, I'm gonna have to weather them all... Quote
tom64ss Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 Nice job! I was hoping someone would do these. Quote
do not disturb Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 damn, now i gotta make a TV max just to rock this head. Quote
Godzilla Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 I cant wait for the TV heads, though I like the DYRL heads for some reason or another. Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 Exo, So simple, yet so beautiful. Will you be removing the seem line on the center of the head? Quote
EXO Posted April 13, 2005 Author Posted April 13, 2005 no, the head will be available so it can be taken apart, so it can be easily painted. AS for me I'm not gonna worry about it. I'ts not as obtrusive as the 1S seam line. Quote
Wheels Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 The seam line actually dosen't really bother me. Nice work EXO, can't wait to see it finshed. Quote
mechatek Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 Looks great >EXO<. This also makes me wanna try for a custom TV Max. But my modeling skills are a bit rusty. Quote
kanata67 Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 here's a takatoku tv max... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...5969322070&rd=1 Looks ok but I wouldn't spend that much. Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 was bored and remembered >EXO< modded up a 1A head so it's TV style... I was just curious on the status of it....It'd be cool to see it painted up and all Quote
hirohawa Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 I want one also! was bored and remembered >EXO< modded up a 1A head so it's TV style... I was just curious on the status of it....It'd be cool to see it painted up and all 312753[/snapback] Quote

I was just curious on the status of it....It'd be cool to see it painted up and all 312753[/snapback] 312781[/snapback] I'm actually done with it ever since I posted that pic at the top of the thread. I've painted my Max 1A, but I have to repaint some parts and I forgot to give Rohby the parts that you don't see in those pics (the antenna, neck and those two round thingies on the side. ) Now Rohby is in the middle of some huge project... you all know which one... oh yeah... there's a huge gap underneath the head... i'll take pics later. Man... it's way too hot here in L.A. to work on anything. My hobby room is freaking boiling. Edited July 21, 2005 by >EXO< Quote

BoBe-Patt Posted July 21, 2005 Posted July 21, 2005 man, are you sure your gonna finish this project? You still haven't finished the 1/6 hikaru yet and the helmet, and all the other projects as well.

Sundown Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 (edited) Any updates on this here? Would love a recast for a TV-1A Custom of my own. =D EDIT: Should have read the thread before I posted. What's Rohby's status on recasting these? -Al Edited October 5, 2005 by Sundown Quote
EXO Posted October 6, 2005 Author Posted October 6, 2005 Rohby got too busy with other projects, he just recently handed it back to me and is now going to another recaster. Should be out soon. Quote
