I couldn't wait to get this thing on the wall. I'll tell how a little later.

Awesome mount.

Excellent weathering.

Here is a shot of it all

[Mechafan]

I like that. Good job.

[eugimon]

oooh, nice job! you gotta show us how you did that

[BoBe-Patt]

that's pretty cool, but wasn't it sideways, not upside down?

Let me guess...you're into HEAVY METAL!!!

[ikhii]

the first word came out to my mouth was. "Wow"...hahahha , will try that and find a nice corner to fit in my macross

[LORD KUNGFU]

uh, hello! hello! ever hear of screws. I kid, I kid. Looks nice.

You framed up the VF-1S Hikkie box.

Cool setup. If you did a jamming session at full power, it looks like all your mecha will collapse.

[Veritas]

That is a neat little idea, if i had the room to do it, i'd try doing that myself. Nice job. BTW what made you decide to display it like that in the first place?

[Mowe]

That is just so clever, well done!!!

[promethuem5]

Perfect Dave... came out awesome, and fast... Did you end up doing the coat hanger wire trick, or something else?

[halfan]

That made me think of the way the VFs are launched from the Macross. I wonder if a diorama of a section of the SDF-1 has been made (claw, lights, antennae, the works) showing the VF launching into space?

[Skullsixx]

Pretty frakin' cool!!!

[connor99]

Looks excellent! and on a sidenote, I think you made a good decision on having to put the valk upside down, instead of on it's side, 'coz that would have put too much stress on the backpack . Nice work!

[port]

The reason it's up side down is because Hikaru Valk came out that way in the last battle in DYRL. I could also easly put it on an angle and be nice an stable if I wanted. I may do that that if I get another stand.

[Fly4victory]

Great Job!

Is the Valk held by the friction of the claws on the launch arm? Or is it unseen anime magic?

[Fortress_Maximus]

Excellent job! Curious, do you plan on adding more 1/48s and creating a squad or even recreating specific scenes? Nice room layout, very organized!

[Solscud007]

man you tore the flap off the box just to frame it?

I took a piece of wire and hooked around the fast pack and thought the opening on support piece in the center of the Launch Arm. I gluded the arms in place.

Yeah, I don't buy for investment. I'll probably cut up another box. I'm silwy like that

[promethuem5]

You glued the arms in place? White glue, or real glue!??

Thanks for the secret. I tried tighting the screws and they only increase the tension a little and not very stable when inverted. Will use quick set epoxy inside the joint and then reassemble before it dries.

The framed box top is great. It is also a perfect way to save your Hasegawa top's as art.
