Kremmen Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 (edited) Awesome set of viper here. Kremmen, I'm really eager to see more of your WIP in a near futur. Good luck with this. Thanks Cain. Big storms here the last couple of nights so I stayed away from the shed, but I got a little done tonight. Hope to finish up the fuselage plug rough shaping tomorrow and post a couple of pics. I love your avatar! Is that the FX model or the Argonauts kit? Or CG? PetarB your MkVII is damned nice too. I'm just in awe of you guys, I can't do a decent small-scale paint job to save my life. Neptunesurvey, your Phalanx is dead sexy. I have the old IP 1/72 IP kits of the others, but must get a Moscato Phalanx some time soon...

MechTech Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 The vipers look great (though I don't watch the show). The destroids look great all together and in better lighting Neptunesurvey. - MT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWR MKII Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 This is not a viper but it is the last of the Moscata Destroid line. Enjoy. Your missing one And i STILL have the only Daicon girl Phalanx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kremmen Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Ayup, Robocop II is kickarse bit of design! Here's a pic or two of my Viper fuse roughed out in foam. The X-wing is a 1/24 SS job for scale comparison. I need to surface these bits then mould them up, so that's all from me for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetarB Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Looking good. That heavy viper in the background though... would look even better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is another one I just finished and for those Stargate fans I hope you enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AcroRay Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 (edited) Built another one of those knockoff 1/170 "Super Space-Time Models" this weekend - the Battroid VF-1S: There's no Jolly Roger on him because there wasn't one included in the stickers. I decided to just leave it as-is, since this is supposed to be part of my Valkyrie knockoff collection anyway. They're so cheap, molded in their base color, and have paper decals, that they make for a couple of hours of guiltless old-school 1980s Macross model building fun! No puttying, sanding or primer-coating - nope. A couple of colors of paint (mostly water-washup types), followed by a quick touch up with grey & black Gundam panel line markers, and a sharp X-acto knife to cut out genuine sticky paper decals - and this is the result! Seriously, since they're the size of a gaming miniature and because they look positively prehistoric compared to modern stuff, there's really only so much you have to do to make them look as nice as they're going to get! I remember trying to build these little b4st4rds "back in the day", and trying to get a decent coat of white over that weird greenish white plastic Arii always cast them in. I even have my old factory module to put them in! Here in vintage 1/170 Armored Factory: VF-1A knockoff kit in the same Factory: A couple of fun hours reliving my childhood with these guys. I've got a fighter & a GERWALK on the way. Edited July 23, 2008 by AcroRay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ron5864 Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Here is something I am still working on. It is the 1/5000 Macross SDF-1 TV version from a Robotech kit made by IMAI. The Daedalus and Prometheus are not attached. This is more or less the configuration seen sitting on Ataria Island before it was launched. I will add these and more into the photo gallery.

AcroRay Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Crosspost from my other thread: Spent a couple of hours this past weekend building another of those knockoff Super Space-Time Models 1/170 kits. The project was the Gerwalk VF-1J! Molded in gray, cut-them-yerself paper stickers, snap-tite construction! Hanging with knockoff Sempai, old-school heroes!
