TER-OR Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 Hey guys. Long time no Macross builds... But here's a quick preview of my most recent finished project: a QF-11 conversion. I need to take better pictures and write the article, but I figured I'd give you a little preview here. Terry Quote
007-vf1 Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 That is so kick @ss..!! Although it must be the lighting; freaking nice red... Quote
miriya Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 Gorgeous!!! I cant wait to find out how you did that. And how I can get one! Quote
TER-OR Posted October 5, 2008 Author Posted October 5, 2008 That is so kick @ss..!! Although it must be the lighting; freaking nice red... That's pretty true to the model's color. I'm going for something more orange than the International Orange - based on mixtures of Gunze paints. It started out as a Club-M kit, with a homebrew mod. Quote
Noyhauser Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 I wouldn't mind seeing a build up, my next project is this same kit. Quote
big F Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 Cool, you now need to post some work in progress pictures and a complete and highly detailed how to guide Quote
yellowlightman Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 Really nice build, man. I don't think I've ever seen one of these done before as a model. Was there a conversion kit or did you do it from scratch? Quote
TER-OR Posted October 10, 2008 Author Posted October 10, 2008 Really nice build, man. I don't think I've ever seen one of these done before as a model. Was there a conversion kit or did you do it from scratch? I made the conversion myself. Essentially it's epoxy putty and a styrene tube, with an MV lens attached to a brass tube as the sensor inserted in the styrene tube after painting. To tide you over, here are some pictures during build/paint/mod phase. Plus one finished. Quote
