Just be mindful of the time difference. You wouldn't want to appear in a store like that after midnight and the alarms go off! Quote

With a transporter, you just get your stuff and leave the cash on the counter. just made me think that the transporter tech is probably gonna lead to a lot of theft. And the anti burglary systems would be absolutely horrific by scrambling the particles in an anti transporter field leaving you as a mess of meat and goo out in the back alley Quote

Yeah, but the pattern buffer tank costs way too much and they’d go out of budget, so the scrambler works better for small business. They just go out back with a hose and all’s good Quote

MechTech Posted April 30 Posted April 30 (edited) Sorry guys, I've been busy lately with not much time to get on the boards. @Urashiman You've got some great valks and I'm glad to see the builds with your son! @SteveTheFish Like Urashiman, you're pretty prolific with your builds! It's great to see Macross getting some love! Thanks for sharing the Quadluun box photo too! Sorry about the Chromebook! Especially since so many parents are ticked off about the way Goggle collects, or really spies on user's data. @electric indigo Your build looks great! SMOOTH finish as usual too! @pengbuzz She looks AWESOME! I love the magnetic pieces to arm her or not. Lots of hard work to make a specially rare and COOL bird! - MT Edited April 30 by MechTech Quote
wm cheng Posted April 30 Posted April 30 @electric indigo Love all that intricate masking, so much patience is clearly evident, and my personal favourite grey and orange paint scheme! Quote
electric indigo Posted April 30 Posted April 30 @wm cheng The paint scheme was 50% of why I got the kit in the first place 😄 I could drool over those mechanical details all day long. Quote

The different shades of gray and white and the odd orange bits that make it pop out. It could easily have been muddy, but it came it really great Quote
MechTech Posted May 3 Posted May 3 Thought this was funny! Check out the last name and call sign. Also some good closeups of a "Rhino" in flight. Check out the weathering on the nose too!- MT Quote

electric indigo Posted May 10 Posted May 10 @joscasle Those Aggressor F-15s are pure masking madness, great work! Quote
joscasle Posted May 11 Posted May 11 (edited) @electric indigo Thanks, indeed they are. And stencils everywhere, more than 500 decals need to be apply 🤪 @MechTech Thanks @Thom Thanks Edited May 11 by joscasle Quote
