Needed a quick break from 1/72 airplanes, so I spent today on the 1/500 Yamato, man this kit is just massive! I love it. Two tiny drops of Tamiya quick setting cement so far to this point. No putty. Bandai was on their game back then!

I've had this done for a while now, but I didn't get around to taking proper photos of it until recently. This is Arii's 1:100 scale Regult Recon Pod with some aftermarket customization parts. Namely Wave's H-Eyes lens parts to replace the molded detail I filed off.

Here is a photoset of the kit with a description of the build:

That’s a really good build of that ancient kit

Well, I saw this pic in the "Hey look at this really cool model build I just saw" thread:

It inspired me to redo my version of it (Imai):

All I really did was change the color from chocolate brown to my attempt at their lighter tan (mine still went a bit darker though. Go figure).

Next up: I have a 3/34 GI Joe figure coming in the mail; I finally found a basis to start my next "Matchbox" RT Figure: Kakizaki!!!

 

Stay tuned...
