What about Prototype PLAN303E Deep Striker color scheme? Light and dark grey, red around shoulder and head section and little yellow details. Okay, this one has a heavy loadout, but imho the color scheme would also suit the T'au Coldstar

Looks neat and since the fusion blades are the Farsight relic the red is thematic... I'll save the image, be nice if there was a picture of just the mech outside of the booster armour.

A bit more work on the vf-4

Those of you following the World Championships of Decaling no doubt heard about this.  But for the uninitiated, I just set a world record for number of decals applied to a 1/100 scale aerospace fighter. ;)

Next is washes and glazes and some filters before a bit of weathering.  Comments and criticisms welcome.

Good looking VF-4 and hand model there! 

 

I finally got around to ordering my WeCheer mini grinder tool thing and some diamond cutting wheels this morning so I can continue work on my CatzEye Lecon Pwane.  Work has been killing me for the last month, haven't event touched the model desk.. :(

 

however... today I've managed to clean up the model room / desk and just getting back to a basics, hand brush painting a little project that has been languishing for far to long..

Needs touch ups, a few more decals, sealer coat, weathering and the refitting the engines and canopy. I missed the seams under the nacelle guns too

I'll post up the images of the 3 guys I have like that. That one with the ring binder SOP folder, another with a clipboard and the last leaning forward with a finger out depressing a button on the MFD. All sitting in the seat. 

They are taken from actual 3d scans of real deck crew members by the guy from REEDOAK.

Which decals did you get for the blue langley stripe? I also need a red langley stripe if you know which fighter has them (For a Focker, Max, Hikaru Ranger Team I am working on).

Edit: Actually I have some blue-ish Langley stripes from the F-14A Tomcat. But I can't find red ones.

The death rattlers have a red diamond stripe

Near as I can tell... there is no red/black stripe on any hornet, super hornet or tomcat.

that's not the paint... that's the unreal resolution in the printing of these things

After testing a lot of magnets I think I found it 

also the resin copies fit without problems 

the next step is the 3D design of the missile pods

Since the leg armor is a recast, you should just drill, screw and glue the missile boxes. 

Are you making opening latches?

Back to my little lady of pain. Maybe the third time is the charm. That's french purple and lilac, concepts I was previously unaware of...

A little madness in detailing on the WAVE VF4... air wing maintanence petty officer flicking through the Preflight Checks after a hard night in the hangar. Managed to get some convincing writing into the pages of the SOP folder.

Damn, even the seat looks like it's a much bigger scale, not speaking of those manual pages :blink:. That's some awesome job especially as this is 1/72 scale!  Could you please stop it? You make me thinking about building 1/72 Macross kits as well. That is not good for my wallet :angry::lol:
