valid Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) hi guys.. i'm kinda newbie in the model kits section.. i wanted to buy a ground crew set for a simple diorama for my 1:60 yamato.. and i was wondering from your point of view.. which is better a 1:48 scale or 1:72 scale that look more natural to stand next to my 1:60 vf 1.. i know they are not in scale.. but from your point of view which one better? thanks Edited November 30, 2011 by valid Quote
derex3592 Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 1:72 is closer in my opinion....I used 1:72 scale decals on a 1:60 Ver.2 Valk and they look 99% the same as the Yamato 1:60 stickers. Only much, much cleaner. Quote
EXO Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 The ones that come with the 1/60 Destroids are 1/72 scale I thnk. They're not 1/60. But if you can wait tundrayeti and I are in talks about making a ground crew set for his 1/60 maintenance vehicles. It wont be done until 2nd quarter next year but we've been planning and figuring out the best way to go about it for a while now. And they'll be specifically Macross crew personnels. Quote

I thought he was only doing the ground crew vehicles in either 1/72 or 1/48. If that was the case, I would've bought some 1/60 scale vehicles. Edited November 30, 2011 by Jasonc Quote

I was gonna say something Exo, but I didn't wanna put you on the spot. And Valid, if you want diorama stuff check out some of my posts, I'm doing a 1/60 hangar for one of the members here. Check it out! Edited November 30, 2011 by tundrayeti Quote

tundrayeti Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 No problem, just send me a PM. I came up with a lot of my stuff out of frustration. I couldn't find what I wanted readily available so I decided to make stuff that I would want and other people too. I do a lot of custom work that is really reasonable. So drop me a line and I'll let you know what can be done. Quote
