Suggestions on what small parts you need for replacement

[IScustom]

Dear All,

I am thinking about using Shapeways to provide some small parts that our macross fans need for replacement. VF5SS has done a very nice work for the 1/60 ver2 shoulder. What I intend to do now include:

1) 1/48 BP8 piece,

Update: BP8 is complete. Two units for sale. I am now printing one for testing and will show the results pretty soon.

2) 1/60 VF-0 shoulder hinge

3) 1/60 VF-0 leg hinge

But I would like to have feedbacks from you guys on the necessity and what else parts can be included in the list.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your suggestion. The spike on my vf-0 is super tight, I cannot take it out so cannot CAD it.

The vf-0 antennas (three sets in a btach), in both vf-0s white and vf-0a grey, is available at Shapeways.

Here is the link and picture.

How about somthing like these hands.

I bought a pair thinking they were fine for the 1/60 models but they are too big, Made for the 1/72 1/60 Gandam models which I asuume are bigger. However, they are great! Very possable and good quiality.

Just saying..

The other would be making a 2 seater or 1 seater like the ones here for 1/60 versions

Many thanks for your suggestions. Regarding the hands, EXO actually do an awesome work and you may refer to his custom thread, should be also in this subforum.

For the 2 seater, I am doing it now for 1/48, will release it soon.

BTW, BP8 is complete. Now waiting for the testing piece

IS can you rotate/slant that vernier so that the center bar matches the original BP8? Otherwise, slammin' as usual!

Sorry to dig this thread, but I am looking for the BP8 piece. Could you share the link to shapeways?
