Valkyrie Magnus Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Any further word on this, Exo? The Daed and Prometheus would be awesome to have. Even as stand alone pieces. I agree! This one of the most anticipated projects of 2013 for me. Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 I actually just ordered some parts I had to redo. I was messing with the first ones and realized the arm hits the bottom of the deck when you rotate it. Just got them from Shapeways. I think I might have to reorder the whole lower deck again... aaargh! Money awasting! Sorry to hear that =( Is there anything that can be done to give it enough clearance? Perhaps a small extension piece long enough to allow deck clearance for just attaching it to the SDF-1 or would that look too long then? If that would work, then you wouldn't need to redesign and reorder the lower deck piece again. Quote
EXO Posted January 19, 2013 Author Posted January 19, 2013 I thought about a piece that extended and then recessed again. But that would mean I would have to order WSF pieces from shapeways for each one. I ended up getting an extended piece. But I still need to re-order the lower deck to make it aesthetically pleasing. Or else it look like a photoshop whre I took one end and extended it. lol. The design looks good. I just need some funds to come in. I just got the final pieces for my saddle bags and side covers. As soon as I clear that project I'll have the crew guys sets that'll hopefully fund this one... lol. There really is no money in these things. This project funds the next and so on. Quote

EXO Posted June 1, 2013 Author Posted June 1, 2013 Holy Cow... just saw your post Charger... Most likely after MWCon. Got a lot of stuff planned and so does the recaster... it's all just waiting to be printed. Quote
EXO Posted June 11, 2013 Author Posted June 11, 2013 The next update could be you printing it for me... lol. Quote
Spleen Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Registered just to comment on your solidworks model - wow! I've been learning it for a month or so now, and couldn't even approach that. I don't even know how to get those shape handles like that!If you are anywhere near Seattle I'll trade 3D prints for solidworks advice. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 Soooo EXO, how's this coming along? I don't have a Yammie SDF-1 but I want this! Quote
Major Tom Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Come on EXO, give the people what they want Quote
shaggy Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 Just was wondering if you had any progress with this yet? Quote
EXO Posted April 30, 2014 Author Posted April 30, 2014 These will be printing out around May so the kits will be out June for the Prometheus and July for the Daedalus! Quote
jvmacross Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 Will they be casted in separate colors or will painting be required? Do you have an idea of cost? Painting service available if required? Good to here these are finally coming out....does that mean Macross V 2.0 figures are coming soon? Quote
EXO Posted April 30, 2014 Author Posted April 30, 2014 I still have plans on releasing them casted on color. Depends on my recaster. V.2 figures are definitely coming out also. It's good that we waited because they'll be better now that I've learned how to model clothing better. I probably will offer painting services. If you guys want to be on a mailing list for these things, send me a PM or visit my FB page. https://www.facebook.com/PlasticCretins and give it a like for updates. I'm hoping to keep it a $100 each ship, depending on how much to print and recaster's fee. Quote
jvmacross Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 These are still setup to attach to the Yamato SDF-1 correct? Quote
CoreyD Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 Oh y I still have plans on releasing them casted on color. Depends on my recaster. V.2 figures are definitely coming out also.

EXO Posted April 30, 2014 Author Posted April 30, 2014 I thought it'd be a good place to put it up without having to pay for web space. Quote
MacrossJunkie Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 This is great news. Glad to see it's still coming. Quote
EXO Posted May 8, 2014 Author Posted May 8, 2014 I guess I'll start a mailing list for everyone sending me messages about updates and release date. You can PM me your email address so I can keep tabs of who's interested. If you want put down scales that you prefer so I can categorize for future emails also. Thanks! Quote
charger69 Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 1/3000 for sure, no real interest in other scales. Quote
EXO Posted May 8, 2014 Author Posted May 8, 2014 These will be 1/3000 for sure. I meant I'm starting a mailing list for all the projects I'm doing. Got you down! Thanks! Quote
EXO Posted September 6, 2015 Author Posted September 6, 2015 Going to slowly turn this one into the 1/4000 TV SDF-1 thread... Quote
jvmacross Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 I'll still remember what it really was! Quote
EXO Posted September 6, 2015 Author Posted September 6, 2015 I'll still remember what it really was! I'm still doing that.... if I want it for myself, it'll get done! But I'm cancelling the Prometheus and the Daedalus for the 1/3000 Yamato... Quote
EXO Posted September 6, 2015 Author Posted September 6, 2015 I know... sad that the connection wouldn't work. It would have been fun to switch those ships up... FYI, I'm still making a 1/3000 SDF-1 but I think designing it to be fully transformable will take up some time. Could take a year before completion. Quote
MechTech Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 Glad to see the TV model will get some help! - MT Quote
joscasle Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 Glad to see the TV model will get some help! - MT Great news Exo!!! Quote
Thom Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Are the 1/3000 AMRD and Oberths still in the works? Having more of those would make a nice escorting fleet for the Hase-SDF-1s. Quote
Jefuemon Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) FYI, I'm still making a 1/3000 SDF-1 but I think designing it to be fully transformable will take up some time. Could take a year before completion. Well, with the disappointing Hasegawa version, and John's retirement announcement: edited to put in the link. Edited September 19, 2015 by Jefuemon Quote
EXO Posted September 19, 2015 Author Posted September 19, 2015 What? That's awful news! We need everyone we can use. Plus I'll miss the build ups. Quote
