matthiastyr Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 Wow! Your model kits look awesome, Jasmine Model! I'm going to have to order one when I'm not so tight on funds. Quote
VF-19 Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 Any chance you could post up a copy of the instructions for me to review (and to go nuts over) while I wait for the kit to arrive? Quote

derex3592 Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 No.....just no...not ever in my life would I attempt that. I would end up in a mental hospital. Quote

jasminemodel Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 What tools do you recommend? Is there a build service possible? Hi, You can use design knife to cut off parts from the PE sheet, and use tweezer to bending and assembing parts. Actually, most parts can be bending by fingers. It is not as hard as you think. And we can't offer building service, because it is very difficult to shipping a completed PE model... No.....just no...not ever in my life would I attempt that. I would end up in a mental hospital. You are right, my office is placed in mental hospital already. Quote
VF-19 Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 I've been practicing using models from Metal Earth. Small, and along the same lines of complexity. I only use a knife, tweezers, and some pliers to build them. Looking at Jasmine's VF-1, it shouldn't be too hard, as there aren't many complex bends in the kit. These are some great instructions and will go a long way towards making this a easy build! Quote

Maybe you could be the first on MW to put it together....would love to see a step by step of this build...like others have done for regular kits... Quote
VF-19 Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Might just do that. The kit should arrive sometime in the next week at the earliest. I've always been impressed at how fast stuff gets to my door from overseas... And surprised at how slow it is to get something from the west coast (particularly California, for some reason). Quote
derex3592 Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 Maybe you could be the first on MW to put it together....would love to see a step by step of this build...like others have done for regular kits... Dooooooo it........................... Quote
VF-19 Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Dooooooo it........................... I would, but I need the model first! Hurry up CanadaPost! Quote
VF-19 Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 head ache instructions. But doable They're better than Metal Earth's instructions. Seriously, pictures of how it's supposed to look after you're done that particular step is extremely helpful. Also, coming home to an empty mailbox made me sad, and a little happy. No model in the mail, but no bills either! Hurry up CanadaPost! I don't have infinite paitence! Quote
VF-19 Posted July 18, 2014 Posted July 18, 2014 It's here, and upon first impressions... WOW. And man, the metal is THIN. It's thinner than the kits from Metal Earth. A fair bit of patience will be needed. Quote
coronadlux Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 When will you begin? I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on it. Quote
VF-19 Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 When will you begin? I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on it. Already started: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=41407 I'm probably going to do a bit tonight. Quote
