OK, I couldn't help myself, just saw this on MW main page for FB but don't see anything about this in the forums.

WHO is this awesomely crazy person that built this and where can we track him down? Is he part of MW? Can we get him to post some more info on this insane build, I don't think I have ever seen this much detail on a 1/72 valk!!!!! I honestly thought it was a 1/48 only to be even more amazed that it actually was 1/72.

Are there any other builds like this?!!! WM Cheng where have you been dude?

my computer did not like that link. Can you post the image here directly?

[EXO]

Vincent Pang actually reminded me that I had this set in my data banks... some guy on FB linked the builder's blog

You have to dig thru the FB photo stream to find more stuff like this... even William can attest to all the crazy stuff posted on there...

I really like that color scheme.

[miriya]

Holy crap! Amazing details!

[daBlah!]

The detail at that scale is fantastic!

[Knight26]

That is some serious depot level maintenance, I wonder how many photo-etch kits went into making all those little fiddly bits

[PetarB]

That is simply amazing work. Really quite amazing! I would love to see some higher resolution photos.

[Ignacio Ocamica]

Thanks for the pics!!! That VF-1D is amazing

[pfunk]

Saw it on the face book page, simply divine. Some high res pics would be sweet, right down to the grating on the platforms.

[Zinjo]

My money would be on a member of the "VF-1 Riders" model club if i were to hazard a guess.

They do some phenomenal work...

[joscasle]

WOW just WOW!!!

[mechaninac]

Speachless

[David Hingtgen]

I'm pretty sure there's an F-18 set in there. (F-14 likely sourced as well of course).

[Mechleader]

MY GOD!!

Great work!!

[ivorysniper]

Holly Mighty Macross God !!!!!!!. Unbelievable !!!!.

[ultimateone]

Absolutely stunning...

[Valkyrie2008]

This level of detail is insane! That person did use the F/A-18 style boarding ladder.

[Andrea]

What incredible, beautiful work!!

I'd like to make a model like that...!

Thanks for sharing!

[captain america]

Thanks for posting this Exo, this guy has mad skills... And patience!

*Bows before serious modeling talent.*

[fairchild22]

the detail is amazing, only when i am retired i might try and do something, but now time is taken up by way to many things.

[cool8or]

This kind of builds really inspired me: I really hope to make something like this, someday... At least, I have the kits!!

Edit: I just realize that the kit is in 1/72!! I always tought that it was in 1/48!

I think the builder's name is Mohirito Nakajima. There was another 1/48 diorama that looked similar to this.

[Reïvaj]

Amazing build!

[antibiotictab]

I'm pretty sure there's an F-18 set in there. (F-14 likely sourced as well of course).

Yes, he wrote he used some etching parts for the F/A-18 released by Fine Molds in the comment field.

[spanner]

[batcode]
