shinagami Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Hi all, this is my first WIP since 2011...been busy with kids and all...and am still busy + this is a 5 in 1 WIP thus this will be kinda slow progress (i mean very slow) with very brief write-up... Bought these few years back... 1/72 hasegawa VF-0A/S with Ghost 1/72 hasegawa VF-0B 1/72 hasegawa VF-0C 1/72 hasegawa VF-0D 1/72 hasegawa VF-0S painted all the pilots... Quote
mickyg Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Can't wait to see this (these) come together. Love your work and it's been a long time since we've seen any of it! Quote
batcode Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 nice collections will be watching this as got few those same kits, and you got a couple of the ones im after lol. nice job on the pilots Quote
vsim Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Man, I didn't even know they made a 0C. Can't wait to see some pictures! Quote
505thAirborne Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 The Pilots look fantastic so you're off to a great start!! Take your time and enjoy the ride, especially that VF-0C, definitely a rare & pricey kit. Quote
shinagami Posted September 21, 2014 Author Posted September 21, 2014 thanks for the nice words, a little update on the progress... built the legs for the vf-0c last night, and while checking the parts for the vf-0b, there's an extra fast packs which is not needed for the vf-0b (since the vf-0b is an experimenting/ test type jet, while the 0c is a fighter jet, i want the 0c to look more aggressive with the fast packs on it...) i'm customizing the fast packs for the vf-0c... the 0c legs + 0b fast pack the fast packs did not fit to the 0c legs...need to cut the fast packs to fit on the leg area to cut is marked in red... test fitting of the fast packs fast packs fitted to the legs...

mickyg Posted September 21, 2014 Posted September 21, 2014 (edited) Great idea! We never saw the delta wing variant with fast packs. That will certainly make it look more beefed up and menacing. Edited September 21, 2014 by mickyg Quote
505thAirborne Posted September 21, 2014 Posted September 21, 2014 This kind of gives you an idea of what the VF-0D/C would look like with a Ghost on top. Though unlike shinagami, my rear-stabilizers are not properly modified for a secure fit. To bad Hasegawa never made spare weapons sets for the VF-0 kits! Quote
modelglue Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Very cool wip. I have similar intentions with my kits. Will you be painting them all as part of the same squadron? Quote
ivorysniper Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 Keep on going, Shinagami !. I wish I could have been lucky enough to get the -0C, -0B and -0A/F with Ghost kits when they came out. Now I'm on the move to have the -0B and -0C kitbashed from the regular editions still in production. I'll keep a close eye to your WIP. Quote
spanner Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 might have to get some model kits.. would love to get back into model building! Quote
