Tage Posted April 6, 2016 Posted April 6, 2016 Wow yeah this is really coming along! Awesome work! Quote
MechTech Posted April 6, 2016 Posted April 6, 2016 AWESOME work Andrea! The colors and paint look great. I can hardly wait to see it done! - MT Quote
Andrea Posted April 29, 2016 Author Posted April 29, 2016 Thank you again for your enthusiasm! I’m working now with the oil colors for the weathering. Please, stay tuned! Quote
pengbuzz Posted May 23, 2016 Posted May 23, 2016 Wow! Some really impressive work here Andrea! I'm definitely going to be interested in seeing the next progress pic! Quote
Andrea Posted July 4, 2016 Author Posted July 4, 2016 Dear friends, I have completed another important step of my VF-1 works: the weathering with oil colors. As usual, I used the oil colors in order to accentuate each particular of the model. The oil colors must be used well diluted and applied only where is necessary. Thanks to the previous clear coating, an excess of color can be easily deleted using a clean brush wet of thinner. As usual, you can find more information and pictures on my Blog at the following link: https://nonsolopanzer.com/2016/07/04/vf-1j-s-fast-pack-config-ver-1-1-w-st-aggiornamento-4-luglio-2016/ At last, the end of this model is not very far now!

VF-1A Grunt Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 (edited) Uh... wow! The weathering / panel lining and decals look incredible! You're obviously getting close to final assembly! Your pterosaur head is awesome too! Edited July 4, 2016 by VF-1A Grunt Quote
spanner Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 love the Regult kill score markings! looks great! Quote
Andrea Posted July 5, 2016 Author Posted July 5, 2016 Let me say thanks so much to everybody! I’m doing my best in order to finish this model as soon as possible. I hope to show you it within few days. Of course I’m talking about the VF-1 only. I’m going also to do a little diorama but for that I will need another month at least. Grunt, thank you very much for visiting my blog! Yes, the pterosaurus head was a very hard work that I loved to do. J Quote
VF-1A Grunt Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 They look like the Regult kill markings that come in the decal set with the Studio Forge pilots (which I believe you have en route to you!): http://www.starshipmodeler.com/mecha/jl_macross_pilots_1514.jpg Quote
NZEOD Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 They look like the Regult kill markings that come in the decal set with the Studio Forge pilots (which I believe you have en route to you!): http://www.starshipmodeler.com/mecha/jl_macross_pilots_1514.jpg Not enroute... inhand! Thats what I was wondering, if they were the same ones Quote
Andrea Posted July 6, 2016 Author Posted July 6, 2016 I confirm that the Regult kill markings come from the decal sheet included in the Studio Forge pilots set. Quote
Andrea Posted July 22, 2016 Author Posted July 22, 2016 Dear friends, after a too long waiting from your part, I finished my model of VF-1 fighter. After two years of works, I can say to be very proud of the results. I like very much this kit, its colors and its details. In this model, I make my best and I hope you like it too. Obviously, any comment is much appreciated and, for your information, I’m now making a little diorama for this VF-1. As usual, you can find more information and pictures on my Blog at the following link: https://nonsolopanzer.com/2016/07/22/vf-1j-s-fast-pack-config-ver-1-1-w-st-aggiornamento-22-luglio-2016/ Many thanks!

VF-1A Grunt Posted July 22, 2016 Posted July 22, 2016 That looks fantastic! The paint and weathering looks perfect, and the wing-mounted booster look great (and it appears to have worked out just right so they're not touch the ground). The only suggestion I would have is to add some addtional "REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT" tags to the reaction missiles since you have some forward on the fuselage. Congratulations on finish this incredible project! Quote
Thom Posted July 23, 2016 Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) That is such great stuff! Never saw that before, but I loved it at first sight! May have to try something like that. Even gave me an idea of adding super packs to my next ES-11D! Nice and thanks for showing! Although, do you have any pics of the rear? That must look incredible from the back! Edited July 23, 2016 by Thom Quote
Mintox Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 Love the colours on this Valk. Great work love it. Quote
Xigfrid Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 The colors didn't look gorgeous until the final assembly... and BAM the result is just amazing! Quote
Andrea Posted July 26, 2016 Author Posted July 26, 2016 Let me say thank you so much to everybody! I'm very happy to read your appreciations of my work. I hope you’ll like also the little diorama where I’ll place this VF-1. Thom, you can find some other pictures (from the rear too) in my blog. Grunt, I prefere not to modify the model at this stage. Thank you for your suggestion that I’ll apply in my future models. Thanks, thanks, thanks again! Quote
Andrea Posted November 21, 2016 Author Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) Dear friends, after more than two years of works, I finished my VF-1J “S-FAST PACK” model and the related diorama. I hope you like it and the final result is able to show my great passion for the “Macross” animated series. As usual, you can find more information and pictures on my Blog at the following link: https://nonsolopanzer.com/category/my-models/macross-variable-fighters/vf-1j-s-fast-pack-2016/ You can see the diorama construction here: https://nonsolopanzer.com/2016/11/19/vf-1j-s-fast-pack-config-ver-1-1-w-st-aggiornamento-19-novembre-2016/ Let me say thank you to everyone who have followed me until now.
