Part 1 of my big building project is finished! From the old PS-1 video game "Macross Digital Mission VF-X" is the first 3 of the 6 fighters in the game. They're all 1/144 scale resin kits from Yellow Submarine. Each kit also comes with a Milky Doll figure, but I suck at doing figures, so keep an eye on the "For Sale" section in the next month or so.

VF-1X Plus Strike Valkyrie

Nope, all I have is the 6 fighter kits.

This is the second time I've built the VF-4. Long time ago, that was my first resin kit ever built. Gave it to a friend before I moved to Japan. Found the VF-1X at Mandarake, decided to go ahead and complete the set this time. Took about 4 years to get everything.

Awesome! Your VF-1 came out way better than mine. Question, how come you painted the canopy? You didn't wsnt to use the clear one?

Yep. On my 1/72 kits I've never been able to get the canopy cut properly. Wasn't even going to attempt in in 1/144!

Good solution with the vertical launch arm to take the weight.

Horizontal arms from DYRL often seem unwieldy.

Gives me ideas...
