Jefuemon Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 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 Vf-4 Lightning VF-11 Super Thunderbolt 3 more to come, stay tuned! Quote
505thAirborne Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 That is awesome man! Love the launch Arms! Quote
cool8or Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Great job! Doesn't look like 1/144!! Quote
007-vf1 Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Some 1:144 goodness.. My new favorite scale.. Can't wait to see the rest of them.. Do you also have some of the battroids that came in the series? Quote

Do you also have some of the battroids that came in the series? 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. Quote
modelglue Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Cool, Jefuemon. Be nice to double the launch hangar dimensions to do a 1/72 version. Quote
spanner Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 they look fantastic Jefuemon! Nice work mate well done! Quote
MechTech Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 AWESOME Jefuemon! Looks like wait was worth it! - MT Quote
vt102 Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 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? Quote

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! Quote
arbit Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Good solution with the vertical launch arm to take the weight. Horizontal arms from DYRL often seem unwieldy. Gives me ideas... Quote
