thereal9thdoctor Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Hey all. I just recieved the long awaited Macross Factory 1/100 kit! I am going to use a mix of kit mecha and same scale toys to create a diorama of Hikaru and Roy capturing a Zentradi and pulling the injured pilot out of a Glaug. I also am planning to light the kit as it looks very easy to make that happen. However, there is one thing that needs fixing right off the bat... the railings are terrible. I am cutting them off and want to replace them. So does anybody here know a good(and cheap) source of 1/100 railings? Or how to scratchbuild them?(would prefer to buy them but would scratchbuild if no other choice) Thanks much for any replies! Quote
ahiachris Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 Try "PLASTRUCT" they have all sorts of railings in different scales. Model train shops usually to sell them. Quote
Chas Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 Aber makes some 1:100 photo-etch generic ship railings. http://freetimehobbies.com/1-100-aber-ship-railings/ Quote
thereal9thdoctor Posted October 17, 2015 Author Posted October 17, 2015 Funny, I just happened to come across some of those earlier today on Amazon and Ebay. Must try em. Thanks! Quote
thereal9thdoctor Posted October 18, 2015 Author Posted October 18, 2015 So now I have another, related question... Anyone know of any sets of 1/100 vf-1decals available without a kit? I am using the Hi metal R Armored VF-1J and possibly the hi metal VF-1S(unless they do an R version) with this and wanna give em a full set of markings. So far all I have found are 1/72 decal sets. If I have to I will buy the Wave kits for the decals as they tend to be decently priced on Amazon, (may even just use the wave VF-1S) but that is a last resort. Any suggestions are appreciated. 😊 Quote
AcroRay Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 (edited) I have an unused Arii VF-1 Battroid decal sheet in my scrap bin if you want it, thereal9thdoctor, along with some other odd extras. Just message me and I'll see what I can do for you. Edited October 19, 2015 by AcroRay Quote
