Goodman Models Posted February 6 Posted February 6 I’ve been working on this vintage kit for a while. I’ve done some mods to the cockpit, intakes, thrusters, feet treads, gunpod. It will be done up in UN Spacey livery. Quote
jenius Posted February 6 Posted February 6 Which UN Spacy livery? Got a pic of your inspiration? Quote
505thAirborne Posted February 6 Posted February 6 @Goodman Models The kit & cockpit are looking good, I've always been a huge fan of the Legioss! On a side note, does anyone else here wish that Hasegawa or WAVE made a 1/72 or even better a 1/48 scale Legioss & Tread model kit? Quote
Bolt Posted February 7 Posted February 7 It's looking really good. I'm also looking forward to the paint scheme. Quote

There will be something done the road. I’ve had this kit forever, so it’s getting done but I’d like to work on a larger scale myself! Quote
Goodman Models Posted February 7 Author Posted February 7 I’m thinking now about a modern Japanese gray on gray navy scheme with the UN Spacey kite. I’m still flipping through the reference material though Quote
MechTech Posted February 7 Posted February 7 It's cool to see a classic getting some love! Your paint scheme sounds cool too. This was one of those cool deals I got back in the 80's. We found an old comic book shop that had a TON of Macross and Mospeada kits up in there loft collecting dust. They marked them down to sell so I was a able to snag a couple of each mode. 👍 - MT Quote

Goodman Models Posted February 11 Author Posted February 11 Some cockpit details and added wingtip lights. Quote
Thom Posted February 14 Posted February 14 Don't normally compliment on masking, but that's pretty neat work. Quote

Goodman Models Posted February 15 Author Posted February 15 Some camo applied, reminiscent of the F-15j Quote

Goodman Models Posted February 16 Author Posted February 16 (edited) Canopy - I have stopped using future and I’m on to this polishing method with the 3 grades of Tamiya polish. Edited February 16 by Goodman Models Quote
Goodman Models Posted February 20 Author Posted February 20 Closer on the painting completion and arresting hook added. Quote
Goodman Models Posted February 21 Author Posted February 21 I added the touch up paint often found on navy planes. Quote
Thom Posted March 4 Posted March 4 With it oriented like that, well scrolling down it's like it is launching up into the sky! Quote
VertexNebula Posted March 4 Posted March 4 A Legioss with UNS markings is awesome! I'm really looking forward to seeing finished pics! Awesome build Quote
Goodman Models Posted March 12 Author Posted March 12 Ahh some decal disaster….whatchagonnado. Finished the arresting hook. Redoing some of the decals. Quote
