err... should there be a separate thread for die-cast model collection instead? think i hijacked this thread by accident


i tot this thread of Aircraft Modelling is open up for all die cast, plastic, or as well as GK...as long as the item is Aircraft. hmm.gif

Juz material problem, cuz diecast is more value for sure.
About detailing, plastic also can do very detail,
but not so value anyway.
Diecast sure is better, but sometime detail not so good.
Ya, CW and HM is make in diecast.
But for CW and HM, detailing sure is CW win.
If you want to collect F-14, better collect CW brands,
can refer back some photo, the detail is great for sure.
BTW, EM is already assembled complete model, juz like CW and HM did.
*
wonder how big the size box for easy model f15?
can provide the measurement. The F15 look well paint.
can take any close up photo. smile.gif

no space, 1/72 su 33 length around 13". sad.gif
so, no choice, i order 1/144 plastic kit for su-27, su-33, & su 34...& a J15 egg plane.

for paint job, GainCorp too plain, no wethering & no lining.
decal seen to be better than EM.
how much for GainCorp??

for lining, u can use pencil.

how can compare like that? one is diecast, the other is plastic.

how's the detailing of the f/a18 compared to witty wings? from pictures, seems less details than witty?

everyone have it own preference & budget.
for display, it doest matter it die cast or plastic, as long as it well detail.

Of cos, u pay wat u get.

Cheer.

true... and i've seen some pretty awesome finished kits (your included!). 

i'm a noob in this hobby and i've read that plastic models don't last that long. not sure whether that's true or not, though.
*
plastic model can stand for decade as long as dont exposure under sun light.
if the model cannot long lasting, u can get a new unit. brows.gif
even die cast & plastic model, the paint gonna fade (paint drop) time after time.

1/72 is GK, harga lagi mahal dari completed paint model.

for 1/100, either u get alter (paint paroduct) or bandai.
but intern or cost & material, & paint job, i prefer Alter, it cheaper & well paint...compared to Bandai that need to assembly by yourself.

i Just PM lyn seller who wan to let go this unit. smile.gif (evil version)
user posted image

one of the finishing product from net, not as good as Alter: bcos this is RED decal (bandai) VS (Alter) Silkscreen. sad.gif

for alter, if got bonus, then i get it. sad.gif

I think if search at Taobao must be more cheaper,
but if include with shipping price and tax... nearly same... sweat.gif

local no more re stock.... & no reissue. sad.gif
the price range is from taobao.
i donno how big is 1/100, wait after i get my bandai maze, then i will decide mau to get Alter or not, if the size r big around 18-20cm lenght.
unlike Gundam, Alter once sold there r very hard to reissue or ..... possible wont reissue anymore. sad.gif

edit: Maze length 19cm / FR length 22cm. thumbup.gif

Broke liao after buying too many model stuffs. tongue.gif
And afraid cheating seller on taobao, afraid the model is damaged and it sell again. sad.gif
Hard to find the trustful seller on this Alter Mave. hmm.gif
*
got trustfull seller, but i cannot guarantee the shipping company can well handle the item. hmm.gif
u can ask seller to pack well, then u need to topup the shipping cost abit.

The price for Mave r crazy, even bandai mave already reach RM 180 - 200 (excluded shipping).
i get my mave at lyn for RM 140 included shipping.
the alter Mave price already up to RM 580 above & more. (limited unit) sad.gif

lucky the FFR is bigger, cheaper & plenty of stock compared to mave. icon_idea.gif
will get the FFR end of the year. smile.gif
