Ahh. Cool. Yeah i post there frequently.

It won't help much cause the DETOLF has big gaps in the door side. Might have less dust but not gonna save it totally from dust. Have to find a way to seal the gaps in the cabinet which i yet to have any idea.

I foresee the problem is if u close the gaps, the door will be unable to open/close. Probably use some kinda rubber lining for doors that you often see in aircond rooms to non-aircond-rooms in office.

Hey thanks for the link! I'll go check out Ace Hardware if they sell these.

Yeah they can't fit much valks....i was thinking of sacrificing them to dust and buying some big wooden racks. My room is really dusty for some reason. Clean today, next week can see a layer again. Sigh. I keep cleaning my 25th anniversary YF-19 since its so obvious the dust.

I willing to let go my konig ONLY for a low viz.

I like destroid mode for Monster the best since its the main form. The main thing i can't stand about it is the knees which are totally wrong (supposed to be smaller knees and higher) and the nose cone that folds down and doesn't stay up. I needed to use blue tack to keep the nosecone up in destroid mode.

Otherwise i think its worthy for your collection until they make a better one.

Again this is NOT the upcoming ozma armored kit. The armour is scratch built. Hobby Japan modellers are always faster than Bandai themselves.

What he said.

And the bandai kit shown in shizuoka hobby show is different from this.

Yeap. Only reason to go to tokyo is to get those "hard to find" stuff u can't find here like the LowViz or Konig Monster.

VE-1 up on yamato site.

Nope.

Just pull it out till it locks.

Yes i took out the sponge.

You must pull the lower heat shield out until you hear a click. Then it will lock. Its abit hard to get a grip on it but it works.

I'm assuming you talking about the model kits and not the toys. The box art here is the Super VF-25S...and the Shizuoka Hobby Show one is the Full Armored VF-25S. Compare the armour pieces carefully and you will see its different.

And the difference is the armour pieces that connect to each other. Requires some major part swapping.


Glad you got it to work.

Why suddenly got transformers in this thread. swt.

I used promodeller's weathering wash.
http://www.promodeller.com/

Easy to use......supposedly. I had some problems with my wash forming bubbles on the surface (probably due to lousy brush?) so when it dries before i wipe the excess off, it forms splotches. After the tomahawk, i found the right time to wipe it off gently from the panel lines to make a weathering effect in the direction the wind supposed to flow on the valk. I'm quite happy with the results. Its just not as easy as the video makes it seem to be.

Alto Saotome DX EX-Gear.

DX....oooh...i think i will get Ozma and Michael versions.

You're really keng and hardworkingla

For me i gave up on one model liow....so much blood and tears to make even one but you made all the SMS Skull Squadron.

They fixed the fugly neck from the old VF-25S Ozma. And this doesn't look half bad actually.

It is.

I am not pro lah. I just use ready made weathering wash from promodeller and followed these video instructions.





I wanna do a more advanced weathering next time...make it look more natural. Have to make the wash look like its flowing with the air flow.
