Guys,
It's time for me to reduce my macross stash.. First I gonna build a 2nd hand kit I got from Aidy....

Aidy have done a beautiful paint job on the cockpit.. So i Just continue the rest, parts fit on the legs was not very good...so lots of putty used there..

After preshade... H316 is on...

More later...

wah thomas, u diam diam also collected so many macross kits hoh!!!
nice try as a starter. me and bombervince also plan to do macross kits this year!!

guys thanks..I'm a huge macross fan.. :D
more update. I'm using the kit's decals the red and black strips, I'm not happy with it, the decal is kinda brittle and break easily, If I were to build again, I will mask and spray instead.
after decal, a panel line wash with German grey... next will be putting all the small parts assembly on... that is not gonna be friendly with my fat fingers....

RX..
I second the sci-fi GB.. bring it on.. man..

Looks good, Thomas.
I agree with you on using paint instead of decal for the stripes. I haven't build my Macross kit yet, but planning to. A GB might give me a good nudge to start it :lol: .

Masterqq,
excellent work on a Valkyrie!!! :D Great way to kick off Macross 25th Anniversary 2008! I'm sure this will be very motivational to the rest of the guys/gals to dig out their Macross kits to complete as well. By the way, Bandai will be re-issueing their Macross kits February this year as well, so if you missed some kits before, now will be the right time to get it again!!! ;)
I hope we can get a build up of the whole VF-1 Skull Squadron team this time....
cheers,
