Quiltra-Queleual, 1/20000 scale




Completed today, a Super Dimension Fortress Macross kit by ARII, released in 1982. It was the second model I ever put together by myself. I decided to refurbish it so I took it apart. It was easy to clean up the cheap glue my parents had bought me. I had to replace all of the antenna things and sanded down the front so that it had more of a slope the lower it got like the ships had in the cartoon or “Anime,” as many call it. I also used super glue to make the various bubble module things on the forward sides more organic and stick out more. I used a double base because I plan on modifying the SDF-1 that came with it so that it is in battle mode as opposed to the cruise mode it was cast in. Sadly, I only have found half of its main body and the antenna things that go on the “Shoulders.”

Interesting fact… Ok, not interesting but a fact: I bought this at the same place and time as the Thurvel-Salan kit that was documented before the previous post. The reason I chose to buy this one was because I was under the false impression that it was the class of vessel that Breetai and Exedor used. I was wrong, that’s a Nupetiet-Vergnitzs. :c

Turkish Spiderman, 1/18th scale







Custom figure completed yesterday, September 1st, of “Spiderman” as he appeared in the Turkish film 3 Dev Adam. He’s made from 25th anniversary G.I. Joe parts. I gave him a beer belly like in the movie. :3 Figure stands approximately 3.75 inches tall.

Thurvel-Salan and SDF-1, 1/20000 scale





Completed Thursday August 13th, 2009; a Super Dimension Fortress Macross kit by ARII, released in 1982. It was the first model I ever put together by myself. I decided to refurbish it so I took it apart. It was easy to clean up the cheap glue my parents had bought me. I had to replace most of the antenna things and the forward bubble piece. I also added the smaller gun turrets. I had assembled the small SDF-1 prior, so I just removed it from its base and put it on the double base I had used here.
