Hey anon, I hope you're having a good Saturday and weekend in general. I got done with my FW190 and Spitfire recently. Power supply died so I was unable to post last weekend. But here.

Hell yeah we are chugging along my frens

looks like you specialize in fighter aircrafts

>>82421193

>>82421285
Well I got bored of build tanks so I started to branch out a bit to see what I like more.

whew, alright i got one more bag in me for tonight

>>82421375
holy cow. that thing is massive =^O

>>82421845
Its 1/700 scale. I was thinking about doing a 1/350 scale of either Yamato/Musashi or Taihou/Shokaku/Zuikaku. it just depends really. Probably after I am done with my planes. Still have 8 to go.

>>82420269 (OP)
based
it kinda looks like one i posted a pic of the other day

alright, i had a brief interruption, but this is where i'm putting the 'bookmark' tonight

>>82422156
>Still have 8 to go
heh heh well i guess you've got some time to decide still

tonight we have some very old ska to enjoy

https://youtu.be/v57-_obcX2A?si=W6yaAMq6rTkrebpl

>>82420269 (OP)
shit can you post the finished optimus prime? i missed it
also you're inspiring me to work on the sd.kfz 222 model i have
i hope to post a wip soon

>>82422696
here's the bootleg prime.
these instructions were a bitch on account of how the black and dark blue bricks looked very similar.
and the blue bricks were very hard to see detail in the instructions, i had to shine a damn flashlight to see exactly which brick it wanted me to use! x^(

Buildbros... How did I do?

>>82422811
it is a very fine assembly. nice work, sir

>>82422877
Thank you. The rigging cables too me five days and when I had finished it the first time, I dropped it, so I had to reassemble everything.

>>82420269 (OP)
You just think a girl will see you building soundwave and find it cool, and that shes going to try to date you and you can build lots of transformers together.

>>82422889
damn, nice save.
i think i would've contemplated setting it ablaze in a fit of rage

>>82422919
yes, anon.
that is EXACTLY what i am thinking.
get out of my head!

>>82422646
>heh heh well i guess you've got some time to decide still
Plenty of time honestly. I'll be thinking about what to build next after I am done with them.
Here's that Spitfire I was talking about.

>>82422922
It is what it is, all it takes is time, but my parents demanded that I dispose of it. They need to learn that I am almost 21.
>>82422945
Use a toothpick to paint your canopy frames, thank me later.
>>82421017
If you are inquiring about that pilot figure, I responded. :D

>>82422945
very nice, anon.
thank you for sharing with us tonight B^)

>>82422967
>Use a toothpick to paint your canopy frames, thank me later.
thank you
>>82423081
welcome
Heres what my lone Spitfire faces up against.

>>82423108
I would suggest getting something to accompany your Spitfire, perhaps something from Airfix, Heller or Smer?

>>82423143
Way ahead of you, anon

>>82423170
Nice.

By the way, avoid ICM like the plague for 1/72 WWII aircraft, they are all terrible (but they are the most available company for WWII Soviet aicraft, opt for Hasegawa, Zvezda or Smer instead).

>>82423204
Anywhere I can find a 1/48 seated Navy/Marine Pilot? I am currently build my F4F-4 Wildcat from Tamiya and it appears to be no pilot that came with the kit.

>>82423222
Check /smg/ I replied to you there. Legend and IDAP are the two brands to go for.

>>82420269 (OP)
not a fan of the Lego builds I prefer a traditional kit build if I want a Lego set its for a scene or the mini fig not like I get a lot because of the price

>>82423239
oh that was you? shit. I do live in the USA. so I am kinda fucked about the suggestion about "Super Hobby". Not that I need it right now but it just feels weird not to have a pilot with the kit.

>>82423264
Why not just buy train set figures? They come in multiple sizes, look more realistic, are easier to customize and you get multiple in a pack (Aliexpress has/had a 200 figures for $10 deal).

>>82423293
They were good until last week when the Polish Post stopped sending mail to America temporarily.

For (you) https://gaelhobbies.com/legend-production/p/148-legend-production-lf4822-118-dl4db-c2dcn-5hywe-rx776-x4wb3-j2w37-w2k3x-tpemh-mpmwl-5exhy-sx5aa-ca3md?srsltid=AfmBOopSMyzg9mR2-ugXgngxveI0lTIz8xkD8DbhvZKh0QvIB78EhKiO

Hey now we are getting somewhere

>>82423329
Now thats what I am talking about. Thank you very much, Anon. I really do appreciate that.

>>82423445
You are very welcome.

One last note, this is resin, but I am sure you have seen the plastic vs resin figure discussion earlier in the /smg/ thread already.

>>82423453
I have not. I just went onto /SMG/ and just posted in the thread with my question after finding out my kit didnt come with a pilot.
So what's seems to be the problem or issues that I might come across. Keep in mine I hand paint my kits. Would the Acrylic paint melt the resin?

>>82423563
Painting doesn't matter, sand with a respirator and buy a razor saw. JLC is the best one to buy, they are relatively cheap, are made in the Czech Republic and the handles are genuine walnut. Tamiya also makes some, but they are not as good.

>>82420963
Fuck yea Ravage *makes Transformer G1 transforming sounds*

why don't you just let me get one when I get one how I want? Y'all should have been open til 5 in the Nothing-Foyer.

>>82423651
I'll figure something out. Probably end up contacting customer service in getting a figure from one of their cannibalized kits they got.

>>82423712
i always thought rumble was super cool when i was a kid

i'm going to go broke if lego ever does a constructicons series

>>82423310
been thinking about saving for one of the ships actually like that new pirate ship

>>82425153
Nice. I have thought about getting the Heller HMS Victory for a while, but I have no experience with sailing ships and that one is over $300...

>>82425174
I only have one and its nice the sails look great they do gather dust tho but for 300 you should definitely think on it

>>82425473
Yeah, it is massive, though.

>>82420269 (OP)
why not get an actual transformer?

>>82426527
it's for the love of the build.
a regular transformer won't require 10 hours of building time

>>82420285

thread is still here so i did another bag >:3

>>82428933
You are already more than halfway through. Might as well finish it today and do a new one next week.
