flyfort17 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I like it. Who makes that kit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AnthonyWan Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 It's a recast kit Todd (so I'm not positive exactly who made this..) The interesting thing about the anime garage kit industry is that 80-90% of all kits are recasts of some kind (and varying quality)..."original" kits are really hard to come by, really expensive. This recast happens to be of...medium quality, it's got some mold imperfections and some pin-holes (squadron green in the photos :)) Watch the for sale section on E2046.com Forums (by far the best place to get these figures other than the E2046 store). Ebay is another good place too. Here's what she should look like when finished. I'll probably have her mostly assembled (in subassemblies) before I go home for Thanksgiving...I'll get to priming then probably more surface prep. Probably painting her up over my holiday break, so sit tight! :) -Awan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liberator24 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Now if you could find the real chick and strategically have her place the mirror in the same spot you did.... Oh, hell yeah!! Diversity is the key to our hobby...Fortress has got my talked in to doing an Abrams....Dont know what the heck it is, but I am up for the build.... -Jim Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sv51macross Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 It's NSFW (no HC, just some nude/risque, and about half is gundam/mecha) but this guy is absolutely fantastic at building models/figurines. Even made some spectacular Macross Jets. http://codyscoop.com/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
