Ufuk AYDINER Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 After my first Valkyrie won 3rd place at 12th Kavala Model Show @ Greece approx 11 days ago , yesterday I received my second VF-1J kit. As 11PM I started to build sub assemblies. So far the situation is.. I closed landing bay sections. Few gap filled with Tamiya 0,3 styren sheets, still need some model filler. Leg's pivot point is too high placed (error?) so heavy cutting needed for nozzle section. I divided main gun into two pieces, walls made with same 0,3 sheet. For middle section I'll need some styrene tubes, local hobby store will be glad too see me again:) For inner wall of arm's forward section I used same sheet to avoid putty and sanding procedure. ..and these are the pictures of the my first one; Quote Link to post Share on other sites
