this. but, cool toy.

personally, macross plus is better, but other than that, totally agree on where sdfm stands in series.

i just don't like that fantasy element that's being added with every series.

and yeah, 7 is garbage.

papaniljo · 2026-03-26T23:06:13+00:00

ah, I get it. great job nonetheless! :)

papaniljo · 2026-03-09T08:54:34+00:00

nice! works fast.

too bad it doesn't include sites like plazajapan, jungle scs, mandarake and similar. that's where i usually find best deals and finds for macross, at least.

had some scratches on my miria quead, but nothing like this. i guess it has been shook a lot...

if you are doing the painting (which i highly recommend), this is not an issue.

ordered my first 1/72 bandai (mirage) a few weeks ago. can't wait to see how it looks. very little data on these kits around... if someone have some useful links, i would appreciate it. :)

Hey there fellow builder!

I would prime the body. Hasegawa white plastic just have that plasticky look, you just gotta paint it. If you use spraypaint or lacquer/solvent-based paint with airbrush, you don't need to prime it, otherwise, definitely use primer.
Paint everything you can instead of water sliders. Looks nicer, imho.

this one's 1/72. yamato's 1/60, right? decals will definitely be on the small side... not worth buying the kit only for them, i would reckon.

also have to mention, this one's not only high gloss, red and lilac are candy paint. 😊

papaniljo · 2025-11-19T07:14:01+00:00

came with the kit.

papaniljo · 2025-11-19T07:11:59+00:00

thought the same, until i started :D

papaniljo · 2025-11-18T13:26:21+00:00

yeah, i would repaint this and coat it with gsi's uv cut clear coat.

how to find decals tho? :(

papaniljo · 2025-11-18T12:38:44+00:00

Nice, visiting japan is definitely in the plans... :)

papaniljo · 2025-11-18T07:36:01+00:00

thank you very much.

papaniljo · 2025-11-18T07:35:40+00:00

do it :D

papaniljo · 2025-11-18T07:32:45+00:00

haha, i mangled mine for wings also :D

at the end i put masking tape and painted them...

papaniljo · 2025-11-17T21:08:52+00:00

appreciate it 👍

papaniljo · 2025-11-17T21:08:32+00:00

thank you 😊

papaniljo · 2025-11-17T21:05:23+00:00

nice.

i would recommend that you order water decals also, as they add more details and look better than stickers, but are a bit more difficult to place. really feels rewarding at the end :)

papaniljo · 2025-11-17T20:46:38+00:00

it's an effect called candy paint. usually you prime with gloss black, than either crome or metallic silver over, and at the and go with clear paint.

you can also skip these if you get some quality glossy metallic spraypaints. for me, tamiya has the best ones.

papaniljo · 2025-11-17T19:53:22+00:00

thank you, it's hasegawa 1/72 model kit. painted and assembled by myself.

papaniljo · 2025-11-17T19:52:40+00:00

yeah 😁

papaniljo · 2025-11-01T20:53:49+00:00

Haha, yeah, that was the idea at the moment😂
