I have also built this kit in the 1990's and think you did an outstanding job. I remember my kit comming with an extra Exador figure miniature. Anyone else remember that?

I have this one, made it 30 years ago… time flies

That lighting is sick.

You needed an alien tongue to read, let alone speak Zendraati.

The officer's name was Commander Dosul if I remember. He was Admiral Gloval's arch-enemy throughout the first Macross series.

Gotta fire the Main Gun for a minute to fry that Not-So-Jolly-Green Gigant...

That Zendraati flagship made the the Macross look like a Veratech...

You showed your face! That collection is clutch...

Thanks for the video; I see so few vids about painting a Mon Cal cruiser, its nice to see your process and the final result was excellent!

Sick. Sick sick sick sick.

That looks great! I never thought about lighting this kit. Incidentally, I've been building this and the three other Zentraedi starships simultaneously for my own channel. It's nice to see someone else building this kit, and the choice of colors.

Possibly my favourite build to date. Wonderful work and I can't wait to see the larger craft project being realised. You're the BOSS!

Awesome build! Thanks again for the shout out! Keep up the good work

I like the dude fishing!

Love Macross! Fantastic work! Can I ask what settings you used on your FDM? That cityscape looks fantastic.

very nice.

To give an idea of scale -- The SDF-1 Macross is supposed to be 3/4 of a mile long. The Zentraedi flagship (Breetai's vessel) is roughly 2.5 miles long! Yeah, ridiculous! I don't know why sci-fi does this. Most ships in real life are less than 100 ft long with most ships being well under 1,000 tons! We've built supercarriers up to 1100 ft long (85,000 tons+) for roughly 65 years but they haven't changed shape or dimension much. They're the largest practical ships for their use as a mobile airfield. There just hasn't been any point in building them larger! The largest ships are actually tankers and those like Knock Nevis's class generally have not been successful ships; they're just too large for most purposes and don't pay off very well. This business of 1,000-3,000 ft long ships in sci-fi is ludicrous! They're just not practical and the energy requirements to move them are enormous. Improbability drives indeed!

I only just recently found your channel and subbed! Great diorama, I now look forward to binge watching your older content and seeing what new creations you make in the future. Great job!

Even though that ship never entered Earth's atmosphere, this turned out really nice!

Very cool project, love the sense of scale with the city below

The plan whenever I do my Flagship is to use Olive Drab for the top and Neutral gray for the bottom of the hull.

I do need to build my kit of the Zentraedi flagship.

Commander Bretai

Built this in 1980, still sitting on my shelf along with the Drakonian fighter.

Interesting! The city below makes it work.

Absolutely gorgeous 😮

By far the best paint job/weathering that I’ve seen.

Do you think Round 2 will ever repop this kit with an updated sound board? It'd be nice if you could customize the sound!

RIP, Boyd Crompton. I had no idea he had passed away when I made my comments on this video. A lot of us were taken by surprise. It wasn't the cancer that killed him. According to The Ensign's Chair, Boyd contracted pneumonia and with his weakened system he wasn't able to fight it off. It's a tragic loss for the online modeling community....

What a horrible design. This DOES NOT look like the X-71 shuttle at all. Jesus christ. It looks like a normal Atlantis shuttle colored gray

Water effect was cool. What was the reason for such a large cut out in the base?

Very nice! Is that the largest scale kit of the X wing?

"In Honor of Blue Leader-- he died well!" = Klingon tribute... probably! They never did a Blue X-Wing in the original Star Wars because blue paint doesn't agree with blue screen!

I was thinking... If you have Rogue One on disc, it's not that hard to capture sound from it OR find sound files online. The entire Battle of Scarif is on RUclips already! The issue would be you'd have to find a different sound board. I think Boyd from TrekWorks has done some things with this for his Star Trek model kits. (He's a Trek guy; he's not much into Star Wars!). An adaptable/custom sound board is really the only way to acquire what you want sound effects and dialogue-wise. Sound editing is a pain but there are plenty of freeware sound editors (I use Audacity) out there that can edit just about any major sound file format (AIFF or WAV; WAV is most common and the Windows/PC standard). Even a 22 Hz, mono sound file really doesn't sound that bad. Lower than 22 Hz unless you really know what you're doing and better-than-average consumer grade generally doesn't sound as good.

Nice! I've been thinking of getting one of the 1/48th fine molds X wing...

You could have put a light in the cockpit to add a little more realism! Great job 👍

i have the one I bought back in 98, still in the box, never got around to it, always wanted to do it just right

This turned out amazing, cool to follow the prop example!

Look great 👍👍

Looks really cool. I like the Glamour shots shots at the end. I'm working on a Space 1999 Eagle. I decided to build it with the orange VIP pod, so it's a little bit different than the standard Eagle. I'll send you a couple of pics when I get It finished.

Great job, looks really good. What did you use for the wash?

I have the actual MPC kit from the 70s that I’ve been sitting on and literally like 2 months ago I said I was gonna do this exact project! Looks great and now I have motivation to actually do it

Seeing the Prop Store auction listing in 2016 (I think it sold for $90k) gave me the motivation to build the MPC kit I purchased about 30 years ago. I can now say I have a "studio scale" model in my collection. I used the kit decals, so it is Red 5, but the paint and distressing does not follow any screen-used models. The ship doesn't look "new", but it's nowhere near as beat up as the one from the auction listing. I printed a resin R2 to replace the kit-provided astromech.

Nice work, I didn't know they used this model in the ESB, great build, well done!

Who knew there were so many colors on them/ Lights are great!

Se apreciaría mejor si pagarás la luz

Hello, lovely work here. I'm learning to make stone out of xps foam myself, but what do you use to seal it before painting it? It seems to react poorly to most aerosolized chemicals. Thanks!

Pretty rad!!

Nice job.
