Battle starship

I was not expecting the different colors - thank you for the nice surprise.
It reminds me of Chris Foss' designs. His ships are a lot more colorful than most designers'.

Thank you Tom-san!

Foss is the great artist.

From 'Alien' to ' Guardien of the Galaxy'
His work always amaze me.


You, my friend, are indeed The Mad Scientist of Modeling !

Love the corridor look and mirror trick !

Pcoz

I'm so happy to hear that you like that corridor.
It needed a precise work and that makes me tired.
Thank you so much!

Agree with all of those above. The colors, the mirror illusion, the reflected light — really beautiful stuff. This is starting to feel like it might be your most complicated and ambitious model yet.

Thank you for your pleasant comment, Bones-san.
I thought it's a bit too fancy but I'm so relieved to hear that.

Truly Awesome looking. Wow! 100% agree with the other comments. Once again surprised and delighted. :)

You never disappoint my friend.

Thank you so much! Hagoth-san, Always!
I'm simply blown away:thumbsup

Thank you very much for your kind support for my work, Moo-san.


Thank you very much my friends.
It's so curious but when I'm on the workbench, I expect nothing but think about my build though.
But any of your comment makes me so happy and makes me feel I did something.

As I look into it, there are something I still have to take care.
I will fix them and post any progress soon.

Again, thank you very much for all of your kindness.

I think ILM would have sure loved to have you helping out.
Great stuff.

Thank you very much, Michael-san! ILM! No way,
As for the mess I'm doing since this morning, i7m sure I'm just a kind of Integrated Loon and Moron.


Now I'm taking a little break during a work on fixing a window frames.
I'm trying to make each surface of trihedron as a single parts.
I'm tuckling this since 8 o'clock this morning. Now is noon and I could managed to make it.



See you later.

I wouldn't be surprised! :D


Ah, ha. You found that!
That's my new business project makes me a millionaire.;)
So that I can buy a pile of model kit to bash.:rolleyes


Maybe you've known that but Katsu-Curry is a Japanese very popular menu basically a dish of curry and rice with pork cutlet.
Chinese Character 'Katsu' (勝)means 'win' or 'victory' and sounds similar to 'cutlet' for us.
So we call a pork cutlet as 'Ton-Katsu' 豚カツ’. 'Ton' means pork or hog.
And a Katsu Curry is often loved to eaten by the students who will have an achievement examination next morning.

My name Katsuhiko consists of Katsu and Hiko (勝 彦) Hiko is a character for the male's name which means 'talented'.
A typical mane here. My Grandfather gave me this name.


Have you ever tried Katsu-Curry? This is very typical one.

Every time I visit this thread I see and learn something new. Now something new to try.

I must say that the name Katsuhiko is very fitting for you. A very talented win for all. Your Grandfather had remarkable foresight in giving you that name. ;)

Maybe I should say simply 'thank you very much'.

Wow, thank you veryt much and enjoy!

Here's a little progress.


I made a window frame and tested fitting.

I made a several styles of window frame and picked this.
I never thought it took so many hours.

Little adjustment and go.

I was moving some photo from Photobucket and
I found this was built more than 5 years ago.

Time flies, my friends.

Katsu,
 
The window frames look fantastic, they really finish the window off, love the space fighter jet was it a mismatch of various kits ?
 
Beautiful job on the window frames. Love the little jogs and cuts in the lines of the supports and girders. Gives it a rugged heavy duty construction look.

That little starfighter is awesome! Looks like you been rolling in the dough from your Katsu Curry business for some time.
Profits already went to a couple dozen kits for that one. :lol

Actually I'm not recognizing many model kit parts on it. Mostly scratch built with 1-48 scale FA-18 (or possibly 1:32 F-14 in previous background shot) decals?

Beautiful command centre Katsu - san , incredible detailing again ! . Noticed that you've painted the window frame . Does that mean you're planning to paint the rest of your ship too ?
If so , what colour/ s do you have in mind ?
Thanks for sharing , always look forward to your progress mate !
Cheers Ged
 
Amazing work as always Katsu-san..
I am still following this build in awe..
@Bengrim09 and @jarroth : This is the topic.. Sad to say most pictures are lost . Damn Photobucket..
https://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=130212

ahhh I remember this now I looked over this last year, it seems my memory is starting to fail me, outstanding work katsu-San

Wish I could see the pictures of that one... :cry
I'm NEVER using Photobucket. :angry
 
Katsu-San,

If I modeled your Star Fighter up in 3D would you let me turn it into a 3D printable model and post it on some site like Thingiverse? I have several very nice 3D printers that I could use to replicate it. Do you have some pictures of the bottom side? I'd start the project up in a new thread with your permission.

Some how I imagine those guns being GAU-8A 30mm Gatling guns like the A-10 has. Two of them would pack quite the devastating punch. :cool:cool:cool
