Sculpting - apart from the base - is complete on this scratchbuild project! Many delays, but we're almost there.
Guns were turned on a lathe in brass, and a pilot sculpted in Milliput and Aves. This is a very rough, and untrimmed assembly.

In between scratchbuilds for Studio Starforge, here's a little distraction - building Laputa's 'Flapter' from the Studio Ghibli movie.
Designed by Hayao Miyazaki, this ornithopter is pure steampunk heaven. While not quite finished, the paintwork is mostly done.

The 1:72 Knight's interceptor scratchbuild is now in progress.
After drawing up some plans, with research from screen-grabs and Revell's very nice 1:24 'Easy Kit', styrene has been cut, and a few odds and ends assembled.

Our sculptor Petar B will be going to Mac Aus Con 2009 in Brisbane - Australia's first ever Macross convention. The convention will kick off with a special screen of Macross movies at the Regent Theatre in Brisbane. There will be all sorts of modern and vintage mecha action on display. The con takes place over 16th & 17th May 2009. Studio Starforge is proud to a minor sponsor with some prizes up for grabs at the modeling competion!
We encourage any mecha fan - and especially Macross fans - who can make it, to come to the event. Full details can be found at MacrossWorld here.
UPDATE: the last few tickets to the all-day cinema event are now highly discounted! Snap them up while you can!
UPDATE AGAIN: Petar B was the proud winner of the 'Custom Model Paint' category for a 1:72 VF-2SS.
