After working out the kinks in MLCAD (which I discovered a few months ago,
much to the detriment of my free time), I put together a nice set of
non-transformable Macross VF's in fighter mode that I'm quite proud of.  So
far, I've got a VA-3, a VF-1, a VF-4, a VF-11 (with and without FAST packs),
a VF-19A and a VA-X-11.  I'm currently working on a VF-5000, VF-9 and a VF-14.

For me, since I'm not trying to add any transformability into my models
(I've found that it would have been too hard having little to no experience
with mecha construction combined with the inherent limitations of CAD
design), the hardest part is getting the scale right while keeping the line
art proportions correct.  Once I get the hang of rendering these models via
POVRAY, I'll probably post some pics somewhere, but till then, anyone who
wants to check them out with MLCAD can drop me an e-mail (with the caveat
that I rarely check my inbox, so any response may take a while).

Anyways, its gratifying to know that I'm not the only one out there who is
building Macross mecha out of (virtual) Legos

So . . . I know a while back people were either building or thinking about building VF-1 valkyries. So anybody have anything to show or report. I haven't touched my VF-1 project or Lego for that matter in ages. So I have nothing really new to show. (...) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
