That's all for now.

Looks really great.
Puts a lot more realism to it...

Thank you Timo, you should try putting all the photos in a folder and run as a slideshow. It's a cool effect to see the before and after. It might help you decide which decals you want to use and which ones you don't. For a long time while I was waiting for ED, I was thinking about detailing it to make it look strictly like an animation model only. But now that I have in sitting in front of me, and I've learned how many decal images there are, I prefer to mix animation model with life-size prop into one. Some of the original decals are just too nice looking not to have on it. The animation model was kind of naked compared to the life-size prop, regarding decals.
I sent the images to the printer one hour ago; I should have them in about a week.

I think that sounds great. Will you have enough space on the bottom to put Robocop there?

It would fit RoboCop, yeah on the bottom level.
But I am only doing the straight stairs, so it won't turn like in the movie, because if I do that, this base would be really tall and wide. People need to have a huge space to display it.

Did anyone else get this line on the dome?

I think you should change what it says in case it is still legible.

Did anyone else get this line on the dome?

Yes, it's visible on mine as well, but only from certain angles
I think there's also one on the other side

perhaps its from the box?

On mine it's just the left side, no idea what caused it.

Just checked mine again and I was mistaken, it's just in the left side, hard to see unless I'm looking for it

Can you try to take a picture of it?

 

[Reinhardt]

I have it too, but it's not from the box since there was a piece of that wrap on top of the dome.

was hard to get on camera

Makes me feel better I'm not alone in this.

Doesn't seem to be as significant as mine, but it's definitely there.

I'm sitting here about 8-10ft from my display cabinet and I can see it
I had a hard time getting it to show on camera
It almost looks like the dome as put on with multiple pieces, and we are seeing the corner piece seam

Yeah I was considering that too. It's matter me feel less upset over it since I wasn't the only one.

By the way, what's up with the leaky oil looking stuff around some of the leg screws? I've seen multiple Eds had that, was that in the film?

It's there on the movie prop but was done a bit more subtle. On the HT version it looks pretty bad, as if they're stickers tacked on. It's too sharp, it should look like it's airbrushed on and more natural. They also added way too many of them. Wasn't so prominent on the movie models.

HAHAAAA, you're the first person who noticed. Don't worry, it's going to be WAY too small. I viewed it at actual size. that decal is 12mm wide x 8.5mm tall, and the text is 0.3mm tall. Even with a magnifying glass, I think the high-res printing process won't produce legible text at that size.

 

[Anthrapoid]

Did anyone else get this line on the dome?

Mine is SO subtle, I have a real challenge finding it. I tried different lighting and angles, etc... it's virtually non-existent. Good thing, because I'm going to make a mold from it to cast resin domes.

Tha ****?!! Only reason I didn't comment is because I assumed I'd have been the tenth person to do so!
