Kurt Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Hey everyone. Here is the damaged Cannon Fodder that I was working on. I was delayed when I realised I had the wrong shoulder. Thanks to Haterist for the parts he recently sold. Your timing could not have been better. This is not a customers valk, just a left over I had laying around. However it is up for sale, sorry for the off forum mention. I will consider reasonable offers and then Ebay if I need to. Either way let me know what you think of it. Thanks everyone. Quote
RicePiece Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Absolutely gorgeous. Good luck with the sale. Quote
JLYC Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 most gorgeous work. do you mind describing or showing how you made the damages? I especially like the ones where the damage exposes the internal mechanics- did you scratchbuild those? thanks!! Quote
zeo-mare Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 my god what a work of art, you put my skills to shame. come on Yamato a 1/48 CF would be easy for you guys to do. chris Quote
UN Spacy Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Excellent work Kurt. Wow.......it's simply astonishing. Quote
Skull-1 Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 I think that pilot should be fired for incompetence. Quote
Hurin Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 I think that pilot should be fired for incompetence. Heh! We're talking about a CF here! This may be the only CF to have ever taken a scratch and not immediately exploded right there on the spot. CF = Star Trek red shirt. H Quote
Osean Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 nice job man, that is definitely one of a kind. i guess those patches on the nose cone are repairs from previous battle damage? Quote
Eternal_D Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 damn, that's pretty amazing. we hardly ever see any damaged valks. Quote
Die, Alien Scum! Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Great job (again), Kurt! Your customs always impress the hell outta me, but this one is absolutely amazing. Keep up the spectacular work! Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 that's so freakin' cool...better than i expected even Quote
Wheels Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 (edited) I think that pilot should be fired for incompetence. Heh! We're talking about a CF here! This may be the only CF to have ever taken a scratch and not immediately exploded right there on the spot. CF = Star Trek red shirt. H Actually, he may just be one of the best CF pilots out there. By the patch work and current damage, he'd already survived at least two battles, which is more than I can say about the other *cough* dead *cough* CF pilots. Damn, Man! If I'd have the money right now, I'd slap $350 in front of you for that piece of art. Hell, if your gonna sell it, starting price shouldn't be any lower than $200 maybe $250 easy. To ask anything else would be an insult, unless your very generous. Next to the Low Vis, this is easly as valuable with all that beautiful and custom craftmanship.

Or maybe the CF pilots just keep dying in that plane after every battle. Once the crews get it patched up again they just slap another rookie into it only to have it returned damaged again and another pilot fatally wounded. Good luck Kurt on selling that work of art.

AlphaHX Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 *Sniff* Its... *sniff*... so... beautiful. Great job as always Kurt. Quote
MilSpec Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Big Ups on that. Very nice indeed, well done. Quote
Kamion Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Wow. That's very well done! Looks really cool! Putting it up on ebay? Quote
Gabe Q Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Shweet! Great work. It's nice to see something original. I haven't seen a battle damaged custom before. Quote
valkyrie312 Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 WOW! Amazing work! I wish I had those skills. Congrats and good luck wit the sale. David Quote
jezter101 Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 sure will fetch a nice price for that art ... Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 (edited) Well it could be that the pilot was a good cannon fodder but fought a zentradi ace similar to when roy fought milia in SDF:macross and came back with a damaged valk. Come to think of it why not do a damaged skull leader, and sell it as a 'limited edition' battled damaged roy*? Now is there going to be damaged koenig monster coming? I want to see paint chipping, rust, dirt, ash, actual melted parts and gashes in the armor plating, etc *complete with drops of blood in the seat to show how he died..

Kin Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 That's truly amazing work! But I was a bit uncomfortable looking at the dammaged Yamato Quote
Graham Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 I'll add this to the Custom Toy gallery tonight. I notice that one of the forearms is white and the other brown. Is this a case of one forearm being replaced due to previous battle damage, or just Kurt getting lazy and forgetting to paint it Graham Quote
