Grayson72 Posted March 17, 2005 Posted March 17, 2005 Looking for color schemes when I build the 19 with the conversion wings. thanks Quote
ChristopherB Posted March 17, 2005 Posted March 17, 2005 Good idea Chad, I've been wondering the same thing. I would hate to waste such a cool set of wings by not making sure the color scheme is worthy of their use. On second thought, I'll let you stick with cannon, and I'll go for custom. Quote
ChristopherB Posted March 17, 2005 Posted March 17, 2005 I'm not saying this color scheme is cannon, but these are the wings we have installed on a Hasegawa YF-19: Quote
Grayson72 Posted March 17, 2005 Author Posted March 17, 2005 (edited) Hey cool thanks Ido, looks like those wings would work for the F and S versions then. The S version looks like it doesn't have the forward fins behind the cockpit like other versions of the 19. Chris - I have seen those pics before, it looks pretty sweet actually. You think you can pull that scheme off, looks tough? Got any pics of a 19 with the big sound booster pack in fighter mode? Edited March 17, 2005 by Grayson72 Quote

hellohikaru Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 There is more to a VF-19F/S than just the wings. Completely different vernier arrangements, different canopy, different v- stab position, shield, etc. Not sure if a wing conversion set can turn the Hase kit into a S/F. Quote
Graham Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 Yep, that's correct. Simply attaching a set of F/S wings to a YF-19 or VF-19A does not make it a VF-19S/F. Pretty much every part of the VF-19S/F is different from the YF-19. Major differences would be completely different lower leg design with vernier ankle ring, more outwardly placed tails, smaller shield, no canards, completely different shoulder shape with folding flaps on rear shoulders, plus many, many other differences. If you put a set of those F/S wings on a Hasegawa YF-19, I guess you could call it a prototype VF-19F/S, but it would never be a true VF-19F/S without major resculpting of most parts. Graham Quote
Grayson72 Posted March 18, 2005 Author Posted March 18, 2005 (edited) Well maybe I'll go for a prototype S version then, I kinda like the sleekness of no canards on the front. Are there any more accurate lineart references for these versions? Edited March 18, 2005 by Grayson72 Quote

Hi Chad, I can't really do any painting where I currently live, plus I don't have an airbrush with me, so I won't have an opportunity to try for a while. Christopher Quote

Chronocidal Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 I'd guess not at all canon.. considering that version of the -19 was never really seen outside of Mac+ (and a video game). The problem is the differences in the YF-19 and VF-19 are really difficult to bridge, so I guess people settle for inaccuracy so they can use the Hase YF-19 model. Actually, I'm not even entirely certain that a 1/72 VF-19 kit exists.. I'll have to check in the models section. Quote

The VF-19A thing seems to come up on every VF-19 thread out there. I think we get the idea already. Quote
