fearyaks Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 I was thinking of getting an AB custom but I've got some other ideas that I'd like to see through first. I'd be interested in seeing what you do/get done. Quote
Valkfan Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 In the VERY near future, I'll be completed with my AngelBirds custom and will be putting the pictures in the customs section. Valkfan Quote

Cheers~! 339156[/snapback] I've noticed you've said "Angel Squad" but I'm talking about AngelBird 1. I'm not sure about making a whole squadron. If you look carfully at the artwork or in the anime, you'll notice that there is only 1 paint scheme for the AngelBirds just like there is for the Blue Angels and the Thunderbirds. Obviously, the variants are just custom jobs from the creator. So, once I make one, all I have to do is customize 5 sets of tailwings numbered 1 through 5 to have every AngelBird in the squadron. I do admit that all five side by side would be bad ass. Valkfan Edited October 24, 2005 by Valkfan Quote
Valkfan Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 (edited) I really like the picture of these customs but I do notice a few things that bug me about them. First, only the top of the left wing has the Macross symbol as opposed to both wings on both sides. Also, the lower leg sections should say AngelBirds and not U.N. Spacy which should only be placed on top of the right wing. Other than that these are some really sweet variants of the AngelBirds fighters and I'd love to see more of them. Where'd you find this picture? Valkfan Edited October 24, 2005 by Valkfan Quote

Damaramu Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 I'm planning on customizing one of my Jet Fires into a 1/55 Angel Bird. It's gonna be a lot of cleaning, painting and puttying (to the blunted nose that is). I'm not sure what I'm gonna do about the markings though. Anyone know where I can find 1/55 Angel Bird decals?

I think it's cool that you're going to make an AngelBirds custom out of a 1/55th. Please take pictures when you're done and have them placed in the customs section for all to see. Believe it or not, the last two custom 1/55th's to be added to the customs page are mine and I added them a LONG time ago. It would be nice to see more love given to the 1/55th. Valkfan Quote

The tail fins at the right should have the one at the left valk. It should have one Macross Kite symbol on the wing, the other side will have the Angel Birds script. Just like the Hasegawa Paint scheme. I really admire the guy who made this! Is this Redemption's work? Cool! Been planning on making one and still planning to do it I would really like to ask questions to the guy who made this Quote
