misterryno Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Did some more experimenting... That CF looks BAD A$$!
misterryno Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Ha! 12+ a day?!? That's insane, but I believe you hold the record for most active memeber! Yeah....I dropped down to 11.5 from 12+ I will be back up there sooner or later. OO
Dante74 Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Ha! 12+ a day?!? That's insane, but I believe you hold the record for most active memeber! I have an active member too. Not twelve times a day like Ryno, but still, pretty active.
Jepoyako Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 I finally joined the 1/48 family today!!! Ordered from HLJ. So far I've noticed one QC issue, the seat in the cockpit was not glued in straight, ugh!!!! Is there an easy way to pull the seat out and reglue it?

Now it's time to empty your bank account and try to get all the 1/48s you can

I figured I needed something to compare the new 1/60 VF-1S to when it arrives. 20 more years til I retire. Then I can collect like crazy. For now, a valk here and a valk there. I have a lot of catching up to do. Then again, there's always overtime!

eugimon Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 I particularly like the Q-rau one! Give it a hybrid CGI/real metal look.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 They ALL look great Vegas, cheers for putting in the effort! yeah Q-Rau one rules.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 REckon you can work your magic on this one mate? I wonder how it would look... cheers in advance if you get the time vegas.
Vegas Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 REckon you can work your magic on this one mate? I wonder how it would look... cheers in advance if you get the time vegas. ruskii, i need 2 or more different exposures of the same shot. it will not work by just that single shot by itself.

miriya Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 It makes me want to do some sort of colored Chrome finish on my QuedluunRau.

Vegas Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 Vegas Valkyrie, This photo is freakin sweet! Thanks for doing this. thanks miriya....glad you liked it i need more practice on working with the hdr images, they look cool & surreal when theyre done professionally like this for example
MacrossMan Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 I recently aquired this set in anticipation for an LV2 custom by kick a$$ Kurt I hope to commission soon. OO
miriya Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 thanks miriya....glad you liked it i need more practice on working with the hdr images, they look cool & surreal when theyre done professionally like this for example What is this technique? I have Photoshop, can you tell me how to do this? You can PM me if you want. What is hdr?
miriya Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 I recently aquired this set in anticipation for an LV2 custom by kick a$ Kurt I hope to commission soon. OO Nice ground crew. I am thinking of picking up another set of those. Did you get them pre painted?
MacrossMan Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 Nice ground crew. I am thinking of picking up another set of those. Did you get them pre painted? Thanks miriya. I actually got these from the guy you gave me a heads up on. He does awesome work. Thanks for the plug!
miriya Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 Thanks miriya. I actually got these from the guy you gave me a heads up on. He does awesome work. Thanks for the plug! Cool. The guy from ebay? Did he do these custom for you?
MacrossMan Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 Cool. The guy from ebay? Did he do these custom for you? Yeah, Bob Swartz. He's a pretty cool guy.
Fly4victory Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 MacrossMan, Nice ground crew. They can service my Two Seater LV2 until you get yours.
miriya Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 MacrossMan, Nice ground crew. They can service my Two Seater LV2 until you get yours. Ok, first of all, how did you get as two seater 1/48? Secondly, where did you get those badd asss missiles?
David Hingtgen Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 Old-school Paveway and a Standard. Very Vietnam----rather appropriate for the camo.
eugimon Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 (edited) laser guided bomb, looks like a gbu-10 edit: David, you sure? Looks like it has a seeker head to me. Edited July 19, 2008 by eugimon
David Hingtgen Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 I meant old-school referring to the tailfins---they're the non-retractable type. Those were gone long before the Paveway III seeker head came out----there's still a LOT of Paveway II seekers out there, but fixed fins are long-gone. ::edit:: I think it's a GBU-10 Paveway I regardless though.

Fly4victory Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 Bravo Zulu David! You were spot on before your edit. The bombs are GBU-10B Paveway II L.G.B. with MK 84 cores. The others goodies are AVQ-10 Pave Knife Illuminator Pod and AGM-78 A.R.M. on a LAU-77A adapter. The wings stores are thanks to Hasegawa and the reason why I hate Yamato going with 1/60 again as opposed to staying 1/48. 1/60 is an odd scale for modeling accessories. I have a two seater because I made it. Thanks to some parts from the Captain America's VF-1D kit, some interior parts of a VF-1J Hikaru, the LV2 with some parts chopped others replaced, Anasazi37 VF-1D water slide decals and some decals I made myself. The Captain's kit is well worth its weight in gold. I cannot wait until NB4M has his two seater kits fielded, I only have one two seater kit left.
