ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 (edited) Thanks ruskiiVFaussie!! Heres a few more pics of my VF-19. I still have work to do on it, but one day she'll be finished!! Custom landing gear is on the drawing board. As well as a few more pics of my new VF-0A, I love this Phoenix!! Take care friend!! She just... stands out! Like, badass all over, whilst nice and smooth. Really nice custom mate, thankyou for the extra pics. Yamato should use it or something similar. Edited August 20, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie
TCracker Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Dammit, the pics of the new 1/60 is just sweeettt......oh well, here goes the credit card....
505thAirborne Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 cant stop playing with my v2... Roy Fokker in a sports car, that is just genius!! Love the pics!!
NoSuchFile Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 (edited) Just got my Nora (I'm late I know) Color is really darker than I expected, pics of it don't give justice to such an awesome paint job, great job Yamato! Oops, forgot pic Edited August 20, 2008 by NoSuchFile
David Hingtgen Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Just got my Nora (I'm late I know) Color is really darker than I expected, pics of it don't give justice to such an awesome paint job, great job Yamato! Congrats---Nora's doesn't seem to be that popular, despite how awesome and problem-free it is. It's overall the best valk I own. It always photographs more "pink" than it is--it's really much more of a wine color IMHO.
diabloM Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 it is time for my 1/48 to be in 4th mode = the storage mode more 1/60s are on the way...
misterryno Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 it is time for my 1/48 to be in 4th mode = the storage mode more 1/60s are on the way... ......I really hate how they made the landing gear white on the Stealth .........maybe they'll correct that with the 1/60 v.2
nightmareB4macross Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 ......I really hate how they made the landing gear white on the Stealth .........maybe they'll correct that with the 1/60 v.2 The landing gear should be white. Ask David H. he's the fighter guru around these parts.
David Hingtgen Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Basically--yup. Military landing gear is white, period. (except for the very few planes that have titanium landing gear). Stealth bomber? Bright white gear. Stealth fighter? Bright white gear. Special ops night-mission pure black C-130? Bright white gear. It's a safety thing---bright white makes cracks and leaks show up really easy for visual inspection. Always wondered why civil airliners don't do the same. (Painted silver if Airbus, pale grey for all others) I was always a bit annoyed that a 1/48 Milia, while having white gear, has red main gear bays.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) Stuff what it should be in R/L, Stealth should be just that, bad ass mutha trucka black beast from hell! It's like fluffy white slippers with white l/gear. Edited August 22, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie

VF-18S Hornet Posted August 22, 2008 Author Posted August 22, 2008 Roy Fokker in a sports car, that is just genius!! Love the pics!! I agree that was awsome what scale car is that
DarkReaper Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Here is my current collection, my 1/72s aren't on it though as they are still at my parents house.
misterryno Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Here is my current collection, my 1/72s aren't on it though as they are still at my parents house. That's a beauty of a collection....you don't need those 1/72s anyways .
DarkReaper Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Meh, it's tiny compared to what everyone else seems to have, I plan to expand it though, what with all those sweet VF-1 v2s coming out, the destroids or Frontier valks.
diabloM Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 I agree that was awsome what scale car is that it was diecast Tomica Nissan 350Z in 1/58
zephon Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 I only have a couple of 1/48 VF's -- both of them purposely in non-canon schemes: Coming from a new collector, playing catch-up isn't easy!
nightmareB4macross Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 Here is my current collection, my 1/72s aren't on it though as they are still at my parents house. Nice collection. No clutter and plenty of room to see all the mechs. *The little Revy YF-19 looks like it needs to be put on a diet. The suckers fat!

Thank you for the compliments!! I am waiting for Hobby Link Japan to get resupplied on the Macross Zero VF-0B 1/72 kits, and get a few of the VF-0D kits too, I'm going to try a few different custom paint schemes on those kits. Hopefully down the road do some work on other Valkyries as well!! This is the other VF-19!! Peace!!!
mechatek Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 *The little Revy YF-19 looks like it needs to be put on a diet. The suckers fat! I guess that's one of the few angles that make the Revy 19 actually "look" fat. So remember when the GFs and wifes ask that age old question, you can respond "Oh it's just the angle that makes you look fat, honey." Then again maybe not.

MaveRick Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 Hells YEAH!!! BAD A$$ COLLECTION MATE!!! thanks ryan, yours is bad ass too in its own right! Sweeeeet collection! I like the green glass, provides a great background. thanks dude.. the cabinet was originally all glass, 'til i figured out it would be better to replace something reflective like a mirror as backdrop or something semi-transparent. It makes it less straining for the eyes. I wanna see some close ups of that top shelf. will do.. pictures to follow Yeah what Miriya said, high res photos maverick please mate! Your display is most impressive! I LOVE THE GREEN GLASS!!!!! next best thing to mirrored glass for sure. Even your bed is elegantly CLASSY. Oh the green backdrop's actually Poly Carbonate, not a glass mate.. will post pictures with the rest of the my stuff
