Auto Pilot Off Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 i think ill just put the fast packs on my low viz...... hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechafan Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Awesome!!!! I should have ordered 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightmareB4macross Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 I\'m glad I bought at least one. RowBoTech looking or not, I like it. It took a while for it to grow on me. Hey Dyno, how about some close-up shots of the pilot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rnurmin Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Somehow, the pilot looks like Low-Viz 1's pilot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfx Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 The black hands look kinda weird to me...but.....the pilot won it for me. It has the breathing tube like lowviz. >_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F360° Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 with all the repainting job on this valk you would think they would atleast repaint the intake convers to gray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonz Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 i will prefer to consider this as lowviz ver.2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eternal_D Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Looks great and I love it...but anybody else think it's wierd for the intake hatch thing is not color-keyed with the rest of the valk? it's just little details like that that get to me...feels like they had some left over and just stuck it on there.

1 VF-1 2NV Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Anyone going to remove the black paint from the valk to make it look like the lv v.1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mechaninac Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 If all the grays were several shades darker so that the whole thing looked less patchy I'd be all over this thing... as it is... meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightmareB4macross Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Thanks for sharing Dyno!!! That pilot is pretty sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafunguy Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Thanks for the pics! It looks totally bad arse in fighter plane mode. I think everyone will keep it in this mode, especially to show off the sick pilot. But it looks Lame-O (with a captial O) in robot mode. Everytime I see it in robot mode, I crack up. It just looks weird for some reason. I can't put a finger on it, but it looks like a mess? Now I want to see the strike packs on the first Low Viz version.

wolfx Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 THey should have grayed out stickers like the Low Viz. The colored stickers make it stand out too much. And those yellow "dots" on the arms should be gray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppy Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 he is pretty patchy, but that's ok. I think it's more interesting than a straight black valk. More requests for pics.. are there any without the fastpacks? I want to get a good look at how all the different shades match up in fighter mode.

promethuem5 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Somehow it just seems.... unspectacular and kinda... forgettable... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 I think it looks cool but I think the eye visor should have at least been colored green or blue. Maybe a yellow tint and yellow tinted canopy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 I'm really glad the heat shield is gray and not black. Would have been interesting if it were a Stealth skull squad valk... As for the eye piece, I don't think I mind the lack of color there. Maybe if it were yellow? I dunno. All in all, as of right now I like it slightly better than the camo LV but I don't find either really jumps out at me. I can't wait to have them in front of me to really compare though. [sarcasm]What really would have sold me on this valk would have been if they could only find a way to put it in a bigger box. You know, they were on the right track with the 1/60 Elint and Super Ostrich which had several inches of useless plastic. I think they just tried way too hard to cram this thing into a tight spot. [/sarcasm] I'm seriously going to have to sell my luggage so I have somewhere to store this thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DatterBoy Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Am I the only one who thinks this repaint looks like a cheap paint job? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Am I the only one who thinks this repaint looks like a cheap paint job? Would this be in comparison to the amazingly fancy looking DYRL paint jobs... white with a colored stripe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connor99 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Am I the only one who thinks this repaint looks like a cheap paint job? 394735[/snapback] Yeah, but it's either this or that version of CF that fell into a bucket of green paint .

jenius Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 for some reason I bet the clear covers would look good on the fast packs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mog Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 They should have grayed out stickers like the Low Viz. The colored stickers make it stand out too much. And those yellow "dots" on the arms should be gray. Amen to that. I mean it is supposed to be a Stealth fighter. But at least, the red kites mix well with the black and grey paint scheme. Thanks for the pics, DyNo!! Any word on whether the tailfins will have the skulls and crossbones tampo-printed? (I'm hoping not.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Hingtgen Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 It strikes me as "lets make every single piece a different shade of grey with no pattern or reason". That's not camoflage, that's when 20 different people paint their part "grey" and then you assemble all the parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
