Kyp Durron Posted December 26, 2006 Posted December 26, 2006 Since Graham mentioned in his review that the tail fins weren't tall enough, who here wants to step up and make some custom tail fins that are taller to match the lineart? As I am awaiting mine, I know I would buy a set for mine. So who here wants to tackle the job? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller....? -Kyp Quote
Kicker773 Posted December 26, 2006 Posted December 26, 2006 Is it really that small? how about a 2nd seat would be better anybody panel lined theirs yet? Quote
UN Spacy Posted December 28, 2006 Posted December 28, 2006 I don't have mine yet but are they REALLY that small? They look just fine to me. Quote
Wicked Ace Posted December 28, 2006 Posted December 28, 2006 I don't have mine yet but are they REALLY that small? They look just fine to me. They are not as obviously out-of-proportion as the 1/72 scale VF-11. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 Aren't the fins as big as they can be, yet still accomodate the "backwards" foot/ankle in GERWALK? AFAIK that's the limiting factor on the -19's v.stab size. You could make them larger for a battroid/fighter only option, and much larger for a fighter-only option. But to do GERWALK mode, there's not much you could add I think. (You could make them taller, and not increase the chord, but then you have the shape/proportions off) Quote
Graham Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 They are not really that small and as david mentioned, increasing the size could vreate problems with GERWALK mode. Graham Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 I paneled line mine, there isn't much to panel line, compared to the VF-0S, the YF-19 is very sleek... but the limited panel lining does make it look better, the fins aren't THAT small, but I think the front canards could be a tad smaller to be proportional to the tail fin, I guess that's why they look a bit weird...but all in all, a wonderfully great toy...errr...I mean collectible Quote
Kyp Durron Posted December 29, 2006 Author Posted December 29, 2006 (edited) They are not really that small and as david mentioned, increasing the size could vreate problems with GERWALK mode. Graham Yeah, I saw that...I didn't realize that it would create a problem with that till I looked at the pics again... It still wouldn't be a bad idea to have them taller for fighter mode, IMO. You could always take the taller ones off and put on the stock ones if you want to transform it. -Kyp Edited December 29, 2006 by Kyp Durron Quote
