miriya Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Daaamn those are cool. Ha! Hikaru wouldn't try anything, he was trapped in the dark with her for nearly 2 weeks remember? LOL!!! Its true! And it is no excuse that he was only 16. What a wasted opportunity! But it was good for the story's tension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutch Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Those look great. Seeing these always makes me wonder...has anybody ever made a separate 1D front end to sling under the arm of Skull 1? I've never seen it, but just wondered. Probably wouldn't be worth it as you'd have to cannibalize a whole Valk, but I've seen people do crazier stuff.

Probably wouldn't be worth it as you'd have to cannibalize a whole Valk, but I've seen people do crazier stuff. I sure have. Oh, I mean I have made a VF-1D with a removable escape capsule that attaches to the arm of any VF-1. It's the only way it should have been. And yes, the seats slide up and out when in battroid mode and the head tilts forward for the ingress. And of course, the heatshield slides as it should. All this and more....

I knew somebody around here would have done that. The VF-1D will make a special appearance at this year's MWCon. Hopefully, in three different variations: Trainer, Marriage, and CF. Sorry, no pics yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miriya Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 And by the way, I love the double Ds too Kicker and Kurt! Awe inspiring. Makes me wish that I was a modeller who could customize like that. Especially after reading about all that yellowing that goes on so there is that added benefit as well as just looking that much more badd assss! I love the weathering by the way.

Hiriyu Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Whatever you saw in the TV show IS what you will see on this VF-1D rendition. Will it sprout another cockpit, after you connect its original cockpit to Roy's Battroid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miriya Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Will it sprout another cockpit, after you connect its original cockpit to Roy's Battroid? That is hilarious! I never noticed that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightmareB4macross Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 That is hilarious! I never noticed that! Ha, ha, ha. I never noticed that, either. Funny stuff. It will only sprout another cockpit if you buy two kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicked Ace Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Along with the sprouting fuselage, the floating gunpod in the picture Hiriyu posted will be difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruskiiVFaussie Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 (edited) So is the option of buying kits foreseable in the future? Will it be adaptable to C/America's kit easily? Or too much moddin involved? I sure as hell want to have this ability for my 2 seater kit. The 2 seater open air view for the dual seaters is of an extraordinary magnitude....

nightmareB4macross Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 So is the option of buying kits foreseable in the future? Will it be adaptable to C/America's kit easily? Or too much moddin involved? Yes and No. The kit will be available at MWCon 2008 and thereafter. This kit, while started with CA's Conv Kit, doesn't really share parts with Cap'n's kit. There a lot of new parts. Just look at my avatar. **HEY KICKER HOW ABOUT SOME SHOTS IN GERWALK MODE? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruskiiVFaussie Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Lookin forward to it mate!!! Won't make it to the CON, but i'll be ready on the pre-order list. Can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
