nightmareB4macross Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 Would it be possible for you to take a pic in GERWALK mode? PM me, I have some items that might be of interest to you. Quote
big F Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 Nice. In the ideal world Yamato would swinging by your house now with a cheque book and a nice box to put it in so they can set up manufacturing for the masses. Quote
Majestic Posted July 15, 2010 Author Posted July 15, 2010 All parts are removable, so there is a relatively easily-transformable 1/48 VF-1 hiding in there. When I get around to it I'll take a picture of all of the parts detached, along with a non-canon Gerwalk version. I'm curious about Gerwalk mode myself...I haven't tried it yet but I expect it to look pretty hilarious(if the leg armor allows it at all). Quote
Majestic Posted September 1, 2010 Author Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) Painted Ventral Tank. I painted this as a test to see if I could remember how to use my airbrush. Will be painting the remaining parts over the coming weeks or perhaps commissioning someone to paint the VF-1 for me. By the way I'm looking for a set of standard 1/48 VF-1 decals, please PM me if you have any available or know where I can find a set. I've got the fast pack decals, but need standard VF-1 decals.

nightmareB4macross Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 That looks really nice. RE: 1/48 Decals Contact >EXO<, IIRC he might have a set or two for sale. Quote
wolfx Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 Very good job on the stampede valkyrie! Hope you got your VF-1 decals/stickers. Any updates? Can't wait to see the finished product. Very very good job so far. Quote
Majestic Posted January 5, 2011 Author Posted January 5, 2011 Thanks. The VF-1 is fully painted and awaiting decals (I found some and they should be arriving in the mail soon). I'm currently painting the armor. I've had to start and re-start a couple of times because I haven't been happy with the colors or my rusty airbrushing ability. Currently I'm trying to decide on a good shade of yellow/orange for the parts colored as such in the lineart. It's an obnoxious color scheme, so I'm trying to subtly adjust it for a more 'realistic' and weathered look. Quote
bong Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Good job on Stampede valkyrie!!! do you decide recasting ? Quote
Skull-1 Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 BTW, what kind of magnets did you use? I'm trying to get the armor on my 1/55s to attach with magnets but can't find any that are small enough to fit yet have enough force to hold. Rare Earth Magnets were suggested. Is that what you used?

Yes, rare earth magnets in a few different sizes. Got them from K&J Magnetics. Between all of the individual missles and armor attachment points, I used around 70-75 magnets. So I won't be displaying this thing near any sensitive electronics! Quote

I can just see all sorts of metal stuff gradually edging it's way towards the 1/48, the end result a giant snowball of metal things and at its heart a nice Stampede Valk. Quote
mojacko Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 nice work...i must admire your excellent rendition to the valk!!! nice scratch build!!! Quote

Kicker773 Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Excellent work man, exceptional!!!! So now that this is finished what's your next project? Quote
Jasonc Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Man, that is some awesome work. My hat off to you for such a fantastic job. I'd love to get my hands on one of these. I also like the gundam colors to it. Wanna make a 1/60 scale one? Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 It's so beautiful... ...it brought a tear to my eye. Quote
Doc_John Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) First off beautiful work ! One of my favorite designs. Are you going to be offering this as Stampede pack kit for sale? Not sure what the next project might be, maybe an armored gerwalk or the platypus valkyrie. I have a soft spot for "ugly" valkyrie variations. May I suggest then .... Edited February 6, 2011 by Doc_John Quote
miriya Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Holy Crap! That is so inspiring and amazing! I am totally blown away! Thanks for the beautiful photos too! Serious eye candy! Quote

Reïvaj Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 Excellent work! It’s really inspiring; thank you very much for sharing! Quote
Rob Posted June 10, 2016 Posted June 10, 2016 Okay so i know this is an old thread but i just wanted to say WOW, very beautifully made . I started this project like 10 to 13 years ago . Never completed it . I don´t think mine would have been as good as this one though. I always tryed to keep the casting side of it in my head. Great work. Rob Quote
Majestic Posted June 24, 2016 Author Posted June 24, 2016 Thanks! Here's a photo I took recently of it in my display case. One of a kind in 1/48 as far as I know! Also just found this awesome computer animation of a Stampede. Wish I had this for reference when I built my 1/48 version years ago! Quote
