Saburo Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 Beautiful shots as always. Sticker it up after? Mahalo wmkjr! I usually don't apply the stickers because I don't like the raised edges of them, worried that they will start to peel off. If I had waterslide versions I would definitely apply them. Quote

Ignacio Ocamica Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Thanks Ignacio! Oh man, now you made me want to buy one. You know you want it! Go ahead and grab your credit card Quote
no3Ljm Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 You know you want it! Go ahead and grab your credit card If I do that... For sure I will also need to buy a Masterpiece Prime. Hahaha! ...or Quakewave (Shockwave). Quote
mickyg Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 Man I love that thing! Wish I'd been in a position to get one when they were available. Glad to experience it vicariously through all the pics - especially yours Saburo. I love how your photography seems to bring out the details. It actually looks like the flat colors are flatter, and the glossy canopy is glossier! Don't know how you achieve that but I seriously love your work. Quote
wm cheng Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 Beautiful photography! Was there re-issues of this? Mine has the rainbow canopy coating, which issue was that? Quote
spanner Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 (edited) Lovely shots Saburo! Almost makes me want to fit the original head unit back on to my one! Hmmm.. Beautiful photography! Was there re-issues of this? Mine has the rainbow canopy coating, which issue was that? I dont recall so.. although mine has the very same canopy as Saburo's so there may have been several issues released!? Maybe a more knowledgeable forum member might know?

Ignacio Ocamica Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 Mine has the rainbow tinted canopy too. Saburo must have gotten the 30th anniversary reissue. Quote

I am always trying to improve, so I am making adjustments all the time to refine my technique. I hope you are able to add a VE-1 to your collection mickyg. Beautiful photography! Was there re-issues of this? Mine has the rainbow canopy coating, which issue was that? It's the 30th Anniversary edition. Lovely shots Saburo! Almost makes me want to fit the original head unit back on to my one! Hmmm.. I dont recall so.. although mine has the very same canopy as Saburo's so there may have been several issues released!? Maybe a more knowledgeable forum member might know? Thanks Spanner! There was a different head? Mine has the rainbow tinted canopy too. Saburo must have gotten the 30th anniversary reissue. You got it. Quote
spanner Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 Thanks Spanner! There was a different head? I fitted a DYRL VF-1A head to mine to see how it looked and thought it was ok so I left it on! I never really liked the Elint Seeker head.. I'll probably fit the original head back on it to restore it back to how it is meant to be. Quote
no3Ljm Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 Great pictures, Saburo. Not a big fan of the Elint Seeker but I might say I'm digging it now... well, except for that head. Question, if VE-1 or VT-1 get reissued, which one you guys will advice me to get? Quote
spanner Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) Question, if VE-1 or VT-1 get reissued, which one you guys will advice me to get? Seeing that they both are more unique designs compared to other Valkyrie you'd really have to get them both! Or you'll always feel like you're missing something.. well thats how i feel about it. I hated not have a Super Ostrich after i let it go.. Edited June 15, 2015 by spanner76 Quote
chaff.g Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 More love for the VE-1. Thank you I appreciate your kind words. I am always trying to improve, so I am making adjustments all the time to refine my technique. These shots are just incredible. I, and I'm sure many others on this board, would be very grateful if you could find a little time some day to describe the technique, gear, and setup you use to capture shots like these. Quote

I, and I'm sure many others on this board, would be very grateful if you could find a little time some day to describe the technique, gear, and setup you use to capture shots like these. Thanks chaff.g. I have been meaning to put together a write up on my shooting techniques and setups, but I always get side tracked. Life just gets in the way sometimes, I will one day have it written up. If you have any question please feel free to PM me. I don't consider myself a pro, I am still learning as I go. Most of my knowledge is from articles I have read online, tips from friends who are professional photographers and quite a bit of trial and error. Found some time for this.

troyness Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 What a great valk!!!! Took it out of the shelf so it sees some action. Quick phone pics: Nice!...I bet that would look even better with some grey side covers! Quote

I wanted to buy a few of them, but I really needed to save money for the new camera gear. Also the new gear is being delivered today. Edited June 18, 2015 by Saburo Quote

I'll post a regular photo of it in the new toy general purchase thread. Quote

Next thing is to get used to the new camera, process some photos I have taken and wait for the VF-19Adv to arrive. Armored Gerwalk in action! Nice shots. Quote
