Garfinkel Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Mmmmmm Michael, such a good looking valk. Which is next, super or tornado? Also can i request a lying down aiming pose please. Quote
mickyg Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Great shot, I like! As for the backpack hinges, the line art shows them angled towards the back like you said. I did that but I didn't like it , so I go with the slightly angled forward because it fills out the shoulders, allows you angle mid shoulder piece high and gives the battroid more of a heroic V shape in the torso. Is the gun on your VF-25G matte coated? BTW I am finishing up processing VF-25G pics. How's the new lighting working out? Nikons are great cameras, you can't go wrong with either. I went with Canon because it was what I learned on. *whispers" stick with Canon Thanks! Good info on the shoulders, I suspected you went that way for a reason. And I agree. Funny you mention the gun. I recall saying the exact same thing about some of.your pics a while back, thinking you'd matte coated all your valks. My secret is the same as yours, polarizer filter. In fact, looking at yours you've just posted, its got the same look now! Polarizer filters are cool! Don't worry, I will stick with Canon. Too much invested to change now. Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Great pics of the G. Still waiting for the reissue. Quote

Hahaha, the cycle of photography tips is complete you asked me a question and I asked the same question to you. Yep, polarizers are great but they introduce a whole new set of challenges when taking dark photos. I am waiting for the weather to warm up here so I can go shoot some landscapes, especially bodies of water that's where polarizers really shine or lack of shine. Nice, yep once you are in a particular system its hard/expensive to jump to a different system. At work a few of my co-workers bought camera (yes, the blame me for their purchases too) and 2 already had cameras. So right now there are 4 Canon, 2 Sony and 1 Nikon. Great pics of the G. Still waiting for the reissue. Thanks yeti! I am hoping Bandai reissue it too. Edited February 1, 2016 by Saburo Quote

I have taken pics of the 3 versions I just need to get around to processing each set, but I'll see what I can do about the lying down aiming pose. Quote

seti88 Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) Nice shots seti88, I especially like the first one. Looks like a Metal Build Exia in the background? Thanks! Everything bokeh'ed blurred looks different right? No MB here just the plain old RG Exia..... haha just realised it wasnt that bokeh'ed! Edited February 3, 2016 by seti88 Quote
Saburo Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 VF-25G Tornado pics. The Tornado pack is the most "fun" to take photos of. Trying to get it to balance in the pose was lots of "fun". enjoy! Quote
spanner Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 im just not a fan of the Tornado parts but your stunning photos have certainly raised my eyebrows to them on this occasion! Gorgeous photos once again Saburo! Quote
Lolicon Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Looks great Saburo! Did you do the saggy wing fix? Quote
Saburo Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 im just not a fan of the Tornado parts but your stunning photos have certainly raised my eyebrows to them on this occasion! Gorgeous photos once again Saburo! Thanks spanner! When it comes to posing in Battroid mode the Tornado is my least favorite, its a pain. It wasn't being very cooperative when taking pics. After some frustrating moments, I got the pics done. Looks great Saburo! Did you do the saggy wing fix? Thank you! Yes after I posted the fix thread which I used the 25F for photos, I went ahead and did the wing fix for the 25G just to make sure it was a secure fit. Quote

It wasn't being very cooperative when taking pics. After some frustrating moments, I got the pics done. The Tornado's just look to bulky even though the armor parts are pretty bulky too but for me they work a lot better than the Tornado's. The super parts are probably the best cos they aren't so overboard and the Valk can stand unassisted without toppling over. I guess its a good thing you have the droopiness fix for them. Quote
seti88 Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Beautiful snaps as always saburo and as always i always want to get more valks after looking at your pics!! B)) Quote
mickyg Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Yep, gonna agree with Spanner here, don't like the Tornado parts at all. But those photos look awesome! And since I own the parts for the 25G, I'm actually tempted to take them out of their box and mess with them now. Mission accomplished, Saburo! Quote
derex3592 Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 You gotta get the blue Tornado parts for the G......they just work! Quote

I like all the the 3 set but of the 3 sets of parts the Tornado Pack is the my least, first going to Super and second Armored. The Tornado is very nice looking in Fighter mode. Beautiful snaps as always saburo and as always i always want to get more valks after looking at your pics!! B)) Thanks seti88, more valks in the collection is a good thing. hahaha Lovely photos as always, Saburo. Thank you no3ljm! Yep, gonna agree with Spanner here, don't like the Tornado parts at all. But those photos look awesome! And since I own the parts for the 25G, I'm actually tempted to take them out of their box and mess with them now. Mission accomplished, Saburo! Take them out and swoosh the valk about it. You gotta get the blue Tornado parts for the G......they just work! Agreed! Quote

And since I own the parts for the 25G, I'm actually tempted to take them out of their box and mess with them now. Mission accomplished, Saburo! The tornado parts are terrible in fighter mode unless you perform the saggy wing fix that was posted awhile back. Considering how simple the fix is, we can chalk it up once again to poor engineering by Bandai. Quote

The Tornado is very nice looking in Fighter mode. I'll have to agree that the Tornado's do look best in fighter mode! Good enough for me to want to splurge on a set? hmm im not so sure about that but its a thought that is in the back of my mind.. Quote
Saburo Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 @sh9000 you have an impressive exotic car collection and nice display with the 2SS. Quote
ChaoticYeti Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 (edited) Rearranged 2 of my wall mounts. I think they came out nice. Edited February 14, 2016 by ChaoticYeti Quote
505thAirborne Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 With the VF-2SS. Some VF-2SS Love, Nice shot!! Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 (edited) Great setup Yeti!!!! All pictures saved!!! Edited February 15, 2016 by Ignacio Ocamica Quote
chyll2 Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Yeti, nice setup. I really like that 19 and 21 battroid scene. Quote
no3Ljm Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 Rearranged 2 of my wall mounts. I think they came out nice. *snip* Nice setup Yeti. Curious to see you re-enact the scene where Isamu on his VF-11B catching Guld's YF-21. Quote
