Mechleader Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 Thanks for the link!!!!! That is some build up!!!!! Quote
007-vf1 Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 They made it look just, or even better than the 1/48 Club-M.. very impressive Quote
gnollman Posted December 13, 2003 Posted December 13, 2003 Absolutely gorgeous... I burned one of my paintbrushes in honor of this guy.... Seeing stuff like that makes me feel such heights of emotion... dumbfounded awe and respect for the modeler who is capable of this, and abysmal dismay at my own skills.... Quote
Neova Posted December 13, 2003 Posted December 13, 2003 They made it look just, or even better than the 1/48 Club-M..very impressive What 007-vf1 said! I need to pickup another kit now. Grr... there goes my lunch money! Quote
Totenkupf Posted December 13, 2003 Posted December 13, 2003 (edited) This Valkyrie won the Silver Prize in 2003 Hong Kong Scale Model Contest Science Ficsion Gruop Edited December 13, 2003 by Totenkupf Quote
Totenkupf Posted December 13, 2003 Posted December 13, 2003 In the contest of this year This Valkyrie is also fantastic but had no prize Quote
NERV Posted December 13, 2003 Posted December 13, 2003 what was the winner? ive gotta see the model that beat that Quote
Totenkupf Posted December 13, 2003 Posted December 13, 2003 what was the winner? ive gotta see the model that beat that Here is the gold prize in SF group Quote
NERV Posted December 13, 2003 Posted December 13, 2003 what is that from and how much of it is custom built? Quote
Myersjessee Posted December 13, 2003 Posted December 13, 2003 two interesting notes. 1, the missile "pod" (front of the FP) ...Ive never seen one open that way...is that the way the line are shows, or inspiration? Either way, I like it 2 - the vernier on the upper part of the Fast pack hatch should have been removed and mounted internally...no? Still not trying to nitpick..this muct have taken a lot of time. Great work. Quote
gnollman Posted December 13, 2003 Posted December 13, 2003 what was the winner? ive gotta see the model that beat that Here is the gold prize in SF group Eh... I don't like that as well as I like the Valk.... Just a bit too messy.... Quote
CID Posted December 13, 2003 Posted December 13, 2003 That is one fine work of art. Who ever built the valk must have spent pleanty of time and effort. By that itself should give him "Gold Prize" Thank you for letting us enjoy your work..... Quote
ChristopherB Posted December 14, 2003 Posted December 14, 2003 Hello, Definitely a great job on the 1/72 Strike. Reminds me a lot of the Club M kit. The builder was definitely inspired by it. Quite a few similarities, but also some differences. Mainly, the manner in which the missile pod opens. Of course the 1/48 Club M is made to be ultra-detailed, but to modify a 1/72 Hasegawa to the same level took a lot of work. Sincerely, Christopher Quote
flyboy Posted December 14, 2003 Posted December 14, 2003 what is that from and how much of it is custom built? Looks like large portions are from S.F.3D. (Maschinen Krieger) kits. The front is from an HAFS Gladiator: http://home.att.net/~bklk/models/bk14_2.html Part of the top looks like it's from a Hornisse: http://home.att.net/~mak3000/models/pk41.html The light bar on the front of it looks like it comes from the Gundam 08th MS Ball kit. The gun is probably something off a Zoids toy line. Not sure where the rest comes from. Migth be scratchbuilt. (yeah, I spend way too much time looking at models) Felix Quote
gian7675 Posted December 15, 2003 Posted December 15, 2003 Very nice Strike Valk indeed! I wish my moodelling skills are just as great! I've always wanted to get a Hase Strike Valk and a Super Valk but a have a question: Does the 1/72 Hasegawa Strike & Super Valks have an optional modeling choice to be modeled without the Strike and Super Armours like the 1/72 Hasegawa Super Ostrich kit? The Hase Super O kit has this option wherein you can model it with or without armour. Do the Strike and Super Hase kits also have this option or are you just stuck with the Valk in Strike and Super model? Thanks! gian7675 Quote
007-vf1 Posted December 15, 2003 Posted December 15, 2003 Yeap, just like the super O you can also build it without the fast packs on regular fighter mode. Besides, a little piece of styrene might fix that. I am not sure about the angled Knee though; you might be stuck with that... Quote
Neova Posted December 15, 2003 Posted December 15, 2003 I would get the regular VF-1S or VF-1J or VF-1As if you want to build strike or super without the FPs. It would be a tad cheaper on the wallet. Now I wondery why won't hasegawa release a Strike or Super Battroid with all 3 heads instead of forcing us to buy 2 kits to build a Super or Strike VF-1J! Grr... Quote

Grr... That is Marketing By the way, Super Battroid Valkyrie does come with both heads of VF-1A & VF-1J Quote
Phadeout Posted December 15, 2003 Posted December 15, 2003 I love the coloring of that custom blue/low viz valk... The decal/paint job around the cockpit is truly sweet. (Just had to say something about it since I think it is feeling lonely next to 1st and 2nd prize winners <_ Quote
