Bandai Sv-262 DX valk

Yes, definitely... but I was hoping to wait until the next paint scheme was released but since we haven't had an update I may do out sooner with Keith's.

Thanks for all the temptations, but I have fortitude.

Mainly because I'm waiting for the cannon fodder type with the less flashy wings. Is that ever going to come?

Not if you don't buy the first version it won't.

Hmm. Space is limited right now but will try to make that work

[Sildani]

One of the reasons I preordered one. I really really want an A model. With hopefully a female pilot.

Just testing the tabletop studio that I bought.

Hahaha! Thanks Seti. Sorry also that I'm just using my iPhone for this. I don't have a DSLR camera.

I couldn't just figure out how to show more of the reflection. Whereas on the black background, it's easy to show when I tried it on my Figuarts Iron Man figure.

Where did you get it from. I'm thinking of getting one.

I bought it from Amazon during the sale.

Here's another test that I did in Gerwalk mode. I still need to do some studies regarding lighting setup.

It really brings details to the higher level. Do you have a dedicated camera too?

[barurutor]

@no3Ljm I recommend a copy of Light, Science and Magic by Hunter/Biver/Fuqua  or the Dean Collins DVD sets if you're really serious about learning lighting for photography.

Thanks Xigfrid. No, I'm just using my iPhone 7 Plus. No plans on getting DSLR as of this moment.

Thanks Barurutor for recommendations. I just did some crash course watching videos from YouTube yesterday and just tried it out using my phone.

The shots are looking good @no3Ljm!

Here's how BIG it is with Figuarts Iron Man figure and an iPhone 7 Plus for reference.

Thanks for the link. Didn't realize it was that big. I thought the light box was smaller than that. 

Hopefully news of Bogue or white pope comes out.

Nice set! I keep thinking of making my own but that sure makes thinks easier...I just recently bought one light that cost almost as much as that whole set by itself.

The wait for the super parts will end soon.

 

 

[Graham]

Ha, I'd actually forgot about them.

[no3Ljm]

That's the fun part when you paid in advance any TWE order with NY. You totally forget about them. And it will just arrive on your doorstep.

That absolutely would have happened to me if it wasn't for neoexcalibur.

[Bishop]

I got mine yesterday... It's been a while since I swosh around with a macross toy. I love the shape of the wings. I know it's for transformation, but I could not refrain myself to use them as movable wings.

That's if they don't send you an email requesting extra money for shipping, even though they charge for it upfront...

[Lolicon]

If they can't accurately calculate shipping on preorders, then they shouldn't charge for shipping until the item is in stock and ready to ship.

It just makes you look incompetent when you have to ask for additional shipping like that, especially when it's not a one-off incident.

[Slave IV]

This again? We're talking what, about $5 a figure more for shipping when they do ask and that's still adding up to be less than other shops without shipping. It's lame, sure but not really something to complain about given the price you end up paying. 

[Lolicon]

Repeatedly paying for something in full and then being charged extra at the last minute before you're allowed to get your item is either incompetence or an intentional (and sleazy) business tactic.

I decided to be generous and called it the former.

[Slave IV]

I've made most my preorders for hundreds of items in the last couple years at NY. I've been asked to pay extra maybe three times, totaling less than $20. If they suck so bad, I wonder why people who complain keep ordering from them?
