Loop Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 Shaorin, I think the mods would be less likely to suspend if you just add a valk to each of those pics lol. Quote
skullmilitia Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 Your really tempting the Ban Hammer man, don't you remember the warning? Quote
dapro Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 Finally got some stands so I can pose my valks! Quote
Shaorin Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) thought i'd add this for the benefit of fellow MWer "Major Tom" who was kind enough to sell me this doll, despite his desire to hold onto her. substituted the original TAKARA JENNY doll body for a vastly superior 27cm. OBITSU brand body, and modified the metal mic to match the look of the one with my CM's figure... Edited July 21, 2013 by Shaorin Quote
plastik Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 (edited) With the flight pose stands arriving I was finally able to setup my DYRL shelves. Next is the Macross Frontier shelves. And before anyone freaks out, yes that window has been tinted. Edited July 22, 2013 by plastik Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 Awesome awesome awesome!! Do you have VF-1S Max with no strike packs because technically, we never saw him use them in DYRL? Quote
Loop Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 (edited) Awesome awesome awesome!! Do you have VF-1S Max with no strike packs because technically, we never saw him use them in DYRL? That's the reason mine does not have strike packs on. I put them on initially,but it felt wrong to me so I took them back off. Edited July 22, 2013 by Loop Quote
connor99 Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 Nice set up there, plastik! Here's hoping Arcadia would wanna re-issue the CF and the T-hawk since I did not have a chance to pick those up. Quote
plastik Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 (edited) Awesome awesome awesome!! Do you have VF-1S Max with no strike packs because technically, we never saw him use them in DYRL? yep that's why I don't have Max with strike packs. It was a tough decision because I have Super and Strike packs on all of them but I wanted to keep it legit. Nice set up there, plastik! Here's hoping Arcadia would wanna re-issue the CF and the T-hawk since I did not have a chance to pick those up. I'm hoping they re-issue a VE-1 Edited July 22, 2013 by plastik Quote
close313 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 I've always wanted to start a collection but had been putting it off for years. WHY didn't I start earlier! For the past two months I've frantically tried to find what I can get after hearing Yamato's gone! I managed to get the full TV Vermillion team, was deciding between that or the DYRL Vermillion team. The deciding factor was that Kakizaki was basically cheap everywhere and I found a Max locally. Got lucky with a cheap 1D at a local flea market, but sadly has a crack on each of the shoulder hinge. For now, I can say I'm officially sick of VF-1's. So here ya go! My favourite mode of all time, Gerwalk w/o hands I still have a 1/60 YF-19 and an incomplete 1/48 Max, but I've kept them since I'm selling them away. Might probably sell off my Hikaru 1S since he doesn't really fit with my 'pearly whites' and I've pre-ordered arcadia's Roy. I'm thinking of getting Gamlin's VF-22s or his VF-17s next though, as I'm tired of buying VF-1 recolours for now. So on with something new! Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Your VF-1J custom is awesome, could you post more pics of it? Quote
Mommar Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 How did you paint that custom 1J? It looks really clean. Quote
close313 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Sure I'll post more soon, just that I'm not finished with it yet. Need to clean up some oversprays and apply details. I only masked and painted the non white areas. I used Mr Resin Primer (the only primer i had that time at home) painted the orange with tamiya spray can and then airbrushed the dark, dark blue(almost black). Then topped it off with Mr Super clear after applying decals. Still its not scratch proof, I've got scratches at the sliding part of the fuselage. Quote
Shaorin Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) I've always wanted to start a collection but had been putting it off for years. WHY didn't I start earlier! on the whole, you should be thankful you did wait. you missed out on a lot of defective, generally crappy (YMMV) VF-1 renditions, dodging plenty of flying lead in the process. you might have gotten on board just a wee bit late, but still on time for the very best variable VF-1 depiction ever rendered in physical form... (also YMMV) also, how much might you be willing to let that Hikaru -1S DYRL go for? Edited July 25, 2013 by Shaorin Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Awesome 1J custom!! great scheme! very original and fits the VF-1 very well! Quote
connor99 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Agreed. That custom 1J looks excellent. Definitely belongs up there with Valkyrie addict's Macross Plus custom 1J. Quote
close313 Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 Thanks for the compliments guys, as requested here's some more pics. Not sure how to resize them so sorry for the pics being too big. Quote
jongrand Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) Here's my collection Edited July 28, 2013 by jongrand Quote
dapro Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) Here's my collection Wow, you fit 9 1/60 valks in that one section of your detolf case, impressive! Edited July 28, 2013 by dapro Quote
erikos0311 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Did some re-arranging with my set-up. Decided to move all my boxes from the bottom shelfs to my closet, gotta make more room for my upcoming T.V. Collection and I think it looks less cluttered over all. Quote
DarrinG Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Looks great - 'less cluttered' is a good thing. I like the idea of the window providing back lighting to the whole case, but I fear that even a little sunlight might be bad for those white-white TV valks over time. Maybe the pulled shade will be enough protection... Quote
plastik Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 im pretty sure erik will get around to tinting his other cases too. I took his tint idea and did my entire window. Quote
Frogze Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Great display pics everyone! Close313 love that custom 1J of yours, the scheme is awesome and your paintjob looks very clean Quote
JET7 Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 why o why i sold these birds.. missed my charaworks Quote
Vepariga Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 (edited) Since I'm out of shelf space I just had to pose mine. (and I cant find the 'Strike a pose' thread) And I'll have to re-take photos of all my Minmay figures. Edited August 1, 2013 by Vepariga Quote
Actar Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 (edited) Finally caved and purchased a VF-17S. I am loving it far, far, far more than I thought I would. Here's my tiny Macross 7 display: ...and here's how it fits into the larger context of my current TV set-up: Edited August 2, 2013 by Actar Quote
