Mr March Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 I love the idea. I would really like to see such a page on Macross World. Quote
Bloodcat Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 Sounds nice. Id like to see a customs gallery. Model customs too. I don't really have anything impressive for either though, but I love seeing the work of others. Its inspiring and depressing at the same time! Quote
DatterBoy Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 (edited) Love the idea. that way I won't have to hunt for the posts when I wanna see one of them. I recommend that if you do, you define the numbe rof shots for submission as wellas the angels of view so you can define a standard. :Dat Edited February 23, 2004 by DatterBoy Quote
GobotFool Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 (edited) yay! Though shouldn't this have been a poll topic? Edited February 23, 2004 by GobotFool Quote
Graham Posted February 23, 2004 Author Posted February 23, 2004 Hey Graham. Great idea! Can we add a JM custom category? Or maybe a misc. category to tie up the loose ends for toys. Err....what's a JM custom? Graham Quote

I recommend that if you do, you define the numbe rof shots for submission as wellas the angels of view so you can define a standard.:Dat At the begining, I'm just going to be searching through old posts and saving any pics I find, which I'll then resize as needed. As I mentioned earlier, if anybody wants to help me search, I'd appriciate the help. However, for future submissions, I'd like say a minimum of 6 pics (2 per mode) and a maximum of 12 pics (4 per mode) to keep it manageable. Pics should be no smaller than 600 pixels width and no larger than 1000 pixels width. I'll also need a thumbnail of each pic, with a width of 100 pixels. Graham Quote
bigkid24 Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 No, this is a horrible idea. I like the idea of searching for great customs that I saw before. Why have them in one central area?! Just kidding. Well it seems like everybody is cool with the gallery so now it's a matter of customizer getting off their butts to work on stuff. Quote
Anubis Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 (edited) A custom gellery sounds great. It'll net some traffic to the main site, too! Edited February 23, 2004 by Anubis Quote
Isamu Atreides 86 Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 Hell yeah. we have so many awesome customizers here, its almost a shame we didn't have one before!! Quote
Graham Posted February 23, 2004 Author Posted February 23, 2004 Well, I've just searched through the 8 pages of the Toy forum and found 6 threads with custom toys, so I'll start with those and we'll see how it goes from there. Graham Quote

Graham For future submissions, to whom should we send our pictures, G? Quote
Eternal_D Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 no it sucks! j/k!!! that's a freakin beautiful idea!! Quote
Skull Hunter Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 "Fantabulous!!!!!!!!!!!" quote by Big Gay Al on southpark. Right on. Need to get crackin' on those customs. Why does regular life have to interfere with Macross World and all things Macross? Why! Why! Why! Oh, well, gotta live with it. Quote
Graham Posted February 23, 2004 Author Posted February 23, 2004 For future submissions, to whom should we send our pictures, G? PM me if you have a submission and I'll give an email address to send the pics to. I'll make sure to include some submission guidelines when I create the page tonight. Graham Quote
fifbeat Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 Yeah, a static custom VF page is a great idea. I'm going to try and design a "Battle Royale" (anyone seen that movie?) VF. Gonna use the BR logo and everything (and I'm probably going to jack up one of my valks in the process.) Quote
Graham Posted February 23, 2004 Author Posted February 23, 2004 JOKE MACHINE ----- JMShame you didnt know. Ya mean those squat little ugly round things. Nah, nobody would be interested in seeing those, at least nobody with any taste. Ducks for cover. Graham Quote
Valkfan Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 This is a great idea Graham! Viewing customs by Jung, Rosario, RTH and Kid K were what brought back my interest in Macross a few years ago. I am thankful that we'll finally be able to look at several custom Valkyries like we were able to a few years ago. Well, until Bandai and Yamato valks flooded the market. I was getting tired of seeing collection after collection of mass produced valks. Now it's time to get to work on those customs! RJ Quote
Graham Posted February 23, 2004 Author Posted February 23, 2004 OK, just uploaded the public debut of the Macrossworld Member Custom Toy Gallery. Please check it out and let me know if there are any broken links or other problems. Lots more custom toys to upload, but it's 10.30pm here, I'm knackered and I haven't eaten dinner yet! Oh, also finished my extremely late Yamato 1/60 VE-1 & VT-1 review as well. I've been a busy boy. More updates tomorrow. Graham Quote
DARTHTODD Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 Looking great, nice to see some updates being done in the review department also! Quote
tom64ss Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 Wow. I missed one weekend and come back to this. Cool idea Graham. Its off to a great start. Quote
EXO Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 Here's some more links to some customs threads G. In case you didn't find them Kurt's enigma Jung's CF Jung's CF + FP Quote
Jawjaw Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 It's great that you are doing this Graham. Quote
ChristopherB Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 Graham, This has definitely been a long time coming, and I appreciate your initiative. As the unofficial "Custom King," I just want to say "Thank you!" Of course, I may have to cede my title to Gene, since I sold him a few of my customs last year, but I still have plenty, with more in the works. As I've been saying for years, I'll take a (1) custom over (5) standard mass production valkyries any day of the week. Sincerely, Christopher Quote
hirohawa Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 Definately good idea. It would be great for all to view as well as serving as inspiration to all customizers out there. Quote
Godzilla Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 thank you, thank you Yeah! What he said. Quote
