VFTF1 Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Oh...other wise the proportions don't work? Well - the only 1/60 I have is the ELINT seeker - which I love - but I don't really wanna hunt down another Max.... Boo ...are you saying I can't use my 1/48s with my Quid Rau?? That's sad.... guess I'll just have to splurge and get...err...Miria 1/48? VFTF1
misterryno Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 Well...out of all that I have too choose from here is one I decided to keep for my collection. The 1/60 CF with GBP armor. It's pretty bad a**...I have actually considered supergluing the armor together so that it will stay on with no problems.
Jeremy007 Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 you are right...an armored CF looks awesome.

misterryno Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Ignacio Ocamica said: Another armored CF Very nice....Is that Ia 1/48 scale? It looks like it...I cannot pose mine really since the legs on the 1/60 blow so bad.
Ignacio Ocamica Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Yes, it's a 1/48 It's more posable than the 1/60 ver. Both scales are a definite must have

misterryno Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Here's some pics of my CF with the partial FP's...thanks to ruskiiVFaussie I realized that the partial FP's look even cooler than the whole deal...enjoy
ruskiiVFaussie Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 heh heh looking good mannnnnnnnnnnn. oi, place that backpack flap down properly

Mog Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 (edited) A few years back, MW member, Lordmasterprince, did a wicked custom job on a 1/60 GBP-1S and VF-1A. Here's a link to the custom gallery: Link. (It's about 3/4 of the way down.) Always wondered why Yamato never released a "brownie" GBP paint scheme. Heck, I'm surprised there aren't more 1/48 or 1/60 GBP custom paintschemes out there too. I know Kurt did a cool custom 1/48 GBP-1S paintjob awhile back, as well. But other than these two examples, I can't think of any others I've seen on the boards. Edited October 31, 2007 by Mog

That is a good question you raise though......why has Yamato not released a CF version of GBP armor or SS parts?

jmaslm Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Thanks. I saw that one the other day. I'm ultra paranoid about out of box stuff for some reason. I have a strong feeling the CF will be rereleased though so one day ...
misterryno Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Here is another place to get a PRESTINE BOXED CF MW Trade/Sale Forum
VFTF1 Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Nobody seems to appreciate Woody - but I like him... and the 1/48 doesn't look bad alongside the QR....in fact I think it looks better than the 1/60 next to it - 1/60 looks too small... VFTF1
ruskiiVFaussie Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 (edited) Q-Rau 1/60 is supposed to be huge. ;p Not supposed to equate to the 1/48 scale, just the 1/60's. That's a small Meltran chick lol. Edited October 31, 2007 by ruskiiVFaussie

Jeremy007 Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 wow..that 1/60 GBP-1S and VF-1A is a great looking custom. somehow i missed it when i was looking at the galleries.
misterryno Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 VFTF1, I appreciate your Woody.....Wait.....that came out wrong
miriya Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Hopefully his wife does too. And hopefully it comes out right. I ought to stop it.

VFTF1 Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 she appreciates the woody, but doesn't understand it - "after all, isn't it just the same as the black one, but with a different head," she asks all the time... VFTF1

Forgot about JEXPRIME's unique Angelbirds-schemed GBP custom. My bad. To VFTF1, just imagine if they released the woody as a YF-19 (with "accessories")!
misterryno Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 My newly panel lined 1/48 CF and FP.....see more pics here.
misterryno Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Jeremy007 said: very, very nice! it looks great like that! Thanks....that makes me feel better....this is my first "custom" job of ANYTHING. I was thinking everyone would think it sucked. LOL

Your gamer than me (for now atleast) i tried my hand at panel lining on an old 1/100 VF-1S Arri i think it was and totally stuffed it up lol, no matter which way i tried it it seemed to come out too dark, or just not neat enough, and i'd never try it on a 1/48, i'd probably buy a separate Valk to do that. My custom Valk that i will get professionally done will have panel lining though. Looks good dude! Have to say i LOVE that pose too. Keep it up!!!!!!!!!!!!! Edited November 1, 2007 by ruskiiVFaussie

THANKS I mentioned, in the other post I have with the rest of the pics for this guy, that I really like the penciled panel lines but I think that the darkness of the bolder black panel lines gives it a more cartoony feel.

So what did you use to panel line the one in the pics? A pencil or something else? I'm confused
