Eternal_D Posted March 10, 2004 Author Posted March 10, 2004 Can't hold a gun??? What's it gonna do? scratch it's balls??? lol, well, if it can't hold THE gun, doubt it'll be able to scratch either. the reason I say it probably won't be able to hold the gun is because I'm afraid of the looseness. the way I designed it might be good enough to hold a pose ie, pointing, fists, or flipping off...but might not be sturdy enough to hold the weight of the gun.

DrClay Posted March 10, 2004 Posted March 10, 2004 I'd rather have a DYRL hand that could hold the gun to be honest. it's the LEFT hand hes talking about, except for the skeleton hands out now, NO yammies' left hands have been able to hold a gun! Quote

Sebastian Posted March 10, 2004 Posted March 10, 2004 Well actually the Dyrl hands provided with the toy can hardly hold the damn gunpod... And my valks cant give the finger.... like my PGs. Maybe you can do it in the same way the PG gundams, just add a peg that inserts into the Gunpod handle. It is a super easy job. I prefer poseable... In fact If you sell both, poseable and NOT poseable, I will get them both- Will you finish this time Danny? My regards to your millia! Quote
Toonz Posted March 10, 2004 Posted March 10, 2004 that's a really nice hand! looking forward to recasts! Quote

My regards to your millia! ah, i get yah...like how the arms have those pegs to hold the gunpod in fighter mode. hmm, that might be doable...but I'm afraid the resin peg will break off if it's too small, and if it's too big...it'll just be ugly. won't be able to make it retractable like the PG gundams(too much work ). will have to think more about that. and which millia are you talking about? you have to be just a little bit more specific...shhh...

Uxi Posted March 10, 2004 Posted March 10, 2004 Looks nice. I'd certainly want at least one set... I'm thinking you should do another set in a normal fist type that could possibly fold into the arm if possible... kinda like the 1/60 standard hands... I would also like for my Valk to possibly be a lefty (hold a gunpod in the left pod), as well... I'm envisioning you could keep us happy and make a little something to make it worth your while if you did: 2 x closed-fist DYRL hands that can fold in the arms AND hold a gunpod 2 x posed DYRL hands with trigger finger extended (left and right) 2 x posed DYRL open-hand (left and right) I might even take 2 closed fixed non gunpod holding hands for those boxing matches with pipe wielding Zentraedi.

I didn't scuplt this out of scratch like those crazy ppl from Hobby Japan. the right hand was made from the recast TV hand so all I had to do was shave, add, shave, add. 2 x posed DYRL open-hand (left and right) -this is definitely doable, but reason why I suggested the poseable hands is because I don't want all my valks to have the same stupid posed hand. the poseable hand would relieve all problems of this...if I can do it right. the poseable hands SHOULD be able to accomadate the fist you speak of. but we really won't know until I get started...or rather finish.

Danny, just drill a super small hole, and then crazy glue a brass peg. Same ones you use to assemble the resin model kits. This brassthingies are available in any decent model shop. Quote
Mr March Posted March 10, 2004 Posted March 10, 2004 Brilliant. I'd definitely be interested in getting some of these. Quote
valkyrietestpilot Posted March 11, 2004 Posted March 11, 2004 i definately want a set danny.they are really looking like they'll be nice. Quote
brainiac_08 Posted March 11, 2004 Posted March 11, 2004 when you finish, recast them and tell me about it. I WILL buy a few J.J. Quote
Opus Posted March 11, 2004 Posted March 11, 2004 (edited) I'd definitely like to have a left fist if not both. Fists are essential for GERWALK in opinion. Edited March 11, 2004 by Opus Quote
Powered Convoy Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 That is so sweet! I love it. If and when you do recasts I'll be down for some. Randy Quote
Jawjaw Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 (edited) Those look better than the fat TV hands IMO. Very nice. Edited March 12, 2004 by Jawjaw Quote
bsu legato Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 Awesome work! I hope Yamato is paying attention. I'd definitley want in on any recasting of these. No more skeleton hands for my 1/48! Quote
Skull Leader Posted March 15, 2004 Posted March 15, 2004 I'm definately up for a recasted gun hand when these become available man! (if it would look completely unbalanced with just one custom hand, I can wait for a set though) Quote
kidkorrupt Posted March 16, 2004 Posted March 16, 2004 sup danny never commented on this. saw it in person and it was nice. very precise and even cuts in the styrene. an excellent job. so stop smoking those 555s and finish the other one, lol. Quote
Eternal_D Posted March 31, 2004 Author Posted March 31, 2004 uhm, only update would be I already met with rhoby and said my designs shoudln't be a problem...and that I've been going out too much so haven't worked on my hands much. will start again today! I just found some really good parts I can use. Quote
to177 Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 Very nice D. Will definetly look good on the 1/48 DYRL Valk. Please do recast them! to177 Quote
Toonz Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 I've been going out too much so haven't worked on my hands much. will start again today! I just found some really good parts I can use. go out no more.... you got to finish them soon.... we are waiting.... Quote
Cdr Fokker Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 so...any news on the hands yet? Aww, you got my hopes up. I saw this thread moved back up to the top and thought "sweet, maybe they'll be available soon!" Only to find no news... Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 so...any news on the hands yet? Aww, you got my hopes up. I saw this thread moved back up to the top and thought "sweet, maybe they'll be available soon!" Only to find no news... my bad dude...i just made a post to see if we all could get any news sorry for getting your hopes up though Quote
ChristopherB Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 (edited) I'm far less concerned with whether they retract or not. The entire reason for this thread is because Yamato was forced to make gay limp wristed skinny DYRL hands that could retract. duh! Correction: Actually the 1/48 Yamato hands do not retract, they "fold" back into the forearm. Edited June 21, 2004 by ChristopherB Quote
hirohawa Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 I just hope these get finished and are up for sale soon. Quote
do not disturb Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 darn it! i saw this a while back and thought they'd be up for sale. either way, i'm getting 3 sets when they're finished. Quote
Nani?! Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 shoot I thought these things were done too... wonder if Eternal's still doing it. been 3 months and counting and no word so I dont think we should get our hopes up too much. IF they do come out, I'm down for quatro~ Quote
EXO Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 I should kick him in the balls for you guys, I told him not to post it until he's done. Now he left for Asia for a couple of months on business. It won't be done for a while. I want some also... that bastid! Quote
Skull Leader Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 Silly Harmony Gold-loving bastich, he shall be tied to a chair and forced to listen to "the wiggles" perform "fruit salad" until he pukes Just kidding! I hope his trip goes ok, I want some decent hands when he gets back! Quote
