X-Man III Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 This is my first post: X-Man III presents: LEGO VF-01 Valkyrie Perfect Grade 1/44 For all peoples that love Lego!!! A long long story.... Macross/Robotech saga is the best anime/cartoon that I ever seen; when I was young I have a lot lego and I said:"Could I create a VF with lego??" Five years ago I start this adventure, but, for time and other, I never finish... Two years ago I decided to restart the model (that was awful..) and now I have my greatest VF-01. Software and models. Based on my Yamato 1/48 VF-1J model, I build my lego valkyrie with all new bricks that I discover on e-shops, lot of that are very cool and smooth. The result is very close to Yamato model and I very proud to do the possibility at everyone to build my model. It's very simple: 1. go to my brickshelf gallery (below) and download *.mpd file (I have made some colour schemes). 2. go to ldraw.org and download all packages for MLCAD and other app (remember to download also the UNOFFICIAL PARTS list to have ALL lego bricks). 3. open the *.mpd file of Valkyrie and set VIEW MODE (instead od edit mode) and see all step-by step instructions. 4. you can make a list of all bricks from MLCAD to assembly. 5. go to Bricklink.com to buy all bricks that you missed.... 6. ...and enjoy yourself!!! Images and gallery. I have a little gallery on Brickshelf where there are some rendering images of vf-01 that I created. Render images are made with Pov-Ray, I'm a n00b with rendering but with bit more of experience.... You can see at this link!! Lot of Idea but not time... I'm always at unversity but I have a lot of idea about lego and Veritech... On my plain there is a project about VF-17 Nightmare and YF-19 Excalibur and the Elintseeker VF... Maybe in the future! And other modfied will arrive to improve the VF-01!!! finally, some pics!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiriK Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 wow.... Welcome to the Boards.... i've seen a Lego Jetfire somewhere before. But i don't think i've ever seen Lego Fast Packs.... NICE JOB!!! i'm a big Lego fan so i might try this out someday. Is it variable on its own? or do you have to replace parts to transform it?

promethuem5 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Fighter and GERWALK modes looks amazing. The shoulders in Battroid mode are funky, but probably unavoidable... I'd also like to know how long this took to design. The armor is great too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

X-Man III Posted November 7, 2005 Author Share Posted November 7, 2005 (edited) Nice job. How long did it take you to make? 342575[/snapback] With instruction set it's very easy to build... 2-3hours to complete all I think... Eheheh, now I'm on Arcadia's model (Cap Harlock ) and the YF-19...urgh very difficult to make with Lego, trasformation is too hard... Shoulders.... They aren't good, it's one of four particulars that I don't like and in future I'll modify. Edited November 7, 2005 by X-Man III Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JELEINEN Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 (edited) I like it. I think the nose could be sculpted a bit more and the arms are kinda odd. Have you thought of using the rounded A-wing cockpit cover instead of the X-wing one? Here's another valk someone just posted on Brickshelf: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=153337 Edited November 11, 2005 by JELEINEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
