grebo guru Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 The VF-3000 Crusader. I've always been interested in it, ever since I saw the images of the "Advanced Valkyrie" in one of the old Studio Nue Entertainment Bibles. I was glad to see a cleaned-up image in the the Kawamori Design Works book, but I hate the new gunpod! The old one was much cooler looking, so I swapped it back in. Also, I'll be doing alternate heads, and here's one already. More to come. Grebo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wldr Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Nicely done. Are you planning on coloring in this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zinjo Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I always felt that the VF-3000 was the inspiration for the Macross II VF-2SS. Several design similarities between the two... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketchley Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Which version are you referring to here? The one for Advanced Valkyrie, or Macross M3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zinjo Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I am not sure what the differences are between the advanced valkyrie and the M3 versions I've not seen them side by side. The similarities are mostly in the fighter and GERWALK modes as opposed to Battroid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CdnShockwave Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Well, either way, I still think they're good pix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wldr Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Good to hear Grebo. Keep up the good work, I look forward to seeing your next effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grebo guru Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) Okay, I've been doing some coloring. Attached are three versions of the Crusader: left, to right, the first is a close approximation of the color scheme for the original VF-3000 from the aborted "Advanced Valkyrie" project, as shown in Entertainment Bible #6; the other two are close approximations of Millia's & Max's color schemes (I believe) from Macross M3. There's another color scheme for the VF-3000 in EB#6 as well, but it's really really ugly and lame, so I didn't bother with it. Annnnyway, here y'all go. More later!
