For a sec I thought you were saying that a smaller version of the cockpit was being done......

Looks like a toynami VF-1...

Took some pics for this scene.... Thought this background might work.... Also thinking ahead with this one....but haven't thought about what to use for a background.....was thinking some hanger or large warehouse pic.... Finally.....was thinking of combining HMR and Toynami regults for this scene......Staging for the assault on South Ataria! I would need to dig out my Toynami small/large missile regults....unless SH9000 has them out already.... Maybe a background like this, think it matches the anime scene well.....was trying to search for backgrounds for south pacific islands but couldn't find anything that matched....will try to find something better.....

From Episode 2: Countdown....As seen on TV! Excellent work once again!

looking good..... I wonder if shrinking the toy pic a little more will help it scale better with the background buildings, especially those behind Roy.... Or, based on the reference pic from the show....maybe just tighten up the shot? you are right...his arm was blown away.....the devil is in the details!

heheh...the bigger you are the bigger the problem....

If you want me to retake/reframe/reposition the shot let me know....thanks!

same here

Good tips! I'll keep those in mind when taking pics for this project. I guess it also depends on the shot being worked on too. How's that KIA Zentran pic coming along?

Cool......these two should help vlenhoff do this one..... I think this background would be perfect for the CF commander pic......

Ok....we can stick to episodes 1 and 2 for now.....I'll take some pics of some CF's in these poses and find some backgrounds to match.....

And that one is indeed 100% Hikaru....

You'd let Misa sit on your lap too...

Wow...you're good! I didn't even realize that you added the clear canopy to the VF-1D until you brought it up....and yes, now I see Hikaru! Starting to figure out what scenes from Episode 3: Space Fold would be cool......I'm thinking Megahouse TV SDF-1 + pic of ocean/city, maybe space + effects to get this scene...

The HMR GBP is actually not "Hikaru's" GBP....it is technically the GBP as it appears in DYRL (Bandai got the missile tip color wrong) which is piloted by an unknown pilot....

Brilliant! Awesome effects too! Hope you are able to do the one with the dead Zentran!

No worries....don't recall seeing that particular illustration.... It can be posted in the Macross Art Appreciation thread: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/32816-character-art-appreciation-thread-iii/

Nice illustration...but not valid for what this thread is about.... " Recreate a scene from each of the 36 episodes of SDFM using toys and kits (Macross toys/kits and other accessories)....the gimmick.....superimpose the shots with real backgrounds or art found on the webs"

It's only number one on your request list..... http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/37124-kurisamas-custom-160-upgrades-add-ons/ Perhaps it's time has come.....

OK....how about episode 2: Countdown..... Can you take these pics, resize them and do your magic with these backgrounds?

Impressive skills! Looks fantastic! Vlenhoff = King of Macross Photoshop This is from Episode 2: Countdown....the scene where Roy is on his way to help Hikaru from himself!

Could any of these be used?

So a pic of a window inside looking out...... Nice work! We should include the episode number/name with the pics posted....or play "name the episode"?

It's not often you capture people willingly getting ripped off on camera!
