Beautiful. 

 

Thanks! i actually drew the sky in the back ground. I tried to make it look stormy. Sadly the picture is a bit lacking on lighting, and the camera is from an older phone. I may give it another shot later on, with different valks. 

Got bored, again...

We're NEVER gonna get the other Destriods. I've accepted this.

Then again, i never thought i would have a Monster, or a Glaug. There is still a shred of hope in my soul.

This turned out pretty good. I still need to paint the missile ports/doors black and maybe put some kites on the boosters.

Nicely done!

Indeed! Jetfire was my only “nice” TF and is the reason I collect Macross now. (Though like most Americans, Robotech is why I watched Macross.)

I got Jetfire around 2001. It took me about 17 years to get it, and then I got the chunkey monkey re-releases from Bandai.  Same here, it was a guy at work during the 90's who introduced me to Macross, and explained the Robotech connection to me.  It has been a long journey, but i am glad companies decided to revisit Macross, and realized how many passionate fans there were out there.

It’s the box art from 80’s transformers toys. Indeed it is Jetfire

For many years I stared at this super cool artwork, and I wished for a Valkyrie. 

It is  so cool we can enjoy Valkyries these days.

Someone on FB added the background.

Nice, I missed this somehow. 

Moved around the MHR shelf, after I took some close ups of the nearly naked VE-1 [atmospheric]

They sure could....in "TV' lore the VE-1 ElintSeeker you just posted is called a VEFR-1 "Funny Chinese"

 

 

Wow thanks!

I did try to attach the dish aft the rudders, but it looked out of balance. Like Jenius said, that dish the attached to the latch behind the head passage.

Nice pics @vlenhoff.

Thank you! I wonder if they would use the VF-E in  atmospheric conditions.

I don't think i ever posted these.

I’d happily pose and take pics of Hikaru’s VF-1J in the SDFM opening credits where he does a tumble and fires at the Regults.

if you are going to do that, make sure you use a blue or green screen. It is a whole lot of work, if you don't.

Nice Falcon @vlenhoff.  I still wish I had kept all of my Star Wars figures and vehicles and sold off my unwanted Transformers instead.

Those Kubrick figures in the Falcon look properly sized, lol. I have yet to finish weathering Rey's speeder and the falcon. I must say, even though i have populated the Falcon, it looks way better from the outside.

I gave my original collection to less fortunate kids back in the day. Years later I got an Action fleet Tie fighter, and... well... I have sort of a vehicle addiction now. Funny thing, it is my transformers addiction that has taken a back seat for years now.

Thanks to @vlenhoff for the combined effort.  

Looks good to me.  I’m keeping your animated pic saved to my phone.

With our powers combined! Good, careful attention to the camera angles, well done @sh9000. Thanks, you inspired me! [now if it was shot against blue or green screen... it would make it easier, but it was fun nonetheless]

I might have to set up a blue screen here, and try some more stop motion.

edit in: I also have a copy of it in my phone, lol.

Another angle of the Double Strike Valkyrie

It is got the high beams on! Beautifully shot Saburo!

Ha, now i realize the blue flames are different blues when compared to the animation still. Thanks guys, I am quarantined at home so I am working on all my art projects. I have to say, it would have been easier with a blue screen behind the valk, but meh, i had some time.

Thanks @sh9000 for the still pics.
