Quintessa

While the more detailed design makes the plane look better I still don’t feel much love for the overall design than I did before.

About the colours in the new render, I think they represent the ones of the actual plastic pieces. Some paint should be applied on some of them. I welcome the perceptible existence of certain amount of grey in the legs, but in general the colour scheme is still too pinkish to my taste.

I can’t stand the fact that the mid wing engines take so much lifting area from the already tiny wings that the only possible way for this valk to fly in an atmosphere would be either at high speed or in gerwalk mode. The VF-27 has much more wing area and the option of folding the tips down for high speed flight.

I guess the clear bits on the chest plate are a silly way to expose the Fold Quartz and show off the new technology. Don’t worry if you don’t like them, from what I can see in the front view of the bigger image Graham posted some days ago, it looks like they will be completely disintegrated by the guns in the leg nacelles.

I think the design is so-so.

Maybe the mid wing engines rotate? Like the EWR VJ 101.

I brought one in Akiba while I was on holiday in early January for 14,000+ yen, I'm very happy with it.

I'm wondering if anyone have this?
