lordmasterprince Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Hello everyone, I am new to this forum . I am amazed by all the fine customs by the members around the world. This is my humble attemp to do a recolour of the 1/60 GBP1S,which I did not see any member that has done custom on. (Or was I looking at the wrong place?) Anyways,here it is. Any comments are wellcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Very nice. Yours is the first 1/60 GBP custom that I have seen so far. Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 oooh, scary, just last night I was messing with my CFs and I thought it'd be neat if someone did a custom GBP for them... it's like you read my mind. Very nice detail work, how does the valk look without the armor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just dirty it up a bit since just very little part of it will be showing.(lazy,lazy..) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordmasterprince Posted January 4, 2006 Author Share Posted January 4, 2006 Just picked up 2 sets fo 1/48 GBP last night. At least one of them will be for repaint. Currently still brainstorming on colour theme. Any cool ideas ??? Currently I have these VF1 on hand and cannot make up my mine which ones should be wearing the GBPs? : DYRL red/black VF1S, DYRL red/black VF1A, yellow/black VF1S, Hikaru VF1J Suggestions, anyone???

kanata67 Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 nice custom. I plan on making an anti gbp-1s soon. By that I mean as in the oiginal gbp it seemed suited for max, so everywhere it's red I'll make blue and everywhere it's blue I'll make read and my max and milla will sit side by side. Granted I have to do it 1/55 style but I still think it will be cool. It's how I plan on doing the pawns of my chess set... once I aquire the 1 crusader I need to complete it. 15 crusaders in a box of battletech bought by weight... why couldn't there have been 16 I also want to do a camo gbp-1s at some point... either urban or artic, I haven't decided which yet. Then there is the musha gbp-1s I'll be doing once I feel confident enough scratch building and recasting. I love musha armor but would rather drill holes in resin gbp than a valk. oh, oh... maybe a gbp seeker? No idea what purpose it would serve but it might look cool. Not like a gbp boosters were good for anything but jumping. Heck... I'll just get the shoulder missle launchers for all my 1/55's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got most of the rest. If you are really stuck send one over to me and I will get my old boss to cast you one He makes centrifuge casts in lead and silver.

baronv Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Nice. After all the hoo-ha going on 1/48s, I still prefer the 1/60 for best scale with other Macross toys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grayson72 Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 (edited) Here's some ideas, I always thought the red one was cool. Looks like the last one I posted you just did, the VF-1S version looks kinda green but if it was black and white with yellow accents that would look pretty bitchin' Edited January 4, 2006 by Grayson72 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking doing a dark grey with yellow chest for VF1S. But the thing with dark colours scheme is it hides a lot of details of the piece (holes ,panel lines,etc). I also have another weird idea of a repaint in SF3D(Ma.k) style. Just has a feeling that the design of GBP can somehow fits into the SF3D world.......

jenius Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 "I used my sixth, maybe my seventh sense" - supertroopers Somehow I sensed that a CF GBP-1 was going to be made and i misinterpreted this psychic phenomenon as my own inspiration. Seriously, I wish I had any modeling skill... I have plenty of inspiration running around in this head of mine... either that or I'm still reading minds.
