ruskiiVFaussie Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 wtf i only just noticed that! flat black is rather nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicked Ace Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 It is dark grey and any good flat paint will do on this parts paint chipping free lol Tamiya brand Gunship Gray is the exact color for those interested. Flat white looks good too -- I tried it, along with Light Blue (German Airforce). Oh, and Kyp, I took apart my brand new toy and used a combo of 6mm Tamiya masking tape and automotive "blue line" for the curves. I'm not sure what color this one will be next. I'll ruin some toys with my paints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugimon Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 That gray does look very nice. Gives it a much military feel than the bright yellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And could you PRETTY PLEASE take more pics of the fighter mode? -Kyp Edited July 10, 2008 by Kyp Durron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do own an airbrush, but I'm a sucker for the no_cleanup option. As requested, here's a pic taken with only sunlight to illustrate how different the blue Yamato went with can look in different types of light -- a consideration when choosing an accent color.

Always been a fan of that VF-0A Sundowner...some of you dudes have been blessed with talent the rest of us can only imagine. I can only dream of doing to my toys what some of you guys here are able to do. As always, thanks for sharing! OO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacrossMan Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Thanks, but it only looks impressive because they're all clustered together. Clustered or not, impressive nontheless. Please tell me they were only set up on that table for the photo shoot. Looks like too much going on in the background for those gems to be out in the open like that.
