zanderwitaz Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 (edited) This is my first custom valk. Hope you all like it! It took me about 3 days to completel. It started as an extremely yellow jetfire. I took the whole think apart, sanded every piece, and then sprayed it with testors flat white (excellent paint). all the details and markings are hand painted. had to paint the windsheild details too. oh and the numbers on the wing are hand painted.

ghostryder Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 (edited) What you have there is a custom DYRL Max VF-1S with the wrong number For a hand-paint, that's awsome. Most of the guys on this board are airbrushers, but I'm in the hand-paint/rattle can crowd. Great job and good choice on your first custom, and keep 'em coming! Oh lookey - correct chest stripes Edited July 14, 2006 by ghostryder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big F Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Great job There see all you Air brushers, rattle cans and brushes still work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skull-1 Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 (edited) I don't even know HOW to use an airbrush. LOL Hooray more Chunky Monkey customs!!!!!!! Sand that nose down to a taper. It's very easy and it looks like the Valks in my gallery. Nice job. Very clean paintjob. I like it. Edited July 14, 2006 by Skull-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoBe-Patt Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 wow, that's one white valk! Yeah, the font of the number is wrong too. Sorry dood, us macross fans are pretty critical about little stuff like that. I see you still have the jetfire sticker on the feet. And the round nosecone makes this max look fat. But overall it's a damn good custom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valkyrie312 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Nice work! I'm a hand painting customizer as well, so I can appreciate the time that goes into one of those. Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LL Cool VF1J Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Dude, thats nice. Besides all the details the others mention, that looks great. You should try and do an evil jetfire. Those seem to be popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big F Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Yup thats one of mine in the pipeline jobs. My bro wants it to go with his normal jetfire. Done the armor so far next the body work I Think. Interspaced by a bit more work on my superposable 1/55. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skullsixx Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Very cool... but what's with those red stripes on the feet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big F Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 Very cool... but what's with those red stripes on the feet? 416475[/snapback] They are the stickers that you get for the Transformer Jetfire. In case you dont know Jetfire is a Fast Pack VF1-S with a blunted nose, it has many of the same stickers the Macross ones have with a few extra Transformers ones.

Oh lookey - correct chest stripes 416232[/snapback] So . . . what is the corect number for a DYRL Max 1S? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Die, Alien Scum! Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 So . . . what is the corect number for a DYRL Max 1S? 416727[/snapback] All three of the Skull Squadron VF-1S valks shown in DYRL are #001. Obviously, Roy was squad leader until Max took over when Roy, Hikaru, Misa, Minmay, and Kaifun were captured by the Zentraedi. Then Hikaru got to be Skull 001 after Max disappeared during his dual with Millia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havent actually seen the original show, I simply love the valkyries. so blame yamato! 416812[/snapback] 013 is the number for Max's VF-1A. His promotion to Skull Leader put him into the VF-1S, designated 001. The same thing happened to Hikaru. His 1A is 011, but his 1S is also 001.
