nightmareB4macross Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 (edited) I was looking at my valks today and decided there was something missing from the VF-0, that the other VF-1(s) have. I couldn't quite picture it. Then it hit me. All the VF-1(s) I have have color matched side covers that make the valks look heftier in Battroid mode. So I figured I would make them for the VF-0. Well here they are. Let me know what you guys think. BTW - Just to let you know, the regular VF-1 side covers don't fit in the VF-0. NEW SIDE COVERS IN ZERO WHITE. Note: The VF-0 side covers hide nicely behind the chestplate. No glue required. Covers slide into place just like that of the VF-1.

EXO Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 is that a monster with no pants on? I mean that thing next to the VF-0 haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MechTech Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 The covers do look better. - MT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowe Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 The Vf-0S definitely looks better with side covers. I lengthened your side cover just to see if it makes any difference. We might have to rely on you to make the side cover if Yamato does not commit themselves to make a VF-0 armour..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So this is the final that I like much better. The side cover hides nicely behind the chestplate and stays well tucked in to place. I am actually setting the molds as I type. Thanks for the comments guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowe Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Do you think a white side plate would look good? I tried to photoshop the white, but to my surprise, it didn't look that good (could be my photshop skill not good enough to create shadow in white) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The color is different from the 1/48s. These are in grey, just so I can see the custom job and how it would look. BTW - I've seen your skills at PS and they are much better than mine.

Mowe Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 (edited) Thanks for the kind words, but I prefer your casting ability...he..he...I really should get back to those photoshop projects, now that the World Cup is over Keep us informed when they are ready for order. EDIT: just a question, how are they snap onto the VF-0S or are they in experimental stages at the moment with glue?

ruskiiVFaussie Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Umm, whats the chance of side covers being introduced when they get the battroid r/armor set up for the VF-0 anyways? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
