JEXPRIME Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 [attachmentid=38760]I got an extra set of GBP armor so I decided to desk it out on my AB. Problem was it took away the cool color scheme so i tried a custom. Just alittle Krylon Fusion flat white,Safety red, and Patriot blue and there you have it. I hop yall like it. One question: Since the Ab is a show Valk, I thought I should leave all the heavy missles off...good or bad idea?[attachmentid=38756][attachmentid=38758][attachmentid=38759] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoBe-Patt Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 take pictures with the shoulder missles on, then we can decide. Did you paint the should missles too? Anyway, good job on it. I like it, it matches very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechamaniac Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Nice work! Looks a little shiny, I think I'd hit it with a little dullcoat to tone down the gloss, but other than that, it looks really nice. Either the gloss paint is throwing off the image, or the red doesn't look like it covered completely in some spots. Leave the missiles in. It would be cool to get some decals that say FIREWORKS or something for each missile. The GBP would make one hell of a fireworks display launcher.

bigkid24 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Oh crap don't give Yamato anymore ideas for the GBP. It looks pretty cool though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drifand Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 My first thought was: Joons Clown Custom! But seriously, good job :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 (edited) I think you should fill back in the black on the circles (I have no idea what they're called but they're on the thigh pieces and the side of the chest). I also think the shoulder missiles are very necessary. This thing screams out for custom decals too! PS - I think they're also might be a little too much white going on. The Valk actually has a fair amount of color as far as valk paint jobs go. I like the idea of it though and you get major props for modifying such an expensive product!

nightmareB4macross Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I agree with Jenius, it has a little too much white. The side profile makes the chest appear larger than the regular blue GBP-1S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Excillon Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I actually like it the way it is. Not real flashy...simple, yet sharp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
