g3173 Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 We'll here's a few photos I found and never got around to posting. These customs are all packed away since my last move and i've been to lazy to unpack and put them together. I really need to get around to taking photos of the Desert Scheme Blue Rose so the squadron can shine in all their glory!!! Someday...
Gabe Q Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Beautiful collection. There's hundreds of man hours of labor sitting there. Very, very impressive...
g3173 Posted June 20, 2008 Author Posted June 20, 2008 (edited) The Best for Last... a few of my beloved 1/55 customs... And Yes for the old timer on this forum... Those are Jung's custom for VFX... Edited June 20, 2008 by g3173
g3173 Posted June 20, 2008 Author Posted June 20, 2008 Not just a custom box... Weathering on the marriage set valks are awesome!!! Never took them out of the box for pix though
g3173 Posted June 20, 2008 Author Posted June 20, 2008 Okay wifie's tellin me to get back to work... i'll see if I can get more up later...
Dante74 Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Goddamn! That's a great collection of customs! I wonder if Kicker will be able to beat it. Get it? Kicker, beat it? ... nevermind.
big F Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Good to see them some of them are familiar others are new to me thanks.
misterryno Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 DAMN!!! CUSTOMS GALORE!!! They are all sooooooooo smooth! GREAT COLLECTION! Do you still own them all?
EXO Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Where did you get that box, I want one The AlphaTeam made that custom box way back when. Nice to see that it went to a good home. One of the guys use to post here a lot, I forgot who it was.
g3173 Posted June 20, 2008 Author Posted June 20, 2008 DAMN!!! CUSTOMS GALORE!!! They are all sooooooooo smooth! GREAT COLLECTION! Do you still own them all? Yeah they're all tucked away in storage with the rest of my customs. That's only about half of my custom collection. Haven't even posted my 1/60 customs. Normally once Jung or Kurt (the artist) ship the valks to me they usually go straight to storage. These were the lucky few that I was able to display. Now that my kids can reach the shelves, i've had to put them away... I think when my 2 year old boy gets a little older, my wife and I will display most of my customs in his room. I just need to see how he is with the new 1/55 re-issues first. Okay now let's see everyone else's custom collection!
dafunguy Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Yeah, I wish I had a custom collection to post! Want to sell me some?
nightmareB4macross Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 g3173, That is a very cool collection indeed. Wish we could see the rest of the collection.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 B-b-b-b--b--b--b-bb--b-bbbbbbbbeautiftul customs!!!!!!!! I especally love the alaskan whatever it is low-vis looklike. That is kick ass. Perfect.

Perfect. I think you're referring to the Enigma.. Yeah that's a great custom. I believe that design is what inspired the Low Vis.
ruskiiVFaussie Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 (edited) Ohh? Enigma, i love it, it's way sexier than the low-vis. I hope Yamato do one for the new 1/60 or 1/48 for sure! If there is ever a non-canon custom that i really love and want it's this one. Thanks g3173. Edited June 21, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie
ruskiiVFaussie Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Hey mate, may i please ask who did your customs?
g3173 Posted June 21, 2008 Author Posted June 21, 2008 Yeah....what he said. I thought about selling a few to fund my other hobbies but I have such a hard time letting go. Plus I don't know if there's much of a market for re-selling customs like the old days....

misterryno Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Plus I don't know if there's much of a market for re-selling customs like the old days.... Not like I could afford them....but I will tell you this.....you could get one hefty chunk of dough for each of those customs....this I am CERTAIN!
g3173 Posted June 21, 2008 Author Posted June 21, 2008 Hey mate, may i please ask who did your customs? At one point I was trying to get a custom from every customizer on the board. Thank god it was only limited to a few guys or I would be dead broke today. Most of these are from Jung. Kurt did a lot of my 1/48's. The 1/55 custom range from KidK, Mlz, a lot of the old time customizers! Not like I could afford them....but I will tell you this.....you could get one hefty chunk of dough for each of those customs....this I am CERTAIN! Hmm I could use another AR-15 or possibly an AR-10... maybe payoff my MP5... so tempting
izzyfcuk Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 im ready for the marriage set if you're letting it go one day..lol
Wicked Ace Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 I requested this thread years ago, literally. Better late than never -- always great to look at.
g3173 Posted June 21, 2008 Author Posted June 21, 2008 Jung did the Enigma i gather? The Enigma's Kurt debut VF custom. Same one on the custom gallery. I kept this in the box for almost 2 years before I took it out. Truly amazing piece. im ready for the marriage set if you're letting it go one day..lol Hmm we'll see.. that's a tough one, but if Emerson can let go of his prized customs then you never no I requested this thread years ago, literally. Better late than never -- always great to look at. I would have posted sooner but it was so hard to post pic back then. It's so much easier with the new system.. Hey Graham here's the 1/55 customs I promised you back in 2004
izzyfcuk Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 g3173 has this max and millia from alpha, who has the vermillion squardon i wonder?
g3173 Posted June 22, 2008 Author Posted June 22, 2008 g3173 has this max and millia from alpha, who has the vermillion squardon i wonder? I never saw their vermillion squadron.. Does anyone have pic? That would be a cool piece to have!
