Another custom I made, from a Max VF1A DYRL 1/60 v1

I molded the head, made the antennas mobile, and repaint the whole body to make jack Archer's

Good job!

Of course, you could be shot on here for what some might refer to as "desecrating" a Yamato to make an RT valk. Oh well, like I said, it's a cool custom in my book.

Thanks !

I know that, but it's the only RT I got in my vf-1 collection... and I was bored of all this white with color stripes or blue, red and light brown valks in my v1 part of collection... so I choose to be sacrified and post it there anyway :D
