regult Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 I found this randomly and not sure if it has been posted before, since it's a Japanese blog, I guess the guy is in Japan. I like the color scheme, not so much the liberal use of decals for the callsign # I think it looks better than the supposedly anime accurate green!

big F Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Looks like I'd expect a cannon fodder version to look like. It looks good but needs to look more "used" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Not really.. generally speaking the only place you ever see a used cf is in the middle of a debris field, in pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regult Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 eh...there was no field to be seen in MacrossF really, the only badly worn valk we see in the field is Brera's -27 at the end of the series. I don't count the numerous incidents with Alto, he must have destroyed quite a few white F's. Back to this custom, I really like the color, much better than green.

Although I like the green it does remind me a bit of the begining of Robotech you know where they used the footage from Southerncross (correct me if im wrong) of the green valk gerwalk firing a gun. The CF colours are so much more Macross, Even if you do generally see the CF as a bullet magnet or stuck to the end of an exploding missile.

I really hope Hasegawa will give an option to build a tan VF-1A w/ their new 1/48 Valk just to give Tan's some love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electric indigo Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 The CFs we see in episode 2 are also a more greenish yellow than olive green, so the color is not too far fetched. Was there ever an official illustration of the VF-25 CF? I don't think they have the black and white chest stripes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueMax Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 (edited) In the anime, I don't remember the VF valks being green.... more like standard CF colors to me, which I think this rendition does pretty well Edited February 11, 2010 by BlueMax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duymon Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I am going to pick up some more 25g's to customize into these. Seriously the only required change is using a regular gunpod, which i have a few from my RVF's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
