Saburo Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) Ok, finished up the photo session with the VF-25S Armored. I had forgotten how finicky Gerwalk mode was and how the crotch barely holds, one slight move and it collapses without the support piece in Battroid mode. Well, here is a photo drop of Gerwalk and Battroid. Hope you all like them Edited November 16, 2015 by Saburo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scyla Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Ok, finished up the photo session with the VF-25S Armored. I had forgotten how finicky Gerwalk mode was and how the crotch barely holds, one slight move and it Valk collapses without the support piece in Battroid mode. Well, here is a photo drop of Gerwalk and Battroid. Hope you all like them *snip* Gorgeous photos Saburo. Regarding the crotch support. I wonder why Bandai didn't engineer a prong that folds down from inside the crotch plate/fuselage section to hold it in place. I kinda understand it with the Armored versions since I assume that the armor set was designed after the Renewal Valkyries. If the frist few releases hadn't sold well I'm certain that Bandai would not have released the add-on sets or any additional Valkyries. So they probably where surprised that the Valkyrie could not stand on its own without additional help so the threw a few support pieces into the bag. The same goes for the piece that holds the legs together in Fighter-Mode Where I don't get it is for the Super VF-27 that has the same exact problem with the same filler piece solution. I guess it is a case of good enough. Maybe in a few years Arcadia (if they still exist) is able to to get the Frontier license. Imagine how gorgeous the Armored Messiah would look with a matte finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine how gorgeous the Armored Messiah would look with a matte finish. Thank you Scyla. The crotch piece was being a pain. I have the Armored VF-25 on display in battroid mode and I use Bandai Battroid support piece along with Yeti piece to function as a mini stand. For the photos I wanted to have the Valk to stand on it own. The clips that hold the folded over and the main crotch hinge part would not hold in a straight standing postion, but would hold in hunched forward stance, which looked weird. So rather then get frustrated fighting with it, I just used the mini stand which you can see in some of the pictures. Not ideal but it will have to do. An Arcadia matte finished Armored Messiah would be awesome, but imagine the price... I hate you, Saburo! Hahaha! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightCastle Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Yeah. It was the first part of section 2.1 that is why I was concerned for the selling of the book. I quoted the part of the section below: 2.1 Who owns What? Because of the nature of photography and the business of photographing other works of art, most people become confused from the entanglement of the photo itself and its contents. These two are entirely separate animals; the photographer owns the copyright to the photo, regardless of the subject of the photo. So, while you (as the photographer) may have the right to license the photo to someone (because it is yours), the use of that photo may be restricted because the subject (the statue) is copyrighted by someone else. This is very similar to that of photos of people. If this concept is new to you, read Model Release Primer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am well acquainted with lawyers and you can never be too careful in matters related to properties and the entities involved. While I would really love to see your pics become the book that you and others have described, I wouldn't want to see you suffer any negative repercussions due to legality. Take care and here is hoping you are able to make it happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derex3592 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Got a chance to panel line and sticker up my VT-1. I had forgotten the premium Yamato releases came with better sticker sheets where you did not have to painstakingly trim all the stickers before you put them on to make them look good, so this one didn't take me very long at all.
