All you're missing is an Alaska Base VF and you'll be solid. The All the grey VF-1A is the VF-X correct?

I thought Yamato only released that in 1/48 scale? Thanks! No, the grey VF-1A is the VF-X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You put the double stripes on the non-centered head lasers too and even managed to get the curved line on the circular part.

All Bandai had to do was print a few more (major imo) details and it would have really made the HMR 0S stand out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slave IV Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 A perfect example of not trusting any image you see on the internet to judge colors of anything.😉 Unless you know how the image was processed and have a properly calibrated monitor for that image, it won't do anything but frustrate people who are particular about color matching.

Big s Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 20 hours ago, sh9000 said: The other issue is the colors in the anime. The darker colors are the shadow and if you look at the areas where it’s lighter it matches better. Anime and comic lighting ccolors are pretty confusing and Bandai probably matched the lighter orange rather than the darker. The tan parts should be less yellow and more gray brown though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slave IV Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Yeah, it's just always funny to me that people are using different monitors, differently lighted subjects and different frames of animation or other source material with no idea what processing or degradation there is to those sources to compare or often criticize the color of some toy. Its just a peeve of mine since properly calibrated monitors and reference source material is a basic need for any significant color criticism. I just like to enjoy cool pics like above and leave the color issues to color scientists with the proper resources. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolicon Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 I prefer to have the actual toy in hand to make a worthwhile evaluation of the color and anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave IV Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Having the toy in hand is pretty key. But at that point, I'd rather just enjoy the toy than try to match its colors with uncertain and inconsistent source materials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
