chaff.g Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 This is such a neat color scheme with great tail fin decals that I had to build one. Here's the result.
505thAirborne Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 That is one sweet looking Valkyrie!! Nicely done good sir!
big F Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Looks lovely Also a nice change to see a Valk build that dosent look better with wear and tear.
Duymon Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Now I am inspired to grab my copy of the kit and complete it. That build is so clean and beautiful.
Gabe Q Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 Really nice! It looks like you straightened the legs out. Great job especially on that little detail.
spanner Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 lovely! it would be nice to have a Yamato v2 done in this scheme!
VF-1A Grunt Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 (edited) Wow, I thought I had seen all the VF-1 variations that Hasegawa produced, but I missed this one somewhere along the way. I have the 5 Grand Anniversary, but I'll have to keep my eyes open for one of these. Beautiful job on yours! Edited March 31, 2017 by VF-1A Grunt

The Roll-out is gonna be pricey now since it was limited to a brick-and-mortar store exclusive release in Japan. I paid like double after fees and stuff on YJA years back O_o
VF-1A Grunt Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 Thanks for the info, Duy. That explains why the kit hasn't popped up during my periodic searches on eBay and other sites for Hasegawa VF-1s. I have plenty of kits to keep me busy for years, so no great loss if I can't find one of these.
Mintox Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 I love the idea of 'roll-out' livery. Looks great by the way.
ivorysniper Posted April 20, 2017 Posted April 20, 2017 This is definitely a veeeery rare bird. Getting hands on one of them would take tons of luck (and probably money!. Great job on the build and the decals, btw, and thanks for sharing the pics !!.
chaff.g Posted April 21, 2017 Author Posted April 21, 2017 Thanks for the feedback! The gold and blue is all paint work -- I don't think the decals would have survived the curved surfaces. I found the kit a couple years back on Mandarake for $30 or so. If you keep an eye out for it, it should show up again. I'd really like to see a 1/60 Yamarcadia done up in this scheme, or perhaps its sister paint scheme in red!

hachi Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 I like the colors! What paint do you use with the Hasegawa kits?
