mighty gorgon Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 Hi folks. After fiddling with textures in the VF-4, I would like to get back to the modeller for a new subject. I have a Yamato VF-11B so I thought that would be a nice model. But, apart from a hi-res profile from these forums I don't have decent 3-Views of the VF... Any help? Directions? Thnx in advance, Gorgon (at low AA) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 I don't know if there are any nice full 3 views of the VF-11.. I'm hoping Hasegawa will release a kit. But I too would appreciate some drawings.. I'm hoping to work on a full Macross fleet for MS Flight Sim. I've got plans for a VF-1, YF-21/VF-22, and maybe VF-4. I'd love to be able to do a complete Mac+ series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty gorgon Posted January 29, 2004 Author Share Posted January 29, 2004 (edited) I've prepared a couple of examples... The leftmost "top" is a photo of the Bandai instructions, then a line drawing got from the web (I don't have the excat reference with me now), and on the right side a reduced version of Nied's profile... Somehow the Bandai planfor looks OK, but it does not match exactly Nied's profile... In example one I fitted the three drawings using the total length. Several inconsistencies are evident.

mighty gorgon Posted January 29, 2004 Author Share Posted January 29, 2004 (edited) Here I scaled the linedrawing and Nied's profile to get a better match of the front part of the VF-11... Edited January 29, 2004 by mighty gorgon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellohikaru Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 Nied's profile seems to be based on these sets but for my color profiles i added some detail like rudder based on the Club M kit. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty gorgon Posted January 30, 2004 Author Share Posted January 30, 2004 Hope this helps Definitively! Will start retracing again! BTW, that scheme is very nice... Should do it in 3D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
