Kurt Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 I'm back to show you my next commissioned custom. I have completely customed a 1/48 VF-1S. This is entirely re-painted. This is actually first of three DYRL VF-1S that I am doing. They will include the Hikaru you see here and a Max and Roy. The Max is just about finished, just have the head to complete. And the Roy is well along in the painting process. And yes, there will be fast packs for them. I wanted to complete the valks first to insure the masking for all the black was consistant. I will then work on all three fast pack sets together. Let me know what you think. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UN Spacy Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Dayaam! Excellent work Kurt.....you make my VF-1S look pale by comparison. The wash and great stickers really make a BIG difference. Now it looks more model than toy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skull-1 Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 Dude, what's up with that gay light-up head visor? It looks like an MPC. BLECK. JUST KIDDING MAN! Nice job! Absolutely gorgeous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 Nice custom. And you did it from scratch? Wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristopherB Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 Beautiful custom! I love the weathering, it's nice to see a valkyrie that doesn't look minty fresh, or have obvious panel lines. Can you tell us who the lucky customer is? I can't wait to see what you do with the fast packs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurt Posted March 28, 2004 Author Share Posted March 28, 2004 Can you tell us who the lucky customer is? The customer is a member here. I will let them decide if they want to be recognized. Thanks for the all the compliments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EXO Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 (edited) Beautiful! EDIT: I just realized they're suppose to be all VF-1Ss... I suck! Edited March 30, 2004 by >EXO< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewilen Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 Looks great! But I'm wondering about the nose blisters--given that they're sensors, shouldn't they be kept clean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicked Ace Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 Nicely done! I especially like the gunpod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anasazi37 Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 So *that* is what Gene and you had up your sleeves when you ordered the DYRL decal sets. I was wondering if you were doing a full repaint or just adding details. Nice work! The fully armored trio is going to be one heck of a sight to behold....

Neova Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 Now that is a nice "stock" Valkyrie! Great job Kurt! Is there an LED in the visor? If so, where did you hide the wiring? I was planning on that same mod to my Hikaru. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just a reflection. Interesting idea though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just a reflection. Interesting idea though. No it' isn't... don't do it Kurt! It's funny how the 1/48 eyes glow better than the MPC's. No batteries required. At least the whole head doesn't light up. The red sensor on the gunpod reflects quite nicely also on the 1/48s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powered Convoy Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 That is one sweet custom! I love the look of the head and of the Fighter mode. Randy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
