Seeing Liberalis' posts on his model cars, thought I'd give it a go with my Macross Valkyries. First time using Photoshop quick mask (I think it should be called painful mask), and here's my attempt. Long way to go yet.
Looks like Gundam to me, also looks very good, think the white balance might be a little on the tungsten side, but with some tweaking I think this will looks absolutely perfect
The Moon one is better. It fits better with the background (tho the lighting is from the wrong direction a bit).
Watch your cut and snipping.. 1 or 2 pixes feather will soften the hard edges and then with a little effort with some masking and blurr youc "could" add some jet exhausts.
Thanks for the comments guys. It was good fun playing with Photoshop. Might play with it some more to try out Paul's suggestion with feathering and adding "jet exhaust".
It was Warspite's post that threw me after reading your original post. Is it from be the original series then, or the latter Macross II, Macross Plus or Macross 7?
Well, the Valkyrie design is from the original Macross series, but the paint scheme is a "custom" by the toy manufacturer and never appeared on the series.
We're really showing our true geeky side now, Paul.
