I’m seriously in disbelief that you’re on a public forum talking trash about your fellow designers in a franchise you both work on. How can you have a job at all anymore as you proudly proclaim you “refused” to work on a sister show? How did Discovery hurt you exactly? I don’t love all of Disco’s designs, especially for the Klingon ships, but I like the Discovery itself. It only takes mild inspiration from McQuarrie. It has a great silhouette. Much better than either alternative you present. You didn’t fix anything. Since you’re criticizing others, let’s talk about your designs honestly. They’re not really original. Your design for the false federation ship is just the NX. Your Nebula class is exactly that. Your cargo ship is messy and its base is a Constellation. All your designs have saucer tops that match the JJ films, not SNW at all. Your pin striping belongs on Refit era ships. You don’t seem to know the show you agreed to work on at all and I can see why almost everything you’ve done has been relegated to the background.

Yes, it's clear in the original Japanese text that he is talking about the old version being left in battroid pose the entire time and that's probably why the joints have weakened.
-
Legit or not, there’s no way in the world I’d do that. Giving that information out to strangers on the internet, with no idea of how secure their data storage is or how long they will keep it for, is insane. That is serious identity theft waiting to happen.

Pre-orders for AMT Predaking going up in August. That combined mode look winner and there is also some good articulation to be had. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/792414

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!

Been a while since I've been to this thread - how many keyboards have you gone through, Seto? 🙂 -
I know it's just X translation. I wonder if he's saying that his older toy has weak joints because it's been on display for a while. I wish he'd clarify if the new version is well made or not.

Ah man, this one hits hard. Another legend gone, RIP Mr. Osbourne.
-
The Osbournes was hilarious, and thinking back how long ago it came out, it was kind of at the forefront for the coming reality TV renaissance. I loved that show, it felt like getting to grow up with the Osbournes to a degree, seeing this legend just living his life, constantly picking up little dog turds and getting subtitled every time he speaks, good times, RIP Oz.
-
Besides being known for his music Ozzy was funny af for his reality and live performance shows. RIP
-
He died as he lived. There will never be another like him.
-
PUTAQUEPARIU.... Black Sabbath's last show was truly his last. Thank you for the iconic songs from my rock life.
-
Holy crap this sucks, RIP to an absolute legend. Whether it was Sabbath or Ozzy solo, the man was a rock legend and brought me countless hours of joy with his music. Once again, RIP to a legend, he will be missed.

In the air tonight. -
Well I checked Nin-Nin's FAQ, and it seems legit... I suppose this order broached some kind of limit.
-
?? It’s been a couple years since I ordered from Nin Nin, but they’ve never made me jump through any of those hoops. Assuming everything’s legit, maybe fraud has been a problem for them recently?

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
pengbuzz replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
The one overriding problem with a PMC vs. a Zentraedi force is that even the smaller Branch Fleets consist of thousands of ships. The larger Main Fleets are composed of millions of vessels, and all of these fleets have some pretty heavy weaponry that comes with them, both ship-mounted as well as launched mecha/ fighters (As @Seto Kaiba has pointed out in previous posts). Given that UN Spacy/ NUNS has had one hell of a time even defeating a smaller fleet in times of crisis and that most PMC's are not all that large or well-equipped as NUNS, I seriously doubt that they would do much to "hold the line" against much except a small rouge force of malcontent Zentraedi or pirates. -
Good! BTW: We've been trying to reach you about your Valkyrie's extended warranty.
-
Yeah, the Glaug is really coming along nicely there, Papa Rat! What matters here the most is enjoying what you're doing; that translates into how the model comes out in my opinion. With all the grief many of mine suffer, I think they could use a drink or two! O.o
-
That’s the great thing about the hobby, keep it fun.
-
I'd also recommend Vice Principals on HBO, there's only two seasons, but they're pretty damn funny. McBride and Goggins again, they work well together.
-
@Big s @Gabe Q @Thom Thanks. I was planning on hand painting the whole thing but fell back into the airbrush routine. I still have sooooo much to learn about airbrushing and hope to develop my own style esthetic eventually. Time will tell. I still have lots of details and masking to do on the Glaug along with panel lines, decals, washes etc… it’s a fun one so far.

Greetings @everyone Now that most of the 1/48 PHAT LYNX orders have been shipped, I'd be curious to know if there would be sufficient interest to offer the (blue) PHAT LYNX variant with the alternate head seen in the anime? I would offer just a few examples of this kit (5-8 maximum) just enough to complete the mold cycle. It would consist of the same body parts/weapons load-out as the existing PHAT LYNX, but with the old head searchlight replaced with the alternate camera head. Please note that the new head is not being offered separately on its own, but as a complete kit only. Can I get 5-8 people out there to commit to this project? Please DM me to ket me know, thanks

I paid for my Tread order on the first days of the month so far no new mails from them. I'd try contacting them directly first to know it is legit. Had some few oders from them in the past and weird issues so far.
-
Uh.... what? That's uh.. really wild. I've ordered from them several times in the past, but nothing like that has ever happened. The only time I've ever seen that rigorous of an ID process used was for getting my driver's license renewed.
