  1. Past hour
  2. I guess now that Gainax is no more, Anno and Khara have arrived at the realization they have to actually do work. 😅 This May is Khara's 20th anniversary and their filmography's so thin it makes you wonder what they've been doing all that time. This new Evangelion series is only their second actual TV series project in that entire time. Their total non-Evangelion animation output in 20 years amounts to one movie (Mary and the Witch's Flower), 12 TV episodes (GQuuuuuuX), two 45 minute specials (The Dragon Dentist), a 20 minute video game promo (Gravity Rush), and about three-dozen shorts with ~6 minute average runtime.
  3. Got mine today. FedEx is the most reliable service ind Germany. (I know - everywhere else, it is not). I love the manual. Casually cut off Minmays legs XD
  4. The 24 hour is a decent/nice version on the original artwork (pictured), but it still missed a few key spots if it was meant to reference that OA image. In reference to the OA image (pictured) the point of the visor over the eyes (front of the helm) has a curve or angle that starts earlier in front of the eyes and not right over/above the middle of the eyes, then the line (with a slight downward curve(?)) continues to meet behind the eyes with the bottom part. Also with the top rear part of the sensor casing for the helm... the OA has a slight/subtle curve whereas the 24 hour version is just a straight flat line. The eyes on the 24hr are fairly large in comparison to the OA. The front cover for the V-fin is block on that OA, but it doesn't have that peak and flat spot that's designed on the 24 hr (the OA is appears to just be flat across with no change). I'm sure whoever modeled up the 24 hr version used other artwork references of the Hi-Nu than this OA. I know it's not meant to be an exact version of the reference OA, but it's still a nice take/addon for the MB Hi-Nu

    Hi! How have you been doing?
  7. Nice! Liked that they released the complete (RSC) first and then later a regular Scopedog unlike Yamato, which released a Scopedog first then a month later the (RSC) which only had a red shoulder as a difference, then a month after that the (RSC) with Chirico, and later all the (RSC) armourments again as separate release! At least we got the full experience right away and can chose if we want the this Scopedog or not! but not really missing out if you decide to skip it! From @jenius at annymoon.com
  8. Cynically? Money. I believe Anno also said that when he was done with the Rebuilds, he was pretty much done with the series himself, but he left the door open for other creators to do as they wanted with the Eva Universe, as happens with Gundam. So I suppose this is the first example.
  9. I only clicked on this thread because of Yoko Taro. Otherwise, I'd also be wondering why.
  10. Yeah, water color pencils are fun to use. I haven’t bought the expensive AK ones, but cheap full sets of colors are easily available on Amazon and art shops.
  11. Production of a completely new Evangelion series begins The first news about the production of a brand new "Evangelion" series was announced during the Final Program on Monday, February 23rd (National Holiday), the final day of the "EVANGELION:30+; 30th ANNIVERSARY OF EVANGELION" festival celebrating the 30th anniversary of "Evangelion." Series composition and script by Yoko Taro Directed by Kazuya Tsurumaki and Toru Yatabe Music by Keiichi Okabe Production Studio Khara × CloverWorks https://www.evangelion.jp/news/260223-1/
  12. Hobby Japan Web has a nice article on how to weather a Scopedog model using new weathering pencils, from company AK... Probably a good technique that can be used on the H-Metal R series! 😉
  13. I think both "translations" were already circulating with the original release of the design.
  14. Another Video review of the new Scopedog! Translation from the inside of the box! Episode (02 Uoodo) 22:18 "The warmth I had felt was coming back to me, and I felt as if I was being held by my mother, and before I knew it, I had fallen asleep. The place had a familiar smell to it... All I could feel was the cold, iron-like skin on my hands."
  15. Go Better's stuff has kind of gone downhill. I try to avoid the 3D printed stuff these days, unless it adds something more substantial than gap fillers. I just had TCP ship my stash. It's all DNA kits.
  16. I actually like SS86 Hound. Yeah, he's far from perfect, but as retools of Siege molds go I think his was alright. In other rumors, take all this with the usual salt, but... 1. I'm hearing rumors of a Pulse-exclusive set that will contain Ironhide, Bluestreak, and Mirage. I do NOT know which versions, though I expect that Bluestreak and Mirage will be Earthrise. 2. I don't know if it's going to be an exclusive somewhere or not, since it's not part of the mainline Age of the Primes releases, but expect another release of the Armada Megatron mold as Megazarak. 3. I've mentioned before that Walmart will have an exclusive Energon capsule line. Sadly, it doesn't seem to be based on the Energon/Superlink. The first four releases will be Cybertread ( a retool of Kingdom Slammer), Cybertronic (a retool of Siege Sixgun), Optimus Prime (a blue repaint of Siege Optimus), and Dark Energon Megatron (a black and purple repaint of Miner Megatron). 4. I'd heard something about transforming faction symbols that seemed a bit out there. Well, my sources tell me it's real, they're going under "Icons" branding, and the first one will be Icons Optimus Prime, who turns from Autobot leader into Autobot insignia. Retail price around $46, should be out this fall, expect preorders in the very near future.
  17. It’s actually somewhat based on a true story
  18. I really like this design.
  19. support rod?
  20. Way ahead of ya, watched Fall last night, and yeah, it was good. Excellent cinematography really makes you feel the height at times. Guess the tower doesn't actually exist, but it sure looked real in the fim. SFX are best when they don't look like SFX. That said, ya have to wonder how many similar towers exist around the world and whether something like this has occurred.
