    Yeah this one is staying in fighter mode for sure. That battroid is just... bleh.

    I was about to set up my Plus area like that, except with the Arcadia YF-19 instead. Bandai's effort is just inferior IMO.

    Looks better than the one I did a few years back. Might have been more than a few, possibly 20. I remember the colors being a newer version of their even older 1/144 kit although I still remember it being a long while back

    Or aliens in general (not just humanoid alien-types). Judging by Nvidia's responses in Daniel Owens' video, DLSS 5 isn't even a TikTok/Instagram filter. It's straight-up re-interpreting the image based on the game engine's input. Not even an overlay. They've showcased a lot of people in their renders but what about in-animate objects. A shadow cast on a textured wall could be reinterpreted as, for example, a different color with cracks or a different texture altogether in one frame before being correctly interpreted in the next frame by DLSS. Random dirty graffiti on a wall could be reinterpreted as moss in a random scene in Last of Us just because the AI thinks it's moss or something just by the way it was drawn by the game engine, lighting was set for the scene, etc. We shall see though. I think the more important takeaways right now are a) Nvidia generated those renders with two 5090s, b) these tools are further locking in developers to Nvidia's software. Nvidia says you only need 1 card to do this but they're not making the case by using two cards, and surely not helping by using their halo product line. If Nvidia is pushing more resources to neuro rendering, will the next RTX cards carry less raw performance and lean more heavily on AI-accelerating hardware? I think that is the direction they are heading. It's the direction they've always been heading. We've seen rasterization performance slowly being less focused by Nvidia. I think the better saying is "Masks off." The other is locking developers into their ecosystem. With AMD slipping to only 5% of the GPU market and Intel barely being a blip on the chart, Nvidia is barrelling to a monopoly. And we know where that will lead.

    Finished up the Wave 1/144 LED Colus. a fun little build. Noticing a lot of sinks in this kit among other strange design choices for construction

    Congratulations @xstoys! I noticed the canopy is colored differently from the built up toy version releases. Very cool.

    I'm very curious on how it works on non-human characters. "Hey, Mass Effect Super-Legendary Remake. Blue aliens---must be Na'vi, add the Na'vi filter!" Because that's probably the only "blue humanoid aliens" it's trained on...

    Very nice!

    Looking great. Your patience and process are paying off. 👍

    This would look cool if it was the DX. Even HMR. Is this AI generated?

    So after months of putting it off, the deck on the Texas is now done! Now... I kinda cheated... I mixed up a wash using Vallejo French Blue and Black thinned with H20 and made the color that the deck is supposed to be which is officially US Navy Deck Blue 1942 20B, which is what the actual ship is getting the deck repainted in at this very moment down in Galveston TX. Now I'm sure the pros who build lots of ships are way better than I am at knowing how to paint decks and not make a complete mess of all the stuff ON the deck but an acrylic wash is very forgiving so I went that route. All done with a small brush. Took about 3 coats, to darken it up but from a foot away in natural light it looks pretty believable. A few... well a lot... of touch up with the gray around the gun tubs need to happen but that's not terrible. Then.... It's time to drop the superstructers and main guns down on this bad boy! P. S.... If anybody needs any True North (not cheap) enamel US NAVY DECK BLUE 20B, holla at ur boy, I have 3 unopened bottles! 😂

    Are those joints made of granite speckle pattern plastic? After getting it right with the revivals, they have to be intentionally trolling now by introducing heterogeneous materials that invoke thoughts of their mythical explodium plastic...😱

    Fortson has some plump cheeks, though she should be a redhead. And nary should there be a brunette in the bunch. But. as long as it is better than the gawd-awful live-action movies... And it has Mckenna Grace, so that's cool!

    Wow!!! his overcomes years of waiting, it"s wonderful to see how it turns out I wish I could have the ability to be able to design valks, I congratulate you
  26. tekering
    That's supposed to look like this, isn't it? I mean, I can see some similar design cues, but... it's not nearly as good as their Logan, even. 🤨

    Agree, I'll stick with the V.O.T.O.M.S. which I'm sure will fill up my display case quickly enough!.... I didn't buy any of the Dougrams either! But if they ever rework the Hi-Metal R Destroyd Macross line & match the quality of the V.O.T.O.M.S., I'll gladly get back in too thoughts as well!....🤗
