    Battleship Movie

    in Anime or Science Fiction

    Posted

    So do any characters in the movie actually say "You sank my Battleship"?

    Nope

    If not, it aint even worth a rental.

    Only if you enjoyed World Invasion Battle L.A.

    Reminds me a bit of the anime "Super Atragon".

    And those spinning disc things... idea taken from Gundam F91?

    Almost...but no it's somthing more Hasbro related.

    Something like Beyblades...

    Anyone know how I can get a hold of member: TSP ?

    First of all sorry for causing you all the trouble, Lionell. I told you I was and still am very busy.

    2.Can't charged you anything if I don't know what will have to be done on the kit or anything else.

    3. You should have found out that I'm not building modelkits for financial benefit. It's all about craftmanship, challange and the "I try do better"-thing...enthusiasm.

    And 4. There are no reasons for me to keep your kit. I have a whole room full of modelkits and a well paid job for buying even more crap made of oil. And there it is. Well paid is the cause, and also means that I am indispensable for the company. Hope it'll change once the caterpillars starts moving some soil.

    It's quite hard for me to share some spare time for building modelkits at the moment. Allthought, "at the moment" lasts since last year October. You will get your kit like I wrote before. Don't want to make any promises about the exact time. You know that it will end like all those other apoligies/PM's if anything didn't worked out like planed.

    I might have to cancel a few ideas and reduce the whole build to a minimum which I can tell you, won't satisfy me in any kind a way. But it will ensure you'll get $1**L sooner.

    5.Yeah my english sucks just like my sense of time.

    Ace Combat: Assault Horizon

    Kawamori's take on Yukikaze for Ace Combat Assault Horizon won't win a beauty contest but it will become physicaly surgeonable according to Hasegawa.

    What you need to know is...it's an 1/72 scale plastic kit, and will be released somewhen around July this year. No price yet. I hope they'll print a Ver. Kei Nagase decals set cause the plain JASDF scheme is quite dull.

    If you look at some of the anniversary and Tiger Meet schemes of real life fighters, it's really not all that unrealistic. :lol:

    See links below.

    I'm going to say this now: DON'T paint the area under the airbrakes white. I'd bet a lot of money that everybody at Hasegawa has only said/done so because of the zillion incorrect model kits in the world of real jet fighters. They were probably trying to be "realistic" and copy the infamous "white airbrake housings" of the F-15 and F-18. Just like most any reference source you find on those jets do.

    Except that, that's wrong. Real F-15's and F-18's use the same color for the airbrake interiors and housings as the surrounding camoflage. Not white.

    (the Tornado is often cited as a counter-example, but it too actually uses grey--a pale grey to be sure, that contrasts with the camo---but it's not white)

    The insides of the Mitsubishi F-2 and Kawasaki T-4 airbreaks are white just like many other japanese jets. Oh, and VF-0, VF-1, QF-3000 are white underneath their airbreaks too.

    I've been forceing myself into building something from my backlog but ended up toying with a YF-29 kit. Have to admit that this is a really great kit engineering wise. Except for a few places like the canopy and nose cone dividing line, this kit looks great OOB, even if it's only snap fitted. I still don't like it's design, but I'm working on this point.

    @Petar congratulations for placing first in the SSM Starfighter competition. The WIP stages of your Homeworld cannon fodder were already awesome and it definitely deserved the 1st place.
