No production model...unfortunately. But a lot of "what if" color schemes. The first three pictures show an imperial Star Destroyer, Ebon Hawk kinda transporter and a Corelian Gunship from Star Wars which I'm currently working on for a friend. In the second row we have a Priss from Bubblegum Crisis. She'll be riding a 1/24 Highway Star motorbike. Big O from the animation The Big O. Some palms for Tracy Island from the British marionette show Thunderbirds. A Mobile Suit from Gundam0080: War in the pocket. I was trying a new camouflage pattern on this one since last year. The paint job is still not finished yet. The last picture show a 1/72 X-02 Wyvern (Kangnam Flanker) from the Playstation game Ace Combat. No, trying to get some model kits finished. Some of these things were started few years ago. The other stuff are just for a change.

Very nicely done cowie165. It's just sad to see everyone building the prototype version of the Berkut. There's one thing that bugs me about your Spitfire diorama. The sockets of the soldier figures. Cut it off, cut it off ! On my Bench at the moment:

The VF-0A isn't out now . It's release date is March. The VF-0S cost 1900Yen+tax ~16$ for Japan. My only found on eBay isn't worth mentioning. Too expensive.

Sorry I didn't meant to insult anyone. So I removed the picture. I'm really sorry ! Should have kept that for myself.

Sorry HWR MKII! I just couldn't resist. The German tank drivers reminds me of some movie actors. Oh! And on the bench lthere is an AMT/Ertl ISD. Edit: Picture removed.

That's true! The whole story could have fit into 24 or 26 Episodes. I don't hate Macross7 or any Macross Series or Movies. It's just that I still can't imagine how they were possible to attract viewers with the first 5 episodes of Macross 7. And the thing about Episode 26 is only because Basara don't need to sing alone during the battles anymore. Oh and of course the Sound Booster weapons. Well You could say, that I'm more the Macross II kind of fan. Back to the topic. I voted for Gamlin cause he's willing to change his self. The character develops very well during the series. Basara would have left Mylene for any other object/creature/humanoid/xxx that sings or make strange noises.

Very cool Cosplay pics, as always Thanks for sharing these. How did you got to meet up with Joe Hisashi ? I love his compositions especially those from Kikujiro's Summer. Although I'm not really a fan of classic.

I just finished the last episode of Macross 7 a few minutes ago. It took me nearly 4 weeks to watch the whole xxxx series. I don't know how I survived this mess, but it sure strengthen my self-assertion. You'll also become a better person after watching Mac7. And don't believe the rumors. It won't get better past Episode 26.

The port was not done by Sonic Team. It was some small group who've been hired by Sega. There are many of these kind a ports for GBA. Mainly bestseller games from the SNES age converted to GBA with a lot of Bugs (R-TypeIII) The Sonic Team GBA(Sonic Advance series) and DS games played very well with less to complain to. I played Next Generation Sonic for 360 at the GC2006. Back then it was still under development, so only the Forest stage was playable. It played very well, had good controls and the demo was without that much loading screens. I don't have a 360 so I didn't watched the outcome of this game further. I noticed Famitsu gave this Game a 30/40 rating last year. It the same rating they've given the PS3 game in one of the december Famitsu magazine. I also didn't knew that there are two Sonic Teams(US/JP) now. Guess QA at both companies were to "busy to report" the bugs and toubles of this game. Especially if it was ment to be a 15th anniversary product like the GBA Sonic. I red that NGSonic game was released half fixed because Microsoft wanted it before the PS3 version hits the shelves. Don't know if it's treu but since I have friends(They made Lula 3D,Aquanox2& Angel's tears,Legend of Kay) in the gamesindustry who can prove how cruel most Publisher can be, I wouldn't wonder if this was also a decision made by some one who holds a checkbook and don't cares about gamefun and ratings. Okay I pull back my statement about the Sonic games and Sonicteam . Oh! And about Atari death. I don't wish any company to vanish the way Atari did. Don't get me wrong .I own a Jaguar64 and VCS2600(Still operational after 21years!Test played Frogger last year) and wasn't making fun about that company's difficulties. There weren't many choices for Sega back then. Whether with a new gaming console or bieng treu to Dreamcast till the company went bankrupt . If other Hardware sell fine and your games are the soul of the Company why not selling those for other plattforms. Sega always gave their best with the hardware. But never was able to dominated the market how Nintendo or Sony does. They do have a lot of good and unique games. And if selling games on other plattforms can save their company, then why not. I disliked the idea of Sega to provide their rivals with games(except ShenMueIII) in the first. Now I think it was a neccessity for their existance. It was better than giving use an other short life console and go down like Atari did. Well maybe I should make a exception by Infinium Labs

U.N.SPACY Megaroad . I don't remember reading anything about the Jolly Rogers being the only squadron joining the Megaroad 1. Either no one knows if the VF-1 Wolfpack Squadron could have joined an other Fleet as well. The VF-1 were one of the first squads recieving the F-14A and flying it in combat zones. So why not the first traveling into deep space. I hope Big West don't change it with upcoming shows or graphic novels.

I wouldn' t say that the do worse at the moment. They manged to escape the "Atari death". Teaming up with Sammy gave them more opportunity to develope more arcade games (which is AM2s main business). Sonic Team isn't creating much crap lately.Pantasy Star Universe and the 3 new Sonic games proves that. It's Hitmaker who's been releasing crappy halfbaked RPGs and fungames for PSP and PS2. If Sega would be given the chance to make a new Macross game than I highly appreciate Smilebit or Cinematic OG to develope that.

Guys the answer is .......... "Gobots " You have transforming bikes. It's 80's animation and worldwide popular, cause everyone hates them.

HWR MKII Looks like you only deal with the bigger (HUGH!) toys and models. Which bank are you and your fake 1/6 german friends attemptimg to pay a visit ? I want to join. This is how the Wolfpack CAG will look like.

I'll try to reconsider that........mmmh. No way! Nope, not from ThunderboldIII. Those were left over from a Flanker kitbash few years ago. That would be the alternative. I still can't get a clear picture of the right wing form. Same also on the Gunpod design which now looks like the hybrid of GU-15 and the one for the VF-1AR/JR/SR. I'll make some pics of it as soon I glued the parts together. By the way. How is your VF-1SR going? Any progress?

I'm still considering(since 2 days) which wing type to attach on the Lightning. I made 4 differant type of wings. Type C can also be used in forward swept position(my favorite...at the moment)what would make it look like the ADF-01Falken or FFR-41/FRX-00Mave. For A & B type I have to change the flaps in the middle section or else it just look a low-budget SR-71 clone. . Any suggestions?

I don't know what a Falke(Mmm...Hawk?!?) is, but it sure looks good and very detailed. Where's it from?

Just a small update on the Star Destroyer from last year. And yeah, I noticed his new owner already broke off a Dual Turbolaser canon.

In Miyazaki. In Germany we have something simulare. It was planned by the same guys(some japanese) few years ago. The same kind of construction only added some tropical rainforest and indoor basejumping. It's called Tropical Islands Strange I thought every nation would have it's artificial holiday resorts nowadays.Just like Carcity, indoor-skiing, -surfing, -paragliding, -free climbing.

I love Salamander and Gradius. But all these oldshool game collections ain't very innovative. There are too many PSX/PS2 converted or emulated games. When will the games industry start to create "real" PSP games? PSP the better PC-Engine?! [attachmentid=39204]

Macrocheira Keampferi! They look like already cooked.

Forgot Dead-Eye-Zon

Actual I planned to spend the weekend with my Lightning III. But thanks to some inspiring Mecha works from another forum I ended up painting Mobile Suits instead. What a waste of time.

Some crazy collector build this one and trashed it. Imperial Star Destroyer 6'4"

New consoles sell better with new games. Nobody would have been so excited about Zelda if it was only a remake with Wii remote controll.
