  1. Did anyone else cry when they saw this shot? Look at the detail!! its indeed DYRL SDF 1!! :o

    I cried, but for good reasons!

    I personally think that directly mixing DYRL with the TV Series is an extreme hit or miss concept.

    Either it's going to screw everything up and hurt Macross, or it's going to be The Bomb and help.

    I'm thinking with the obvious inclusion of some of the best that both versions of Space War 1 have to offer that this version could very well be the definitive version of Space War 1.

    It could also be a shrewd and bold attempt to establish BigWest's control of the Macross franchise outside of Japan.

    It is believed by some that Tatsunoko's rights only include the physical animation, but not the storyline itself. Hence, BigWest might be keeping the basic storyline intact but using what are obviously DYRL-established designs. Designs which ostensibly cannot be claimed in any way, shape or form by HG or, to a lesser extent, Tatsunoko. If you'll notice, the sequence of Max vs. Millia does include Max in his TV VF-1A colors, but the Valk itself looks to be of the DYRL persuasion.

  2. What BoK is clearly ignoring (besides the obvious mention that M7-Trash is available in France) is that BigWest hasn't blown their chance to spread into the international market.

    ...or is he completely forgetting the legitimate releases of MacII and Mac+?

    Jemstone- On a side note, I think BoK is still technically "banned" here. But I could be wrong.

  3. Here's my new picture, which was planned and created with the thought of making it a wallpaper theme. As you can see, the theme is Macross M3 based.

    Max was sketched and then inked before being scanned and colored in Photoshop. The VF-9 was sketched and then the lines and color was added using Photoshop as well. I know I should've used Illustrator to accomplish the lines, but I just got it and I'm still learning how to use it!!! :blink:

    Here is a link to the full-sized version (1024x768) at Macross Fan Creations for anyone who would like to partake of the image to use as their wallpaper: Just click on the image and it will load up the full-sized version. Don't forget to vote as well!!! (LINK)

    And, without any further ado, I bring you:

    Max Jenius M3

  4. Most (if not all) wall scrolls you'll find are bootlegged products anyway (usually evident by the removed UN Spacy logo).

    If you find a good image, look around for a printer in your area and do a run or two and sell them yerself. Most, if not all, of the other materials (the tubing and string) can be found at a craft store or something of the like.

  5. Keep in mind this high-quality version of the trailer was just released today, so people are downloading it en masse. Be patient with all of the sites and you shall be rewarded.

    p.s.- if you have good speakers on your computer, turn them up. The music is definitely an integral part of the trailer (as it is with the movies as well).

  6. At The One Ring you can download from several mirrors the new RotK trailer playing before that new Haley Joel Osment vs. The Old Guys movie.

    I must say, it is spectacular and carries on the grand tradition of Lord of the Rings trailers making my nipples hard enough to cut glass.

    I just absolutely love this sequence. Frame by frame does no justice to the actual video:

  7. Interesting.... some of the screen shots show that the game is more SDF then DYRL. :(

    You're right. That's definitely the Prometheus and Daedalus on the DYRL-style Macross.

    On a side note, this sequence is REALLY nice. Notice the Skull insignia on the tailfin of a TV-style Max VF-1A:

  8. Aaron- Follow the link in my signature to Yellowlightman's Macross Fan Creations site. You can see artwork there from many of our talented artists.

    Myersjessee and >EXO<- The majority of my work is either a pencilled or penned sketch. Anything colored is done through Photoshop 7.0

  9. That is really cool BoB... but why isn't he nearly showing his private parts?!? :p

    BTW- You can post things a maximum of 600 pixels wide here. I think that's a general rule set forth by the mods. Let's find out how it looks when it's bigger, eh?

  10. WDC,

    Damn man, she is sweet! I think the T shirt idea is great by the way too...

    Keep 'em coming, this is some of the best work I've seen in awhile!

    What's up next? May I suggest (obviously a VF-11 MAXL?)

    (Mind if I convert her to an avatar?)

    -JB

    Thanks guys!

    Burn- they're on their way.

    JB- I actually have 3 on my mind at the moment and one of them does happen to be a MAXL...

    As to an avatar? I don't know how well it "shrinks". Let's take a look. If you like it, you're more than welcome to use it.

  11. Here's a handy guide for future reference:

    LOL- Data's daughter with her name spelled wrong.

    Bump- ...and grind.

    IIRC- The sound your significant other makes once they've realised you just dropped next month's rent on a toy.

    LMAO- Short for "Lil Mao', the Communist Rap Superstar. (bling)

    ROTFL- Kind of like the ROTC, but lamer.

    ROTFLMAO- Same as ROTFL, but your down with 'Lil Mao. (bling)

  12. I think the transformable ones look OK in fighter and Gerwalk mode, but I'd have to agree with everyone else that the Battroid mode sucks.

    I do like the pic of the non-transformable Hikaru kicking the Regult over. :lol:

  13. I'd say probably not......it seems that the anti-UN forces generally favor hit and fade tactics, and thus highly manueverable mecha.  Destroids seem to be mainly for defense of static targets.

    The Anti-UN would have to have bases, fleets and fixed sturctures just like the UN. You can't fight an entire war with offensive weapons only. Plus, the only tactics we have seen from them involve a wolfpack of SV-51's. There have probably been much larger, non hit-and-run engagements using more conventional (non-overtech) weapons and tactics.

    I definately agree on that.

    Also, you must remember that destroids aren't only for combat. Look at the Spartan. That thing barely has any attack ability, but it has arms for lifting heavy objects. I'd assume the Anti-UN would look into such a design if it gained the funds to do so.

    Well I don't know about that... The Spartan is loaded with guns in it's central chest and has two missile racks on each shoulder.

    ...and a billy club.

    :rolleyes:
