O/T Artwork
the white drew carey replied to the white drew carey's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
A lot of what Phyrox said I agree with, especially aliased lines. The concept is sound, but the execution needs more work. I find the galaxy of stars in the background EXTREMELY distracting, Maybe tone it down a bit? The font for the logo and author's name are very difficult. The text for the back cover is hard to read. Maybe think about darkening the image behind, or making the text black and lightening the image. Can't wait to see where it goes!!! -

Aircraft Super Thread Mk.VII
the white drew carey replied to David Hingtgen's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Some cool photos in this post over at EnglishRussia: http://englishrussia.com/2013/09/17/shooting-planes-from-the-ramp-of-an-12/ -
The one thing I REALLY like about Patlabor is how the Ingrams look functional. No (or very few) parts of the design look like they are there just to be cool and stylish (which, IMHO, was part of the reason the Type-0 was such a sleek and stylized design... to set it apart from our work-a-day Ingrams). That thing up there, and the new design for the live action... not so much.

Live action Patlabor in 2014
the white drew carey replied to antibiotictab's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Yeah. Better than the promo photo, but a bunch of useless greeblies added on for no discernible effect. The thing I always loved about the Ingram design was that it was visually smooth and sleek, which separated it from the work-a-day labors it was built to contend with, as well as the military labors and then the ultra-sleek and stylish Griffon. It just looked like it was designed in mind with the knowledge that it had to be functional, but was also going to be the very visible face of which ever police departments were using it. This? "Let's throw giant lug nuts on the shoulder... just because." Give me a new animated movie, please. This time focusing on Section 2, unlike WXIII (which was well-animated, but only really Patlabor by the inclusion of Section 2 in a few key action scenes).- 100 replies

the white drew carey replied to Keith's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I think the initial difficult in fighter mode is simply that the creator ddn't (wasn't able to?) create a faithful reproduction? It seems like the pilot is sitting a bit high, but maybe he just wanted to demonstrate how much you could see? I really like the 1st person in battroid. It is something rarely (ever? I don't know) done with Macross games, and I really feel that it put me in the valk. There are some obvious issues about making the entire thing work in battroid mode (where the heck is the gunpod pointing?), but those can be worked out. All things considered, that short video blew my mind with what a Macross game can be like. I'm tired of the 3rd person views. While they allow you to see the valks in all their glory, I always feel separate.- 6661 replies

I am so game for this. I also didn't notice any sounds that weren't supposed to be there in the second trailer. Everything you hear is either transmitted via radio, or via vibrations through physical contact, like when Explorer gets hit there is a boom that would be heard by anyone in physical contact with the shuttle (ie- Bullock's character).

The AV-98 Ingram design is timeless. There will never be a reason to update it. It is, IMHO, one of the best mecha designs ever.- 100 replies

Aircraft Super Thread Mk.VII
the white drew carey replied to David Hingtgen's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
At this point they are announcing two dead, and scores with varying levels of injuries. I guess the plane was too low and the tail section clipped the seawall. I'm sure footage will be released soon. The tragedy of this event is mitigated by the amount who have survived, quite a few with no injuries at all. I hope there is a speedy recovery to all those who are hospitalized. -

I doubt that they were/are deaf to reason. They obviously had this plan in place, but wanted to see how far they could push the customer. I mean, just last week Mattrick (sp?) quipped about how there was a solution for users who couldn't go online: the XB360. Now, I can imagine his sh!t-eating grin as he says that MS "listens" to the consumers, etc., etc.- 6661 replies

I don't know... at least they have the common decency to reference Macross instead of Robotech when discussing planes that turn into robots in this article: http://kotaku.com/you-wont-believe-this-is-an-indie-combat-game-512755897- 6661 replies

I find Microsoft's implosion to be funny, don't get me wrong. But if we do pick up a next gen console, it will probably be the PS4. I've just found that I like the exclusives more, and that the whole Xbox vibe both in the way MS operates and the community as a whole just puts me off. Sony did really lay MS on the mat last night, though. Like I said, funny stuff.- 6661 replies

Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
the white drew carey replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I'm a big fan of the storytelling in 0080, as well as the attempt to bridge 0079 with some of the later series (IMHO, it wasn't until 0080 that we really began to see a realistic and up-to-date RX-78 design). As for designs, Sentinel is the crème de la crème, yet to be out-done. I really wish they had made an OAV series out of that rather than Unicorn.- 6004 replies
