  1. my first crappy attempt at making a sms badge. I am redoing it. i figured out what I did wrong. I wish my normal computer was working. I hate using gimp! i miss photoshop. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b103/ali...a/osmabadge.jpg
  2. ah. the shape looks different. I am going to see if I can get the HD rip. It will probably be fixed in the final version. anyone else notice how the armored vf25 resembles a starfury? btw. can someone get me a high rez capture of the sms type(not the triangle logo by the type font straight on)on the vf25? I am trying to find the font so I can create templates for everyone. I found a font that looks almost exactly like the sms badge ozma wears. thanks in advance, Ali
  3. They don't. Look at the original vf1. It has a ton of thrusters all over the place. They could not animated the effects of it due to budget. Btw. I don't belive that frontier city is any bigger then city 7. It is just that city 7 had high sky scrapers and frontier 7 is more urban and sub urban then tall city structures. Most people think it is big due to the small size of the ship in front of the city. It looks pretty small actualy. It is probably 2-400 meters wide. the docking mechanism is supposed to be 150 or so meters wide on city 7. It also does not look modular. they probably decided to not have the main battle fortress docked with the city when they created it. I don't know why but the NUNS like NUN5 to me. http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/420/1198445010539ax5.jpg Awesome episode. Civilian and military government ? A separation of the two could be a logical possibility. Ali
  4. None of them. they all need to be improved. I like the Megahouse posability the best. But the gaps in the armor in the combined mode, as pictured. Makes it seem as if the cylone is smaller then it should be. the Booths also need to expand according to the line art. If they fixed that and had a good price I would get it. the toynamie looks too stiff. I wouldn't buy it. I like how the cylcone coveres the body like armor but everything else is mediocre, the cm looks okay. Nothing great. I wouldn't buy it though. ali
  5. There are a series of fires in orange county. This is a Prayer/good thoughts/ best wishes for everyone who is in the area.,a big should out to the brave fire fighters who are doing their level best to not only combat the fires but are saving lives.

God Bless, Ali http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,258229,00.html
  6. if I may give advice. Let it go. His opion wont' change. Magice can be explained with psionics and other things quiet easily. The base diffrence between science fiction and fantasy fiction is that science ficiton uses science as a plot device and everything is tangable due ot some sort of technobabble. It is speculative science. It does not need to be grouned in what we belive to be science. Hence you have your warp drives etc. Magic is somthing that is spectatucalr that you cannot explain with normal means. If you take the science out of a science ficiton piece it will fall apart. You can tell alot of the same stories using magic or science. Take terminator. You can tell the entire story in a fantasy setting and still have the sory work. Which is funny.
  7. high enough science can seem like magic. lol. there are alot of scifi sereis with magic elements in them. Star trek has a few of them. the Q being a primary example. Star wars has the force. etc.
  8. Koichi Ohata he wasl also talking about genocyber and how he created the mecha for that.
  9. This book has line art of the ships your looking for. Desig ascpects etc. It also has the sdf-1 and the armed ships as well.
  10. more personalized ones would have been cooler. but oh well.
  11. I met the mecha designer for macross 2 at a con in los angelos a long time ago. It was when the exosquad robotech toys came out and the macross 2 comic was out in the usa. He seemed really young.
  12. You right. I misread it. But. I stil belive the unspacy being an international group. Would still have callsigns. thank you.
  13. so the japanese defence forces listing their callsigns on the internet for everyone to see is a mere figment of my imagination. Yes, I am insane. http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/wor...df_callsign.htm here are callsigns in japanese. if you can read that. http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/wor...df_callsign.htm
  14. please read the link i gave which was about an anime ova which reused old world war II japanese aces and their "callsigns" as charcters.
  15. even stupid low brow movies like wing commander and the one which shall not be named under penalty of death(done by me due to curtosy to my good friend roy) had callsigns. Gundam had a excuse. he wasn't military and most of the real military on board died. I wish more stories would feature more realisitc things. a nickname is the same as a callsign. It gives the character more personality. roy is skull one i my mine. or skull leader. max kjea woudl be einstien max sterling would be silver. etc.
  16. red 5 is a callsign. he was just inlisted. It takes time to really get one. usually they are puns on the name or actions they did. luke "star killer" skywalker would work(refrence to the death star kill. lots of other things would work. callsigns are a part of the military. It is tradition. it's like making a military drama. Not showing anyone in uniform, saluting anyone. refering to any ranks. ANd expecting it to be a military show. Becuase it woudl sound silly or confuse the watcher. No let;s not call him major roy focker, roy focker. skip that. call him roy. yeah. but doesn't hikaru call him sempai? that is too confusing. let's call him sempai in the entire show. yes. let;s. do that.
  17. why should it? are the viewers stupid? there are plety of showes with main chracters who have callsigns. None of their viewers are confused. Even Gijoe had callsigns. Gijoe had way more characters and is comparible. Exo-squad had callsigns. If i remeber correctly.
  18. it became his callsign as soon as zion forces started calling him that. Callsigns are nicknames. I am finding more examples. this might be a looser one. but the point of the topic was. why no callsigns.
  19. The red comet - gundam Goh "Rocky" Mutsugi (Makoto Shinj - area 88 Sousuke Sagara - His call sign is Uruz 7 - full metal panic the callsigns for the yf project in plus. IN 0083, the zion forces have callsigns when trying to infitrate the federatio base and steal the gp units. read or die the paper, miss deep, the joker here i'll add more as i find them.
  20. not really. there are other sereis with callsigns. callsigns is a tradtition. considering the small cast. Having callsigns is not really an issue. Look at bsg and other shows. top gun. etc.
  21. they had deserters who had learned things from the human population.
  22. Why arn't there any callsigns? Considering the pilots are airforce. They should have call signs. the only ones we get are. Skull leader, vermilian 1 etc. they arn't real call signs. Call signs, historically tend to represent personality, a pun on the last name, or an act they did(usually embarresing). Max Jenus would be max 'Jenius' jenus or max 'einstien' jenus. stuff like that. Any thoughts?
  23. I will get this sucker eventually. I got a wave to of the 0s and it;s pretty good. I belive they fixed the qc control inthe secodn wave. everything is tight. i don't have the issues other people seem to have. i am going to use this sucker for the *hopefully* evntual reactiv earmor release. I need to get a gpb for the 1/48 roy i have. i think i'll get that next month.
