  1. Just ask yourself if you had done all Anakin had done and been through what he had been through by the end of EP III how would you feel. Personally i would hate myself and the emporer for the lies and deciet. I would feel disgusted with myself for killing the one i love and would not want to live.. Unfortunately im still being kept alive inside an infernal machine. The only reason vader stayed areound i think is vengance, which he got in ROTJ.
  2. Hey Ali I totally understand how you feel man. I have had alot of similar things happen to me before. It took someone else to help out and knock me back a second to reassess. As Agent One said your still alive and healthy. I know what money troubles can be like too im in the military. You could also look at it this way you wont be in an active war zone for christmas will you? Things will get better.
  3. ALL YOUR VALK ARE BELONG TO US.
  4. My wife wants to see this movie. I told her to go have fun im no going. I only know of 2 Pitt movies where he doesnt end up looking like some weird drugged up crack whore, Meet joe black and Seven. i havnt seen all his stuff mind you but im not impressed by what i have seen from him. Side note Stealth=Robot Jox wait a minute ive spent time to watch robot jox, stealth i will not.
  5. What is this robocop 3 movie of which you speak? There is no such animal. You MUST be imagining things surely. sarcasm people sarcasm The scifi miniseries was ok though. I just didnt like the mariachi band music in it.
  6. One thing you have to remember about Anakin. In some way,shape, or form since EP I he has been a "slave" always calling someone master and having to do what he didnt want to. I dont know if lucas planned on a meaning like that behind his character but after looking back at all 6 films it became quite obvious.
  7. I know of the disparaties between the EU and movies. Whatever happened to having conversation for conversation sake. Each time something EU is brought up someone sticks their nose in just to remind every one how the EU isnt canon and how it doesnt apply to them. The movies are the movies and the EU is EU. Since all the movies have books i consider the books canon with the rest of the EU. Whatever happens on screen can stay there and be as canon as it wants. As far as the books are concerned they are all canon with each other. Sorry to rant on this guys but it kills a conversation whenever someone spouts off ITS EU SO I DONT CARE ABOUT IT. so what its a discussion.
  8. How about a game based off the anubis frame and his pilot. That character seemed to have his own agenda mostly. That and the frame design kicks ass.
  9. If you use a small enough dot it will be dry really quickly withing 5 minutes or so. I use the tube stuff from testors. Liquid cement is good but sometimes tube glue is still the way to go. The part will still fall off if you arent careful applying the ca since the PE parts wont bond to plastic or resin with it but it provides enough of a bond to hold it there while you get the CA onto a toothpick. I mainly use this method on the really small bits. The larger PE parts usually have enough room to apply in the normal method.
  10. In tales of the jedi and the sith war books the Mandalore were not human. It clearly shows an alien pick up the mask of Mandalore on the moon of Duxun and say that he is now the Mandalore. Although it could be argued that the Mandalore were mulit species like the Jedi as well. Grevious was a reptillian general that was horribly wounded in a plot by dooku. They took the remaining pieces and put him back together ala Darth Vader style. Alot of people think he was a prototype for vader so the Emporer could make sure it would work. How the emporer realised this is up to you but the Jedi and Sith both have a form of foresight.
  11. PollyS were awesome in the 80s before testors bought out floquil and got the license. Now its just testors paint in PollyS bottles. The testors formula is too thin for my liking aside from small detail stuff. Want ultra flat finishes and tamiya isnt available then PollyS was where it was at. I heard Testors will be bringing the old Polly formula back since the feed back they got wasnt good. For airbrushes i also use a double action. Its the one released by Revell/Germany. IT ROCKS. i love it and cleaning it is simple. Some people will swear by single action too. With enough experience(WMCheng) people can get finer and lighter lines out of a single action than out of a double action.
  12. I usuallu use a small dot of model glue to "tack"the PE in place then i take a toothpick with CA on it and let the glue run between the PE part and the model. After the model glue dries it holds the part in place well enough to allow me to put the CA (super glue) on without it sticking to fingers or tweezers.
  13. Sweet. I always liked the look of that aircraft. Thanks man.
  14. Ill try to take some tomorrow when im at the base for ya.
  15. Want some pics of the setup our security forces use on teir M4s over here?
  16. I think it happens after the second game. I have the entire series. James is in control most of the time but the AI is autonomous when he isnt in the cockpit. Its a good fun series that actually has some good plot twists.
  17. Got any pics of that awesome PBY Catalina flying boat in the background?
  18. HACK...HACK......HACK...... HACK HACK HACK . Sorry guys got a bad feeling in my throat after reading that crap. I think im better now. Im still amazed that this guy has a career of any kind after making that. Maybe hes in italy for "protection".
  19. Vallejo. I have heard good things but the amount of paint in the bottles is not enough for most of my projects. I know they are primarily for airbrushing but i work on such large models sometimes that the cost outweighs the quality. I have never been let down by Tamiya so ill stick with them. I have had my1/16 Tiger for more than a year now and the paint still looks just as good as the first day it was applied. That thing has been through some nasty conditions too. Ill probabl go through another gearbox and set of tracks before i have to consider repainting it. THANK YOU TAMIYA!
  20. Cameron. Get Cameron to do it. How many other good directors have his experience in making special effects work. Plus his signing on alone would probably double the budget the studio would allow. Or he would just pay for it out of his own pocket . Fox has 2 great films from him ALIENS and The Abyss.
  21. Actually the weather here has been wonderful and sunny. Good weather for watching B17s and P51 s flying out from the duxford air museum. It hasnt really rained at all in almost a month. Its time to get my other 2 tanks up and running. HE HE
  22. no idea im stationed in the UK. the city of Cambridge i mentioned is the world famous one built around the centuries old university. Model building is huge here in the UK. They even have TV shows dedicated to it.
  23. One line from the book i wish was in the movie was said by Cody after he recieved order 66. "Why did i just give him the lightsaber?" had me cracking up when i read it. I think it was just the authors explanation of the characters thoughts but it would have been a good line.
  24. unfortunately its the price a hobbyshop in cambridge sells them for and they dont do mail order i wish i could help.
  25. Those grills look like the chaff/flare mods. The F-15 has them in a similar place. The cockpit work on that is amazing. Im extremely impressed. MORE PLEASE. I know the 2 "grills" on the underside of the tail nub are chaff/flare the mods hold 30 chaff or flare each. to make it look real good the flare usually has a little red cap in each stick. try to use a drop of paint on each hole to replicate the cap. I know they are small but you never know right now the mods look empty.
