*shakes head* They look fugly and worse then that the look to comprise the perfomance too much to be of any value, wake up boyo "muscular" looking planes rarely perform well.

I remember that it is from the area-88 manga, very cool but completely impractical.

I've donated every year since my freshman year of college, very good program, my sister keeps telling me to donate my valks.

Man I want to play this game but I am a PC Gamer only, anyone know of any good, stable, non-viral X-Box emulator that will run Halo-2?

You know the more I look at the F-16 CFTs the more I dislike them. Not only are butt fugly but I can't see how they don't just thrash the aerodynamics of the aircraft. Also with how they rise vertically as they move outboard just seems so wrong and like it will create alot of drag and airflow problems. I realize there was no other place to mount them but there had to be a better solution then this.

must have sub of movie, appleseed rocks

Definitely not bad, though Shin, or any of the area-88 characters are pretty easy to do.

what is UY?

I like it, go D.

I like it, but I would go with a more blue color for the suit.

Man you are a great artist, veyr good eye for both characters and mecha, do you have any examples of your other work, outside of macross?

now that is one sexy beast

Update, texturing is completed, I was going to do a family portrait but AUTOCAD can't handle all three fulyl detailed models in scene togehter, oh well, guess this is another escuse for SuperO to tell me to change packages already. Enjoy the pics.

very nice, need to throw a VF-1 and a hornet in there as well, lol.

I love that shot, have a larger render of it?

I've got a better pciture then that somewhere, including modified lerx and shows the fuselage plug as well.

Oh right DH, I was looking at the wrong pciture in my MiG-29 book.

I found it interesting, though the inconcistencies in the character design bugged me to no end, and I thought the whole subplot with the captain's little brat and wife could have been dropped. Plus I found those mega-carriers to just be too rediculously huge especially since they were suppossed to be submersible. I love a good sub movie and for the most part this one was, filled with interesting sub designs, I just wish we got to see more of those designs.

Update, will start on the missile pod and engines tomorrow, like the markings?

Ok, looking at the pictures more I would say it is a Fulcrum-C, it has the small dorsal hump without the extra fule tank and ECM gear.

Hard call from these pictures, but I would say either a Fulcrum-C or a Fulcrum-S. As for the canarded version, that is completely made up, as the canards are the same as on the SV-51. Some time ago there was a proposed Mig-29 variant with a fuselage plug to add about a meter or two in length , Thrust Vectoring Engines, and canards. That design was never pursued though. The canard positioning on the later MiG-29 really isn't that good and would really hinder performance more then enhance it, the angles are horrid and the positioning would not allow for any controllability, really they would be drag magnets.
