    Exo you did a great job. Phyrox what specific issues do you have with the covers, front and back? Realize that the back cover is still a major WIP. I've tried a couple of PS fiters to try and make the image more seemless. I applied these to the whole image as a test what do you all think of these? Paint Daubs Angled Strokes Water Colors

    Phyrox, thanks it still a work in progress, especially the back cover. While I love the character art on the cover I am running into my personnal limits when it comes to the coloring of them. The lines around the edges I will have to fix I know, shouldn't be too hard to correct on the fighters and lettering though. I am really starting to see the lines around the characters too, will fix those, ugh how did I miss that?

    Some artwork I am working on my book rewrite. Exo helped me my doing the lineart of the characters on the front cover. Also, the text on the back cover is not final either. I would appreciate any comments. Front Cover: Back Cover:

    The Breast Fighter was also the design when Macross was intended to be a straight up comedy.

    So I've had some time to look over the design some more. It is very transformer in style, not very macross. However, I can understand why the went the route they did with it. The designer was attempting to bridge the gap between the VF-1 Valkyrie and the VA-6 Alpha. There are elements of both in their design, crammed into the original YF-4 airframe. I find the leg collapsing system interesting, and draws alot from the VF-1 leg delivery system but instead of using pistons it uses folding arms. The rest of the oragami in the transformation is illogical however, especially the backpacks, since I see no way for them to move up onto the back like that. Then there is the VA-6 style head that clearly could not fit through whatever gap is generated when the fuselage splits in half. I also see a lot of proportion changes between modes. Overall, I would give it a D grade.

    Wow, a really inelligent design. And is that an Alpha head on it?

    Ok, that pretty cool I must admit and not a subject we see too often, well done.

    Saw it, loved it, and yes the orbital mechanics issues of the locations are there, but in terms of storytelling they needed to something like that. Earth orbit is not exactly heavily populated with manned facilities after all. Also since this is set along an alternate timeline to our own, maybe those facilities are closer together as a result.

    I just wish the show would start to get smarter. The characters are just trying to hold on instead of move on or trying to find a source/cure. The show would get a lot more interesting IMHO, if someone came forth saying they found the source and they started moving out to find it and a possible cure. Yes it harkens back to the first season, but if done properly and smart, it could be really epic. Imagine if, there is a pattern to the walker herds, follow the pattern, find the source. What if the source is something that can be used to kill or cure the walkers, what then do you do it? I have an idea for my own Ghoul story that would follow that line of thinking, but I'm not sure if I will do anything with it.

    I remember that beast, back in the day Graham commented on it that the joints were a serious issue, at least with the resin proto and the cost made it prohibitive to make.

    Man I wish I could have made it. We were still debating going right before the furlough hit, dang it.
  13. Knight26
    I do hope this is true, that would be awesome.

    I will give the show 4 episodes, most Whedon shows, as well as most genre shows need about 4 episodes to really hit their stride. I think the biggest issue I have with this one is that it feels like the first two episodes were written to go together as one long episode. The studio/channel demanded it get cut into two episodes which required added scenes and hurt the overall flow. The biggest reason why I feel this was intended as a long episode, the character build up, and the bookending with Maria Hill at the beginning and Nick Fury at the end. I would like to see a cut of these two episodes as one long one, with a lot of the BS scenes removed, it would likely flow better.

    The car itself is not cheesy, just how they introduced the flying aspect

    The show was interesting and shows promise. A couple things of note, good and bad: Good: Nice use of other Whedonverse actors Nice callouts to the other marvel movies Interesting setup for Coulson (is he the real coulson, a clone, Life Model Decoy, cyborg?) Good setup for the rest of the series The C-17 interior is laid out very similar to Serenity, Bad: The flying Lola was super cheesy, could have been avoided or done better The C-17 modifications were just stupid. A second tail, that is just a copy and paste of the outboard wings: fail. Adding a third set of engines to said tail: Fail. Placing said engines almost directly in the exhaust path of the inboard main engines: Fail. If they wanted to make the C-17 VTOL, why not just put the QuinJet's lift fan in the tail, or have them pop out. Neutral: The super hero guy could have/should have been Luke Cage, that's just me, but I wanted him to be Luke Cage, maybe Marvel is holding out to do a Luke Cage movie or show. I will stick with it for a few episodes and see where it goes. But I want to see some Firefly alum come on and comment that their C-17 seems familiar, since the layout, as said is based on Serenity, just flipped around.

    Well, I'm out, my wife just lost her job, so we are back down to just my income and need to trim with the holidays coming up.

    So it's Dr Who's Waters of Mars without the doctor. Honestly though I like the look of it, I like that cast and most of the tech, other than the dropship, looks good. Too bad they still get the gravity on Mars wrong, but I can overlook that.

    It is an interesting plane to be sure, and would make a nice economic boost. Thing is, since it is a two seater I could see it as a trainer as well, something of a T-37 replacement. It is not fast enough for a T-38 replacement. Though a new wing and afterburning engines might make it a viable replacement for the T-38 as well.

    You also have to remember that 051 is a strictly flight test bird for testing the flight dynamics of the aircraft. Russians work in an itterative process with each prototype testing another aspect of the design and eventually incorporating all of them.

    It was horrid, the guy they had to replace weller moved like freaking Kryten from Red Dwarf

    Well if that pciture is true then I am completely set against this movie, unless it sparks so much outrage that the entire script is thrown out along with Biebers rotting corpse.
  23. Knight26
    yeah that is my issue, she agreed to let me get the YF-19 next year, but that blue is just awesome, ugh, why do I have to be a responsible dad?!...
  24. Knight26
    Damn that is great fragging price, makes me want to ask the wife if I can get one.
