Your stuff looks really good, Jay. At one point I was planning on doing a 3DCG version of the original Macross, but I got sidetracked with other things. My first character modeling project in 3Ds Max was Hikaru Ichijo for the intro sequence. I never got around to modeling the Macross or the valkyries. Your valkyries are very good, although I think using meshsmoothed polys must have been really bad for memory management. I was planning to use splines to make patch surfaces based on the model kits.
Nice job, though. Very good stuff, and I've actually seen some of the original F-14s parked at Northrop Grumman in Florida.
