Mr March Posted October 3, 2007 Author Share Posted October 3, 2007 Ah... My bad I'm assuming the site you posted in the other thread was your site. Nice database by the way. Nope. UNSQMTDB is briscojr84's website, the Macross Mecha Manual is my website. Together, we are McCaen's/March Overtechnology Guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr March Posted October 4, 2007 Author Share Posted October 4, 2007 With all the new posts in this thread I thought I missed an M3 update. I felt ashamed for a few seconds... Hehehe, not yet. I'll probably release an update sometime in the next month. I got about 25 new profiles completed of mostly Macross 7 vehicles. That's small, but enough to release. However, I'm working on revisions, corrections, house cleaning and other little website things that have been neglected for far too long. These will take a while to finish.

The Macross 7 mecha and space ships were very nice for the most part. Though the Varuta mechas and shîps are ugly as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Focker Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 For the DYRL? version of the Armd carrier you list it as having: Space fighters: 78 x SF-3A Lancer II Space planes: 270 x QF-3000E Ghost Variable Mecha: unknown number of VF-1 Valkyrie. I believe that is the same as the TV version. The Gold Book list it as having 262 VF-1 and 66 QF-3000E Ghost. Plus it's lenght was extended by 20 meters.

sketchley Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Mr March, I was wondering if you might think of adding this pic to M3. It is very hard to find and would be nice to see it archived somewhere. It's from: マクロススペシャルプレビュー愛覚えていますか Pg 46. The book has a few other goodies on DYRL not seen in other books (though, as I don't have the Gold Book, I'm not sure if they are in there or not.)

Mr March Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 October 29, 2007 MAJOR UPDATE I am pleased to once again release more updates for the Macross Mecha Manual. Today features 30 new profiles but the primary focus of this update is to properly revise and correct existing content. The website has been a learning experience and vehicle profiles have been refined as more were released. Looking back it's clear some of the first profiles suffer from low resolution scans, poor quality colored art, grammatical/spelling errors and a lack of organization. To correct these shortcomings, the four main VF-1 profiles (VF-1A, D, J and S) have been completely revised as well as most of the other VF-1 entries. I encourage all fans to take another look at these updated profiles. Some improvements may not be obvious, but at the very least visitors will appreciate the new content and organization. Along with the major revisions comes the new color code system, implemented in the VF-1 profiles and the Macross 7 section. The color code system is designed to draw the reader's attention to the technical details of vehicle variants that differ from the standard model. I'm hoping this improves reading and quick reference. The system is just a test at this point and I'm eager for feedback. I think it's a great new addition, but some may find legitimate fault. Please feel free to share your thoughts. This update has debuts-a-plenty with the new Books section, the Macross Game and Advanced Valkyrie section and the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section. I'm also happy to add another hilarious feature to the Humor section titled "Pimp My Valkyrie." Last but not least, the holy grail of line art has been found! Totoro242 of the Macross World message boards has provided a high resolution scan of the elusive Megaroad-01 line art (which I have now colored). A big thanks to this generous Macross fan!

Mr March Posted October 30, 2007 Author Share Posted October 30, 2007 (edited) vermillion01 Total Rockstar, just like Zack Glad you enjoy the site. Sumdumgai Good to hear. I hope you liked the color fully armed VF-1A Fighter Ignacio Ocamica Very good to hear. I figured the color code system would work a lot better than without. I was just looking at the stats one day and I started lamenting all the repetition in profiles for the variants. It's necessary, but I needed something to help make things more readable (my mantra). Then it hit me: I'm good with coloring pictures, why not also color code? Eventually, I'll fix up the other entries throughout the site as well. mike Enjoy, enjoy! I've got some real kickass stuff coming next update. Prime You're slow! The M3 was asking me where you were chrono Hehehe, definitely a nice addition to the holiday Flaming Guantlet I was waiting for the response on the new Humor section. I think it's even better than the Messages, but that's just me. I was thinking of a character as host, but decided to just leave it as some anonymous gangsta Lonewolf There you are! I know you warned me that I'd never get a hold of you on MSN, but damn! Some of the Macross 7 stuff was hard to do...the sound force valkyries were REALLY hard to do. Ugh! The last thing I wanted to do was to be taking these things seriously. But, if it's on the M3, it has to be top quality. No room for slackers, hehehe. I figured if I'm going to go ahead with a complete M7 section, I had to do the sound crap sooner or later. So I bit the bullet and got it all out of the way first. And just my luck, the sound valkyries were all really hard to do with tons more coloring required than the average valkyrie. Now I hate Macross 7 even more...HAHAHAHA Actually, one thing that did surprise me was a new found affection for the VF-11D. I hate the sound stuff, but everything else about that Valkyrie rocks. It's more heavily armed than any other VF-11 except the Protect Armor, has more powerful engines, has a pin-point barrier and I really like the colors. But now that all the sound crap is out of the way, the next update is going to be filled with all sorts of death and destruction!

It's more heavily armed than any other VF-11 except the Protect Armor, has more powerful engines, has a pin-point barrier and I really like the colors. I knew you'd come around to loving the VF-11D! It is one of those surprise designs from Mac 7 that is truly a work of art! I could see it with the radome or as a 2 man bomber configuration. If you swapped the sound farce boosters with "real" FAST atmospheric packs, it would be a formidable weapon system to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vermillion01 Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 i love the 'pimp my valkyrie' section, but to be honest i thought it would be an interactive feature.. kinda like the DIY southpark figures site ( http://www.sp-studio.de/ ). maybe there's an idea for the future... i know its probably way too much work though and bandwisth issues a plenty. Would be cool to Pimp your own valk model though... still loving the site! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumdumgai Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Mr March, have you come across any official line-art of how the VF-11D's heatshield comes out? It's so bulky, I can't figure out how it would be possible to have it come out like the normal VF-11B/C heatshield. Similarly have you found any VF-4 transformation diagrams for transformation into battroid, besides what is in the Macross Design Works book? I've always been bothered trying to figure out what goes where from that one diagram, in particular how the nose-cone slides back over that fin under the cockpit that folds into the nose. I don't really want to think about where the landing gear would go, since there's already so little room to work with on the VF-4... I just realized when looking through the Macross Design Works that the VF-1 Armored Gerwalk looks like a terran valkyrie conversion to the glaug.

Zinjo Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 I just realized when looking through the Macross Design Works that the VF-1 Armored Gerwalk looks like a terran valkyrie conversion to the glaug. The armored GERWALK get's soo little loving!! It's one of my favorites (once I got past the rather silly looking twin cannons on the turret). My only beef besides the twin cannons, is that for such a system to be effective it would need to be mounted on a VF-1D where the back seat would act as the gunner for the pilot. The idea is sooo cool and I wished it would have been used in the Mars Base episode of SDFM, albeit with several different weapons packages on the turret. That would have been an effective defensive system against the Glaug and Regults... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr March Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 charger69 I like that car. It's got good line and angles, so much so that I find the design has aged VERY well since 1995. You're right though, it does resemble the Lola T70 more than a little. I'm glad the update helped you find pictures of this vehicle. Zinjobular I agree! I've been thinking of a new section for the M3 where I'd dump all the miscellaneous fun stuff. Fan custom coloring, custom line art creations, wallpapers, et cetera. A VF-11D Custom outfitted with VF-11C Atmosphere/Space Super Parts would be ideal. I don't think it'd be all that hard. A worthy project to consider! Lonewolf I'll take your word for it In all seriousness, I am glad at least a few fans are enjoying the Macross 7 mecha. If nothing else, they are fun to look at just as a very brightly colored alternative to the rest of the franchise chrono Don't be shy reporting errors if you see them. If it improves the M3, that's all that matters Well, I'd be loathe to compare anything on my site to 4Chan, but perhaps it is kinda silly. But if it got a chuckle, that's my goal vermillion01 That sounds like a wonderful idea. I encourage you to go make that website and I'll host it on the M3 if you like Hehehe, seriously, I'm self-taught in HTML and only know just enough to be dangerous. That kind of thing is way out of my league. I can see the implications to a mecha site. It would be VERY sick, as they say these days Sumdumgai I've not seen any four-piece canopy transformation pictures for the VF-11D. However, the line art for the VF-11D is different from the VF-11C and the whole forward nose/cockpit has a redesigned shape. Bet you never noticed If you look closely, you can see the VF-11D forward fuselage is much larger; both wider, longer and reshaped compared to the VF-11C. The thickness of the VF-11D would be really noticeable sans Super Parts, but I don't know if that kind of line art exists either. It's important to remember the statistics and remember the artist. Kawamori is a perfectionist and detail-minded. I know it's easy to dismiss statistics because so many mecha shows abuse them. But... THIS...IS...MACROOOSSSSSS!!!!!!!! Hahaha. Seriously, the VF-11C is length 15.51 meters long while the VF-11D is 16.02 meters long. That difference is not only reflected in the official numbers, but it is also reflected in the actual design. The forward nose is longer, less sleek and wider. Here's several comparison pictures; you'll notice a difference right away (and I'll include a second batch showing significant differences): Lastly, the Battroid line art can be somewhat deceptive. It accentuates the VF-11D four-piece canopy cover (as do the colors and shading). Take a look at the canopy covers as seen from the battroid mode (with Super Parts) top view for a more accurate perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley424 Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Nice update, I'll be looking through them as time permits. Are the M&M VF-22s from Mac7 going to be added the site anytime soon?

Sumdumgai Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Hot damn! You're mostly right Mr. March. I thought that the nose area of the VF-11D had been lengthened, but I didn't catch any of the other details! Thank you for pointing those out, I never noticed the other changes! This is why I love hanging out here. I keep getting surprised when people point out things I've missed.

Mr March Posted November 1, 2007 Author Share Posted November 1, 2007 (edited) Smiley424 Make sure to go through all the new content; it's worth it Yes, the VF-22S Sturmvogel II will be included. I've always planned to have that one in the Macross 7 section, more than I can say for the other mecha that made it there, hahaha Right now, I've got half a dozen new profiles ready to go and another half dozen well on the way. The following is a list of mecha that are certain to be in the next update: VAB-2D Fighter-Bomber VA-3M Invader VF-X Ravens VA-3C Invader VA-3C Invader Custom VF-1A Valkyrie VF-X Ravens VF-1S Super Valkyrie VF-X Ravens VF-11C Thunderbolt Space/Atmosphere Super VF-17D Nightmare VF-X Ravens VF-17D Nightmare Cyan VF-19A Excalibur VF-X Ravens VF-19F Excalibur VF-19S Excalibur VF-19S Excalibur Test Flight VF-19S Excalibur Super VF-5000B Star Mirage VF-5000G Star Mirage VF-5000G Star Mirage Custom VF-5000T-G Star Mirage VF-22S Sturmvogel II VF-22S Sturmvogel II VF-X Ravens Neo Nupetiet-Vergnitzs Class Fleet Command Battleship Bolognese Zentradi Class Stealth Frigate This second list includes mecha I want to be in the next update: VF-14 Vampire (Macross 7 Plus Version) VF-14 Vampire (Macross M3 Version) Grahams Armor Suit Rex Gang Motorcycles Queadluun-Quilqua Macross 5 Macross 13 QF-2001 Ghost Hollywood Class Amusement Ship Mark Twain Class Resort Ship Einstien Class Research Experimental Ship Three Star Factory Ship Sunny Flower Agricultural Ship West Point Class Macro-Training Base Ship Sumdumgai Glad I could help. It is a lot of fun exploring the mecha of Macross in this way. You gain such appreciation for the mecha and the effort that was put into designing each vehicle. I've mentioned above that I want to create a special dumping ground for all kinds of miscellaneous mecha stuff and I'm really convinced now that it would be an asset. I can place stuff like the VF-11D/VF-11C comparison pictures above in such a section. Edited November 1, 2007 by Mr March Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can place stuff like the VF-11D/VF-11C comparison pictures above in such a section. Yeah, like a "Comparative Study of Updates, Variants and Customs" section would be cool! The width on the VF-11D appears mainly to accomodate the "bubble" pod for the Jamming Birds. In a purely military application, I can't see them wasting materials on a "space bubble" for the rear seat or widening the airframe to accomodate one. Though the thrust vectoring panels on the FAST pack of the jamming birds custom is definitely an upgrade to the typical VF-11 FAST packs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
