chillyche Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Wow, man, it's looking really impressive. Can't wait to see it animated. Whatever happened to that Oberth you started for us? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zinjo Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Wow love the Carrier version. One suggestion on the texturing though. The hull designation would be "NMC-25", not SDF-25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REN Posted June 29, 2009 Author Share Posted June 29, 2009 hello everyone! After a holiday break here I am again at work!!!! Again thanks to all I have almost finished the model of VF-171, I just finish the dorsal! Here some picture! The Wire: The standard Version: Uhm.... the rear is not so good!!!, But i have no idea how to build it....... The Custom Variant: Here the squadron: for now its all,see ya next week with some animation!! CiuZ Ren And the armored custom: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr March Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Incredible work as always. Well done! The nose on the VF-171 needs a bit of work, but other than that the craft looks amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchizophrenicMC Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Incredible work as always. Well done! The nose on the VF-171 needs a bit of work, but other than that the craft looks amazing. Agreed. The nose is a bit too... pointy and small around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatalist Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 These deffinately look amazing. I do agree though with the others. The standard VF-171 uses the forward fuselage as you have it now, only less pointy. The VF-171 EX's use an almost VF-25 type forward fuselage and cockpit. Do a google image search on VF-171's and you'll see what I mean. Again, stunning work all around. If you're not in the 3D modelling biz for the entertainment industry, you should really consider it.

REN Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 yup i know!....damn!

Clay Cliff Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) Sweet! Those VF-171 look so great, but it's true, the nose seems a little pointy or maybe the cockpit is a little long, look at this picture: Maybe the same cockpit length and a more bulbous nose? The battloid leg units are too long, so the wing root chord is too long, resulting in the wing's trailing edge having a weird angle... I've been an aircraft modeller since a looong time, so I noticed it. Anyways, that's a very interesting job, I'll keep an eye on it.

Zinjo Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) I'd strongly suggest you check out March's Macross Mecha Manual. for reference materials. I'm not sure if I have anything more than what Marchy has, but I'll check my hard drive... Here are the links to the various VF-171s: VF-171 NUNS RVF-171 VF-171 EX Plus VF-171 EX Super All images are from official published sources Edited July 1, 2009 by Zinjo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
505thAirborne Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Thats amazing work REN!! They look more like a realistic toy or Model kit vs. something off an art program!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchizophrenicMC Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Man, the 171 is sexy. You really oughta fix the nose, and then it'll be uber-sexy like the real VF-171! And that animation was really cool. With Temjin, here. Want to see more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
