This picture is made of EPIC WIN!!!!!!! Nice find! :D

It looks like a trace of a page from Mikimoto's Macross: the First. If you wanna see that exact same scene drawn by Mikimoto himself, it's in Macross: the First Vol.1.

I've seen a few pics but can't remember where I can see all of it. Any ideas? ^_^

I'm curious about the SV-51 works. It just seems like they're illustrations from a story that someone's written. It would be an interesting side-story about the goings-on on Earth during the time period that the SDF-1 was out in space.

Well, I found some information about it thanks to Google translator...

Apparently those are the works of an artist called "Inui"...

At each image's page there's a little description with part of a story on it. Is about a Meltran girl who befriends a U.N. Spacy pilot and helps him through his career. The first pics have him pilot a SV-51 with soviet markings on it. Then he pilots a VF-1A, a VF-4 and finally a VF-11. I wonder if is possible the U.N. Spacy used the remaining SV-51s for atmospheric combat against the Zentradi?

Here's another pic of them... post-7862-127821261352_thumb.jpg

Yeah, that's what I was kind of getting at. Interesting decision to design the Meltran as a VF-girl, though. Too bad it's not in English...

I don't remember where I read it, but there was something out there about how the SV-51 was, indeed, used to help defend the Earth from the Zentraedi invasion.

**I just quickly browsed the Macross-related art on Pixiv and I see there are two others in that series that showcase a VF-4 and VF-11 in the same color scheme as the SV-51. Some interesting works on there, but the limited returns on my search (due to me not having an account) didn't show anything that really jumped out at me.
