Shameless, venturing outside of the thread... but you know what, what do you have to be ashamed of? Awesomeness? It's not a crime. I can't wait to see what comes next from you guys.

Why do my eyes keep focusing straight on the weird hip joint?

Hmmm.... nosecone envy?

J/k -- but the joint is pretty standard and lineart accurate (check out http://www.collectiondx.com/gallery2/gallery/d/457358-1/vf-1-transformation5.gif vs http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=78005), and also the straight-on render at http://homepages.nyu.edu/~pfb206/bat-toy.jpg).... I think it looks a little strange due to the very wide-angle lens I rendered the image with, in order to get maximum foreshortening and the kind of leggy, dynamic presentation you see at the end of the Macross opening credits.

No nosecone envy here , just a "skills" envy ......

Good work Doc

Hmmm... the pose is a little awkward looking, but that's one damn fine CG modeling job you did there.

Thanks Seto! Posing, admittedly, has never been one of my strong suits.
