Prometheus Task Force Stealth Escort Destroyer

I will make the assertion that Macross Zero was not the project that featured Junya Ishigaki's intial Macross design. It is my belief that he designed this destroyer (or worked on it) prior to making the Asuka II or the Cheyenne Destroid. Compare the triangular stealth window panes and compare them to the Asuka II's in Macross Zero episode 2. (This could also mean that he could have had a hand in revamping the Prometheus' bridge tower design for the DYRL game opening animation as well.

FYI, and a Merry Christmas to all

Great job as always.

Thank you.

IMHO, It is a really nice-looking and interesting design. I created the waterline silhouette from over a half dozen of DVD screen captures, through layering, copying, and erasing.

This is the most we get to see of the ship: http://nanashi.macrossmecha.info/resrc/img...troyer-side.jpg

The whole time there were things (Prometheus' deck, flight crew, VF-1s, Hikaru's VF-1A's nose gear) obstructing in the foreground blocking a complete view of the ship.

He designed the Cheyenne Destroid and was the co-designer of the Asuka II. Before, Macross Zero he was mecha design for the video game Xenogears.
