How are you priming your models? It looks like you're perhaps using a spray can of Tamiya primer, but you aren't warming it up with warm water and shaking it for a minute properly. I see a lot of splatter that's giving your unwanted texture. If you prep it properly, it shouldn't come out fuzzy like that. Either that or you're airbrushing it and it's not thinned enough.

Went and watched this with my littles. It was complete nonsense, but the kids loved it. Man... sandwich. Manwich? Still trying to process it. -
Have to say kinda dissapointing....just a collection of everything available in other books, magazines, etc.... Was sort of hoping it would be more like what they did for the Kawamori Designer's Note....oh well....guess the ultimate Mikimoto book will need to wait....

As long as you don't walk out with two of the special tins, a special cup and a plushie you'll be good....lol -
The teaser handled Krypto really well. He showed up, Supes said take me home, and Krypto dragped him home. Quick, neat and simple. 'Who's a good boi?!' If it is left in, then that seriously undercuts expectations of Supes facing a dire threat if the drama is not allowed to grow. It suffers crib-death.

I hope Disney bring back Uprising
-
I came across a Tamashii Nations pop up store. Picked up the J. Missed out when it first came out, and the re release last year.
-
It was a punchline the moment they showed Krypto at all
-
And, at the risk of quoting myself, a better suit than this new version... One thing that need to go before finally showing this in theater - get rid of Krypto jumping all over a wounded Superman! The first teaser built up this dramatic moment of Supes being hurt - badly! - and now it's a comic punch-line..? This is what I am afraid of seeing more of, dramatic moments being one-upped with a joke. Most of everything else I've seen (except for the eye thing) is looking good - just dump that!

It looks good so far. We see Sam in there for a moment, so I hope we end up seeing Qura as well - and that neither are killed off in the first ten minutes, Or hour. Or two... If they do, I will walk out. As to apparently there being no Tron, I wonder if Leto is a reboot of the character? At the end of Legacy, he's last seen drifting in the water, so I am wondering if an AI version of Flynn found and rebooted him. As to grid powers, I wonder if they have to be innate rather than imbued? Or if that real-world question will even matter..? And I really hope they don;t rely on 'other media' to fill in gaps. I don't do comics,and if they can't reference it in the movie they shouldn't touch it.

Or if it’s not just a side story. Somehow, I doubt it would be a retelling of the og series

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
TG Remix replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
Going back to finish up my findings for M3, because there's not much to talk about worldbuilding wise. Episode 6 has the level take place in Planet Dahan, a resource planet which from its illustration looked like it only has 5 Namekian minutes left. But it seems important enough that if the terrorist group "Struggle" (made out of Zentradi defectors of course,) invaded the planet and destroyed the energy satellite system, the United Forces would have a energy deficit of 5% a year, severing limiting fleet operations. I'm not sure if we know more planets like those in the bigger franchise, the only exception being the coal mine in Planet Banipal Isamu was threatened with in Plus, and the remote planet from The Galaxy Is Calling Me with its Barunasium Ore. Episode 5 and 8 has its setting on Planet Susia, it's described to have volcanic activity, and in the former's case it proves to be a problem where UN had to locate their Weapons Development plant there somewhere else due to it getting higher than usual. I'd question why you'd have one on a planet that's characterized by such, but once I saw it was essentially a giant mobile platform traversing through the Scarlet Desert, it made a tad bit more sense. The 8th and final one didn't make it clear if a civilian population is on there, just that there's a UN Spacy headquarters that Iron Discipline (ANOTHER guerilla Zentradi group, you think they'd just combine them all into one instead of having them be almost entirely unconnected) targets, after being the threat in Episode 5. The biggest takeaway is the previously mentioned "sisters" of Moaramia being the attackers specifically, of course that and the reveal that... Episode 7 is the most outstanding one in terms of worldbuilding. For the mission where all three Dancing Skulls members reunite, the stage that sets on Planet Belfan is the most dire, as Lawrence Junkemar, a deputy consultant of the UN, was kidnapped when he visited the planet by anti-UN insurgents who took over the UN's secret base there. Negotiations seemed fruitless as it was seen as impossible to free the political prisoners, with the Algencius' Captain remarking that an autonomous and independent government in Belfan as an impossibility. With Neo York's New York Liberation League, and Cristrania's Zentradi fundamentalists with notable Anti-UN activity being hidden from the central government, and the final plot with Moa being the focus, it's interesting how as a semi-prequel to VF-X2's conflict between the central Earth government and colonial planets and emigrant fleets, showing the cracks and gears spinning of Earth's practical but very flawed ideology of having full control over their sphere to make sure future threats won't happen again. And as I said I'd mention before, the reason why Max and Milia, was brought back for this mission, despite being the captain of the stealth cruiser Haruna and the director of the Eagle Nest Air Combat Center respectively, was that apparently some radical members of the regular army stationed at Belfan proposed an incursion to wipe out the enemy forces in the base, but as high command was very doubtful about their efficiency due to their inexperience, they wanted the Dancing Skull squad to preempt the regular army's arrival so the moderate Belfan faction wouldn't have to poke the bear with the hardline/radicals. And since this is the mission where you can pilot the brand new YF-11 prototype, it really reads as a publicity stunt for the sake of central UN morale if anything else, adding on to the conflict that accumulates with Latence around 2 decades after. It was to the point that the high command wanted the entire site wiped out, but opted to have a covert mission taken care of because a large scale offensive would reveal its existence to the public. Maybe that's how Mikumo later on was able to go under the radar even after the reveal. So that explains the two different designations, although I never heard of the AIF-3Ex/QF-3100EX until now! I'm assuming it's under a novelization or some kind of short story? Would also explain why the Neo Glaug bis was described to have electronic warfare functions that can have it control 2 QF-3000Es, something that's several decades behind alongside the VF-1! -
Let me know if you find info on a lost Assault Suit Leynos ova that I have no idea exists, but really would love to see
-
Probably never. The At-At is kind of a huge sitting duck design that looks awesome in a movie, but pretty much useless otherwise. An unmanned tank is much more practical for everything from repairs and overall budget and low to the ground to avoid being an easy target. I love mecha as much as any Macross fan, but most of the cool stuff is only meant for fantasy rather than reality. as far as this Kawasaki thingy, it’s not necessarily impossible, but it’s definitely gonna be a rich dudes toy that probably goes the way of the segway, basically a forgotten fad at best death trap at worst. It didn’t seem to be able to do much that someone skilled with a cheap dirtbike couldn’t really handle
-
I’m pretty sure they aren’t. Although I don’t doubt the movie version of the battroid kits will be coming up fairly soon since they’ve done quite a few of the tv variants already. I think that as far as major ones for the show, it would just be the M&M 1-J s and cannon fodder 1A. There’s a few that have those brief but cool showings, but I think that since they’ve done quite just released the super and strike fighters that movie battroids will be very soon
-
No paladin pack, sorry, just this oeange color version and another that matches Klan's purple valk. Interesting that both go heavier on the color than the "standard" packs (they all have white caps with colored edges, whereas both of these have colored caps with white edges), but no other hidden toys that I've found so far. And, yeah, that experimental human pose folder....it has been deleted. 😁 Once I get to putting people in the scenes I'll start over fresh with what I've learned and hopefully not duplicate any of the triple jointed, broken armed things my first tries got me.
-
I'm actually thinking of seeing this on the big screen..I like the music, so far and the visuals are great! Clearly this is the peak result of Legacy's ending. I'm really curious to see what stories the comics have been telling prior to this. I've pretty much dropped the ball on that medium. And i'm assuming there's going to be more comic stories following up to this. Also , i wouldn't put it past Disney to digitally cameo Tron or at the very least hint at his story. He could be the returning savior in the sequel to this movie.
-
Luckily for Disney nobody really remember BB when they hear Tron. They remember the unique visual FX. This movie is looking like it is worth a trip to the theater. It seems going from the Digital World to the real world allows keeping the powers from the digital world - though that didn't work for the humans that went digital and came back.
