Sweet!

What's even better.... a Macross Zero CG Book seems on its way too!

Hmmm.....I hope it is on the way, but there is always a possibility that they are just pages from the Macross Zero book that was already cancelled.

What book is this?

I wonder if the picture with yf-19 battroid was a prototype cover for a possible hase yf-19 battroid, pretty cool.

You mean this one?

Misunderstanding on my part. It looked like the Tenjin book was advertising a seperate Macross Zero CG book to me, but I don't that is the case.

I know about the one that was cancelled but it sounded like someone was saying another one was coming out.

Very Confusing :unsure:

Oh man, how the heck do I get a copy of this. I wonder if I can order it on Japan Amazon.com.

You can order it from either Hobby Link Japan or amazon.co.jp.

Note, you have to sign up to use amazon.co.jp, you cannot use your regular amazon.com account. However, they have an page in English for signing up, so it's not difficult. I've ordered many times from them and they ship far quicker than HLJ.

Its hard for me to say right now but, can anyone tell me what exactly tenjin does to illustrate? Does he do 3d CG modeling programs or just straight up drawing>? Either way it is beautiful and right now I am out of the looop concerning his works, this si the reason I ask. HAd no idea he did the macross plus poster back in 2000, that one was badass

IMO he is skilled both in 3d CG, graphic programs and straight up drawing and use them for his illustration.

Anyways I think its written in his profile if someone can translate.

As there's been a few threads recently complaining about the slow order processing/delivery time with HLJ, I decided to try an experiment.

When the Tenjin book was first announced several weeks ago, I placed a preorder at the same time with both HLJ and amazon.co.jp. The preorders were placed just minutes apart.

It will be interesting to see what the time difference is between the arrival of the books from the two companies.

well, I stopped by my local kinokuniya bookstore and placed an order of 2 and they said it'll take a good 4 to 6 weeks to arrive. Man that's long! <_<:p:D:lol:

Mine arrived yesterday afternoon (Monday April 18) from amazon.co.jp. Still no news from HLJ about my order with them.

As Nanashino said, it is an awesome book and if you are a fan of Tenjin's art or just a fan of nicely drawn VFs, then you owe it to yourself to order this book.

The book contains the following artwork: -

  • All of Tenjin's Hasegawa Macross model box art, up to and including the VF-1A/J/S fighter kit released last month.
  • Tenjin's art from the Japanese Macross Plus, Macross Zero & SDF-Macross DVDs.
  • Tenjin's box art and promotional art for the Playstation games; VF-X2 and Macross Plus Game Edition.
  • Tenjin's art from the Macross 2000 calendar.
  • Some newly created art, such as the cover art, a picture of Roy and a large folding VF-1 pic at the back of the book.
  • Various work that Tenjin did for the Macross Zero OVA.
  • One non-Macross picture, a Spitfire MK I.

Great book.
