Rodavan Posted December 2, 2008 Posted December 2, 2008 (edited) On Business trip in Germany it is cold and wet , so I decided to model something .. Modeled in Rhino so far........ Edited December 2, 2008 by Rodavan Quote
Brianw76 Posted December 2, 2008 Posted December 2, 2008 (edited) Great Start!! You have got to share those with us when you're finished. I'm too lazy to make some for my valk I've always wanted to recreate this shot from Final Fantasy: Spirits Within with a valk and booster. Edited December 2, 2008 by Brianw76 Quote
DatterBoy Posted December 2, 2008 Posted December 2, 2008 (edited) Yeah! Rod! Back on the board with new works! Lookin good! Edited December 2, 2008 by DatterBoy Quote
Rodavan Posted December 4, 2008 Author Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) Some updates , the top "saddles" was more work than I thought ..... Edited December 4, 2008 by Rodavan Quote
big F Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 That looks great. I wonder if you could do some work for the new Macross World Homeworld 2 mod group. see Quote
Rodavan Posted December 11, 2008 Author Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) Thanks guys Update , my laptop is not strong enought to handle calcs anymore ....... will have to wait to get home in 2 weeks time to make major updates on this assembly... Edited December 11, 2008 by Rodavan Quote
big F Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Can I venture that these two threads may be of use. Both parties are doing similar things and some mutual work would be very beneficial to all involved. www.macrossworld.com topic 27793 and www.macrossworld.com topic 28292 I am going to post reference to this in both these threads as I do believe that this could be constructive.

chillyche Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 Thanks guys Update , my laptop is not strong enought to handle calcs anymore ....... will have to wait to get home in 2 weeks time to make major updates on this assembly... Man, let's get this guy a new laptop so he can keep it real at home OR on the road. Quote

Mr March Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 Models are looking good. I love the Mauler RO-X2A high-powered double-action beam cannon. One of my favorite heavy weapons in Macross. Quote

Rodavan68 Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 (edited) chillyche - I am very busy normally .... Modeling is just a hobby and for fun . There are oldtimers here that can model here with best : Doctor Gonzo , Brain76 , Chrono and Datterboy , just to name a few , ask them too , you'd be suprised I forgot how much fun it was to model , shows what a holiday can do you .... Edited December 27, 2008 by Rodavan68 Quote
Rodavan Posted December 29, 2008 Author Posted December 29, 2008 Been trying to figure out mechanism , and found these , part of the last 5min of macross movie Quote
Brianw76 Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 I forgot how much fun it was to model , shows what a holiday can do you .... I blew up my computer doing my final for character design class. I haven't been able to touch 3D stuff all break. But I did get some time to play that Macross game for PSP. I have a quad core, dual video card machine coming tomorrow so I can warm up with 3D Studio Max before school starts again. I hope I'll still have a chance to work on some Macross models before my break is over. Quote

Lestat Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I just want to say, that's a very sexy model with the launch arm. Thre are plenty of valk models around, but it's this more complicated stuff that gets my blood pumping. Keep up the good work. Quote

Rodavan Posted January 8, 2009 Author Posted January 8, 2009 Thanks Lestat and chillyche Been redoing Booster body , it's taken till last night to get somemthing that looks right and will fit correctly on the legs and have some space in between boosters. I will redo little "saddles" on top they look to thick Quote
Lestat Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 Thanks Lestat and chillyche Been redoing Booster body , it's taken till last night to get somemthing that looks right and will fit correctly on the legs and have some space in between boosters. I will redo little "saddles" on top they look to thick I really love your stuff man. Good skills, obvious love for the series. What happened to your scout ship? Ever think of doing something more daunting, like the nupetiet vergnitzs?? Quote
Rodavan Posted January 20, 2009 Author Posted January 20, 2009 Thank you Lestat My problem is time , real live earn the money so it comes first ...... I did some modeling last night nor much , but adding some of the small detail . Model is still a solid model in Rhino , will hopefully finish it this weekend , then the rail and "base" Quote
Rodavan Posted January 23, 2009 Author Posted January 23, 2009 Found this launch vehicle for the booster , after rail , that will be the next item to model Quote
Rodavan Posted January 24, 2009 Author Posted January 24, 2009 Booster 90% finished , added some "rivets" for fun , let me know what you think of them , underside not complete as rail will help there . Detail writing on booster body also needs to be done ... Quote
DatterBoy Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Rod, I ain't got no love for the booster but your work is awesome as always! :Dat Quote
