  1. Wow, that is disappointing. On the plus side, it may be cheaper for the cheaper body used, and you could spend a little on a phicen body (or equivalent) to try and replace it.
  2. A good movie. Not as great as it could have been, but not bad. I will see it again, and sit through to the end credits, because apparently there are two tacked on scenes. I only caught the first. It seemed a bit slow and choppy for the first half, and then it picked up for me. And yes, a bit rushed. This deserved another half hour at least, to let scenes 'breath,' to flesh out the villain and to wrap things up at the end. I'm really hoping that like BvS, we'll get an extended cut, as apparently the scenes that hit the floor instead of the real, tied things together better. As to our stars, they were all pretty good, in order of Gadot, Affleck and Momoa, followed by Miller and Fisher. I really liked Diana and Bruce's scenes best, but that's probably cause I really like Gadot as WW. Compared to Wonder Woman, I feel that movie was put together far better, from beginning to end. Again, JL was a bit choppy and abrupt. It's still good, but WW was great, and I would definitely rewatch Wonder Woman over JL if having to make a choice. Last thing, they screwed up when they fired JunkyXL! Except for the WW riff and themes reminiscent of '89 Batman, the soundtrack was pretty generic. In WW, the soundtrack was as much a part of the movie as the characters and helped to lead you through it. Here, not so much. I think Elfman phoned it in...
  3. Wow, great looking ship! Jean came out real nice. Now onto Nadia!!
  4. Oh, that's lovely right there! Love the shade of that red. Thanks! Now, I'm doing a lot of sanding. The bomb bay doors were a pretty poor fit, so that needed filler down the middle, and will need more scribing there. A lot of sanding has happened since...
  5. Cockpit done, Back to the fuselage.
  6. Very nice Jean!
  7. Enjoyed it all the way! Just wish they had drawn the humor down a notch, as it overshadowed the dramatic moments somewhat. Also, I'm wondering,
  8. That diorama of Macross Island is going to be soo cool! And I love those VF display cases! Just as you intended, the fighters look they are caught mid-flight!
  9. Binged it a few days ago. Loved it! There was not one moment of boredom anywhere, and yes, being the only ones in costume was funny. I like Max and think she is a great edition to the D&D Team.
  10. Nice work on the Garshish. As for painting figures, buy some cheap plastic action figures and practice on them. FSM also has a tutorial section on doing figure painting in their recent magazines. The design of that Workroid is coming along too. Can't wait to see it in plastic. Don't know how much yet! Probably best to err on the side of 'yeah' and hope that even a third is visible at the end.
  11. For my build, the office is almost done.
  12. You lucky bastage!! And I don't mean the model! Please tell me she watches Macross with you... Nice model though. Awesome big. Awesome costumes, both you and the kids!
  13. Haa! Love it!
  14. I'm doing a bit of that too! So far, I think I'm making more steps forward than backward. After the fuse, then it's onto the wings!
  15. Awesome work on that deck gun! Just fantastic! As for me, I'm digging them panel lines!
  16. If you didn't like it, then you don't like it. I've liked it from the start, and it has been improving.
  17. Do yourself a favor, and watch it! Up to episode six and, for me, it is only getting better as they go. The humor and drama - yes, there is drama - has leveled out really nicely. Even if you only want an escape show for an hour or so, the Orville is always a fun ride!
  18. Okay, liking this so dang much! A bit of misdirection going on though, I think. I think the part at the beginning, when she's talking about something inside her being awake, is the same conversation at the end, when she's asking for someone to show her where she belongs. I'm pretty sure she is also talking to Luke, and probably after his doubts first tell him not to train her. A lot of great things going on though. Plenty of space battles. Plenty FEELS, especially with Kylo's will he or won't he kill his mother. I would guess that killing his father wasn't as cathartic as he had hoped it would. And Snoke getting Rey there, more than likely follows after the scene with Kylo holding his hand out. Dang, can't wait until Dec!
  19. Nicely machined part!!
