  1. This proves that you don't need american designers to mess up a perfect mecha design.
  2. The Draken and Viggen are indisputable beautiful and powerful design classics. The Rafale is the best looking of the modern 4th gen. fighters IMO.
  3. Michael Green is no longer listed at IMDB as a writer, instead director Josh Trank is given writing credits, so maybe there is some hope.
  4. Matthew Vaughn (X-Men: First Class) is producing, with Josh Trank (Chronicle) as providing the script and directing, which is at least promising. But IMDB already lists Seth Grahame-Smith (Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter) for script revisions, so maybe we're already heading for another disaster. edit: drad, I missed the other thread...
  5. The Gripen is still the most boring 4th gen designs in the air. It's the equivalent of a Volkswagen Golf. The Eurofighter is boring, too, but it still has that edge of ugliness.
  6. Dobber, this is the Gun Platform (or Mobile Fortress) from the 2004 Appleseed movie. Watch it dishing out mayhem and destruction here: If you read the manga, don't bother to watch the rest of the movie... I started painting the details and installed clear Wave eyes:
  7. The kit is quite small; seeing how they tower over city blocks in the movie I'd put it in the 1/1000 region.
  8. Things are beginning to take shape
  9. I did not read the comics, but I really enjoyed the first movie. Like Tarantino, Matthew Vaughn plays with superhero & gangster clichés with a distinct visual style and humor, including the over the top violence. It helps if you like other Vaughn/Guy Ritchie movies, like Layer Cake, Snatch, or RocknRolla. BTW Vaughn is listed as a producer on the Fantastic Four reboot, along with Josh Trank (Chronicle) as director.
  10. I think the problem is that the people who made "Machete" where fully aware that they were making a B-Movie while the people who made "Hansel & Gretel" were complete morons.
  11. Welcome to the modeling world... This kit Looks seriously over-engineered, including the packaging.
  12. Easily the best JJPrise build I've seen so far. Please don't abandon this.
  13. I think you really set the benchmark for tedious work. If only the people working on world peace & the cure for cancer had such enthusiasm... - Meanwhile, back in Olympus:
  14. Thank you for bringing up Dragonslayer, the effects work was spectacular at the time, and the rest of the movie is quite good, too. If you can do without knights, I'd like to add "The Dark Crystal" to the list of "good fantasy movies before LOTR".
