    The original design for the Nazi flying wing by Ron Cobb had 4 or even 5 larger engines. The sketches are in the "Best of Lucasfilm Archives" artbook. edit: found one image

    This thread needs more Armored Core

    Wow, those pilot guys have some tight asses! But seriously, brilliant work, especially on the face.

    First pics from the Black Freighter sidestory are out: http://www.joblo.com/index.php?id=24962

    It looks amazingly beautiful, but the thought of transforming it even once really hurts my modeler's heat. Did you prime the metallic parts with gloss black or do you apply the Alclad directly on the plastic? The subltle shades work great. Regarding the canopy: I really think the locator pins to snap the parts onto the fuselage must be removed. They make the kit look like a toy.

    For compensation, you can get the Takara Cool Girl Asuka

    Argh, the SMS action base sold out, too, on HLJ.

    My suggestion would be to keep the current format with the kits sorted by maker and then provide links to MW members' galleries on the specific kit's page.

    There are blades made for use with a compass, and you can cut a circle from airbrush masking film with that. It might take a few atttemps until you hit the perfect diameter, but I find this method much more convenient than the masking tape way in this kind of situations.

    It would be nice if some could scan the glorious boxart.

    I was under the impression the "New Frontiersman" wasn't exactly the newspaper with the best reputation. More like these websites that tell you what "really" happened at 9/11.

    Thank you for stealing my plan. My own build is forever on hold since I want to recast the legs and use them on my Bandai Battroid. I also made a vacuformed canopy, IMO a must for an otherwise beautiful kit.

    You are right. I hate you.

    Scans of the new Model Grafix issue are up. http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?m20ykwdlp2j It has the VF-25 Battroid with a detailed upgrade guide, armored VF-0, VF-4 Battroid, and the Aoshima Moto Slave! You'll also see a VF-25 in an interesting aggressor paint scheme...

    I think it falls back on the talent of the writer (and the support of the studio). If the producers stick to the original too much, you end up basically with a piece of fan-fiction (see also: the Trek movies). I was a big fan of the original Galactica in my youth and I love the new series all the more, because they ignored all the fandom and developed an original update to modern day (ok they also happened to get some capable actors and brilliant CGI). Some established heroes also get a well-needed kick in the a$$ within their own media (Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight" Batman and Howard Chaykin's "The Shadow" come to mind) and I expect no less from movie remakes.

    Especially since she is wearing only half of the bikini.

    I agree that the mechanical design of Ikuto Yamashita has yet to be surpassed. Does anybody have a clue what is going on in his Dengeki Hobby Magazine side story "NGE Anima"?

    Is that the Fine Molds kit? Don't forget to post pics of the finished model.

    Model Grafix: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=V147IKGI Next issue has the Battroid.

    Even more crucial: Who will play Faye?

    Now that you mention it - is that it?

    What I'm collecting at the moment: I kill giants A somewhat twisted child's story published by Image, I love the art and storytelling. The final issue lies ahead, can't wait to see where it will go in the end. http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=16178 DMZ Civil war in the US. Manhattan is the DMZ, where journalist Matty Roth tries to survive the struggles of the powers that rule this world. I read the TPBs, and each one of them is like a really great movie. http://www.dccomics.com/vertigo/graphic_novels/?gn=5272 The Nightly News Very twisted story and very wicked art by Jonathan Hickman. Gives graphic storytelling a well-deserved kick in the butt. http://www.pronea.com/tnn.html
