  1. I wanted to paint one of these in Frontier colors, then realized how many white pinstripes I'd have to paint, ans decided that it wasn't worth the effort. The mecha collection models are well done kits, but I wish there was a 1/72 option for the 171.
  2. Frontier is 10 years old already, so it's time for some cannon fodder love
  3. The movie was a much needed kick in the nuts of the SF movie genre. Unfortunately, Blomkamp has yet to surpass it, but I still love his stuff. Does anybody follow his Oats Studios releases?
  4. I see you built your own Death Star... http://www.taghobby.com/archives/275383
  5. While not 100% exact to the movie design, the details look better than on Weta's own miniature. I found an earlier iteration of this kit here: https://ifun01.com/BD5K4FH.html
  6. I hope the Deep Striker was the start of a new Sentinel MG line. See you in October.
  7. I just noticed that Kawamori's line art has the rear wheels even further to the front. The ventral fins are supposed to fold upwards, but the nacelle itself would still be an issue.
  8. In one scene, we see the father go through radio frequencies, implying that there's nobody out there. It also seems that the other survivors are going down, since there are no other fires when the kids are on top of the silo. It could also be that the supremacy of the creatures comes with other factors such as a very high replication rate as long the food supplies allow. Imagine human-sized cockroaches.
  9. As nice as the kit is, that landing gear deserves an upgrade. It also looks like you need to bring down the bird horizontally...
  10. Just saw this, it's really an experience of it's own. Not only an original concept, but also so well made, and great acting by everyone. The movie really keeps it's feet on the ground and draws you in with the relatable characters. And despite the ever-present silence, there is great sound design at work, and the music had me at the edge of my seat.
  11. I'd take one of the dutch demo team stripes over those tigers.
  12. New Revell kits I'm liking the trailer so far, but who designed the hardware for the movie? Lego?
  13. There are unfortunate parallels, but IMO IKG builds up to a more intense climax with the twist after the storm. Of course, the main character demands a lot of patience until then. Don't know how the movies handles it, but the "reveal" scene in the comic and the way it is presented totally blew me away.
  14. Some scathing reviews at IMDB. I guess the trailer raised the wrong expectations.
