  1. As nice as the kit is, that landing gear deserves an upgrade. It also looks like you need to bring down the bird horizontally...
  2. 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.
  3. I'd take one of the dutch demo team stripes over those tigers.
  4. New Revell kits I'm liking the trailer so far, but who designed the hardware for the movie? Lego?
  5. 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.
  6. Some scathing reviews at IMDB. I guess the trailer raised the wrong expectations.
  7. I grabbed a bunch of Bandai's Gundam Decals for the MG Unicorn in 1/100 and 1/144, so I can go Katoki on my kits. The recent sheet for the RG Sinanju looks promising, too. For the Hamma, I painted the pieces with a darker color, and then highlighted the inner surfaces with the final color. It's a bit tricky to find a graduation that is noticeable, but doesn't jump you in the face. A little un-evenness in the application breaks up these huge plain surfaces nicely.
  8. Anubis, I like your color choice and shading, and the subtle use of decals. _ I really enjoyed building my first RE/100 kit. I love their interpretation of the original design, and you get a lot of plastic for your money. Built straight from the box with minor details added. And yes, I switched the front skirts because I think it looks cooler that way. More photos here
  9. Just finished that Big Bad Guy More photos here
  10. I'm not sure if Star Wars is a franchise that needs something original in the first place. But JJ gave us Lost, so I'm confident he'll find a deeply satisfying end to the current trilogy...
  11. ^ so say we all...
  12. I still wonder which cruel twist of fate made a high profile artist as Brian Wood end up in this mess. I had high opinions on his work for DMZ and Channel Zero.
  13. Gazillions of P-Bandai spin-offs in 3...2...1...
  14. The robot reminds me of Titan AE
  15. You can't have too many thrusters...
  16. The Macross decals seem to be a special kind of bad. I don't have any problems with Bandai's Gundam Decal sets.
  17. I have tried this tape and don't see any advantages over the regular Tamiya masking tape. The white tape is stiffer, making it unusable on uneven surfaces or where you have to cross raised or recessed details. If you cut thin stripes from the yellow tape, you can make it follow curved contours as well.
  18. I mostly miss Nephtis, and I wouldn't mind a Jehuty with the Overkill Pack. Lots of the enemy grunts are also pretty interesting.
