I would guess 'A' as well. It looks to be a CF for another squadron.

Shhhh!!! You'll ruin the big surprise!!!

Aaron- Follow the link in my signature to Yellowlightman's Macross Fan Creations site. You can see artwork there from many of our talented artists. Myersjessee and >EXO<- The majority of my work is either a pencilled or penned sketch. Anything colored is done through Photoshop 7.0

That is really cool BoB... but why isn't he nearly showing his private parts?!? BTW- You can post things a maximum of 600 pixels wide here. I think that's a general rule set forth by the mods. Let's find out how it looks when it's bigger, eh?

Thanks guys! Burn- they're on their way. JB- I actually have 3 on my mind at the moment and one of them does happen to be a MAXL... As to an avatar? I don't know how well it "shrinks". Let's take a look. If you like it, you're more than welcome to use it.

Here's a handy guide for future reference: LOL- Data's daughter with her name spelled wrong. Bump- ...and grind. IIRC- The sound your significant other makes once they've realised you just dropped next month's rent on a toy. LMAO- Short for "Lil Mao', the Communist Rap Superstar. (bling) ROTFL- Kind of like the ROTC, but lamer. ROTFLMAO- Same as ROTFL, but your down with 'Lil Mao. (bling)

Here we go:

If you want I'll send you the nice .tif version of it if you want to try to make a T-shirt of it.

*ahem

The breasts popping out under the chestplate look a tad goofy to me. Otherwise- Skol!!!

I don't know what's worse- Being a Brownie CF pilot for Skull Squadron or a Purply CF pilot for the Longhorns.

I think the transformable ones look OK in fighter and Gerwalk mode, but I'd have to agree with everyone else that the Battroid mode sucks. I do like the pic of the non-transformable Hikaru kicking the Regult over.

I really can't wait until The Dark Tower is finished, and then I can go back and read all of Stephen King's novels to see how many are connected to it.

The Anti-UN would have to have bases, fleets and fixed sturctures just like the UN. You can't fight an entire war with offensive weapons only. Plus, the only tactics we have seen from them involve a wolfpack of SV-51's. There have probably been much larger, non hit-and-run engagements using more conventional (non-overtech) weapons and tactics. I definately agree on that. Also, you must remember that destroids aren't only for combat. Look at the Spartan. That thing barely has any attack ability, but it has arms for lifting heavy objects. I'd assume the Anti-UN would look into such a design if it gained the funds to do so. Well I don't know about that... The Spartan is loaded with guns in it's central chest and has two missile racks on each shoulder. ...and a billy club.

Ahhh... Sentinel... The Best. OK, I'm curious: What is the actual references for the Blue (018) Zeta Gundam? All I've seen is a picture of a Gundam Girl in Blue 018 in the Sentinel Book. I'm not asking because I'm stupid. It's just just that references for the obscure stuff we love is few and far between.

More information regarding it will be issued as more information comes in. Thanks for your patience! Make of it what you will. Sounds to me that BW didn't like TokyoPop involving HG. What ever the outcome it seems to me that HG has more than proven that they're willing to have Macross and RT co-exist. As long as they get a piece of the action. I think the whole point is whether or not they deserve a piece of the action. It's been said of both sides before- HG and BigWest- that both companies are only trying to secure the rights of what they believe is theirs. So, theoretically (drunk man), if BigWest thinks that HG has no rights whatsoever and, hence, pulls the plug on TokyoPop's pipeline, is that wrong? Well, for us fans- Yes. We're itching for a legit version of Trash (hell, even Wrylac is, the loveable chump! ). But remember that both BigWest and HG are profit-minded companies. They walk the fine line between marketability and fan-service. It's a tough job. And I'm drunk. Just call me Roy.

P.S.- Effect- you shouldn't have editted your post. It was valid and thought-provoking. Damn your eyes, Effect. Damn them!

It could be because HG is a business. They've used Macross as an "exclusive" product with which they can market to the enthusiast and/or hardcore anime fan. To make Macross as readily available would affect further marketing of RT. I cannot blame them for attempting to make RT more accessible than Macross, since it definitely helps their market.

Steers and Queers Steers and Queers Where you come from all Steers and Queers And you ain't got no horns, boy! (yessir, yessir) These pics from Graham make me think more and more that your character is part of the "Longhorn" Squadron. Purple Schemes aside, I think it'd be great either way if you can customize your paintsheme... especially a squadron logo. Like who WOULDN'T want to be a member of the Sweatin' To The Oldies Squadron?

"The Plot is Getting Thin..." (old school Poster Children lyric)

That's personal opinion. At least the VF-X games could figure out how to keep the wings in Battroid mode...

I respect your opinion, and I wholeheartedly agree that the later books make for more entertainment by way of story telling. King is definitely a killer story teller, and Wizard & Glass is substantially a great story. What I mean to say, is that the original work was of a much darker, edgier character than the latter, and King seems to be moving further and further away from his original conception of The Gunslinger; this I lament. The original book was not so much an exercise in story-telling as it was a kind of mysterious noir abstraction, a narrative for its own sake.... At least that's my opinion. Thankee Sai! [bows Comically] Ahh... I see what you're getting at now. And I agree with your statement. But as a whole, I see The Dark Tower as anything else that takes time: It grows. Every novel of The Dark Tower (to me) has shown a different aspect of Mr. King's writing. I like them as they go on, probably, because the characters develop as well as the story itself. Wizard and Glas brought in a perspective not unlike most of ours: of a young man and his friends who are impulsive and are extremely idealistic. I felt it brought much more character into Roland because it shows him not only as the cold hard man he has become, but that he was once also young and compulsive. Something he has either let leave, or forced, out of his life. Something which we see begin to grow again throughout The Gunslinger intil now. He is learning that, maybe, his mission is not the only thing that matters. He is learning to care again. Now will that frakk him up in the end? Possibly... Who knows? But I think the story, as a whole, gets better with every new edition. And that's a lot to say, in this day and age.

that was the Little Sisters of Eluria from Everythings Eventual. they also make a cameo in the Black House. It also appears as The Dark Tower: The Little Sisters of Eluria In the fantasy anthology Legends. The book itself also features short stories set in the Discworld (Terry Pratchett- one of my favorite authors), The Sword of Truth (Terry Goodkind), The Wheel of Time (Robert Jordan) and Memory, Sorrow and Thorn (Tad Williams- which is my favorite trilogy ever... even over LOTR) BTW- Here's a scan from the first page of Legends... you figure it out. I think it embodies the whole fantastical feel of the Dark Tower...

It's been a while for me as well. I'm eagerly anticipating The Wolves of Calla. I'd have to disagree with Hiriyu, though. I think the stories get better with every book out, and Wizard and Glass is my favorite (for now ). What's your favorite cross-over? Mine is the one part in one of the Dark Tower books where Roland (or the narrative) mentions how he met two brothers who were searching for an evil wizard (surprisingly named Flagg- a recurring theme for Mr. King), which is an obvious reference to one of my favorite King novels, The Eyes of the Dragon.
