I dont understand the cockpit on these two..is it "inside" that dark tunnel? If so wouldnt that be horrible visibility or do they mostly rely on cameras / video screens?

What is lying on your workbench?
SpacePirateNeko replied to Tuffskull's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
This is what im currently working on. Ertl AT-AT. The first two pictures are just a prime with a pre wash ...i use black oil paints for washes. The second two pictures are an attempt to do a first coat of airbrushing ..as you can see the paint came out speckled and not very smooth however it came out alot better then any previous airbrush attempt thanks mostly to This website Thier tips on thinning and using alcohol helped alot. I think if i eliminated the speckling this would have been an amazing job...of course until my airbrush decided to stop releasing liquid -
What is lying on your workbench?
SpacePirateNeko replied to Tuffskull's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Well this is what i worked on last ...it was all hand painted. I used just the primary colors + black and white tamiya acrylics and a chrome color to make the 20 some different types of metal. I didnt know the difference between most metals so i used the box image as my best judegement for what colors to mix. Of course in teh end the intricate motor was covered completely by the see through green plastic. Anyway im pretty proud of this one and theres only a few i can say that about. -
sort of like this one but an older model is what i use...i have to attach my airbrush hose to the air compressor hose since the hose outlet on the compressor is too large For those in the cali area maybe we could set up some workshops at the next mwcon ....its easier to learn from the masters when its in person
-
everythings thinned properly ...ive had the brush for two years and ive always had that effect ive tried every thinning mixture possible and a wide variety of paints zentrandude might have hit on it though ...the motor running ..my compressor runs out of air too fast so i usually run the mototr at the same time either way only air comes out now so ...

Ok enough is enough ive had this airbrush for two years ( a pasche duel action ) and ive tried every solution possible. wether it be huge speckles . chunks of paint or whatnot tonight was the last straw. Working on an at at that ive waited forever to finish....and then the paint decides to stop coming out. Tried everything , took it apart ...the thing is i dont care anymore. I clean and run the airbrush the way it should be maintained. Ok so whats a decent dual airbrush i can purchase in the 150ish and below range

OT: Video Games too expensive?
SpacePirateNeko replied to Tico0001's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Wow you gotta be kidden me games are so cheap these days compared to what they once were. I remember it being a big deal getting mario bros 2 back in the day because of its 55 dollar price tag. Later on in the snes days i saved up enough for the release of ff3 ( 6 ) and then when i got to the store it turned out to be 80$ because it was a rare initial low stock release...i had to borrow 20 bucks.....was still worth the price at the time i payed 75 for ocarina of time when it was released ....was a last copy and no more were to arrive until after christmas and that was over a month and a half away I dont know i see many new releases going for 40 bucks these days and i can generally walk into a gamestop or EB and pick up a game thats only a month or two old for 20 bucks... 4- 5 months old for 15 bucks its funny though when you think some of these games you can now download in seconds and emulate once cost 50 bucks each back in the late 80s imagine paying 50 dollars for balloon fight -
yikes...oh and i like the controller

Star Wars TV Series set between Ep 3 and 4
SpacePirateNeko replied to Magnus's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
It will be a live action version of the old DROIDS! cartoon and comic! actually if it were i wouldnt mind.i think it would be quite interesting and youd be able to include innumerable stories and story arcs..star wars was always intended as the story that takes place around these two out of place droids -
I always like hearing what Jemstone has to say actually , i dont always agree with her statements but they are always well thought out and from a unique perspective. Btw why do people keep calling her a hippie , hippies believed in free love and non censorship , her ideals were conservatalist in nature Anyway heres a picture of salad fingers for no apparent reason Salad Fingers

Star Wars Episode 3 Spoilers Thread
SpacePirateNeko replied to zeo-mare's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Er...the comic was already scanned and online about a week ago. See that makes this stupid gag order all the more ridiculous. Shoulda figured it would have been leaked. That's a possibility but it would make for the ultimate suck for those of us they had sign gag orders. Wait you had to sign a gag order? -
Yes you get a very detailed cockpit view..using the mouse or if your flight stick has a "look around" swivel button like the one i use you can look in any direction while you are piloting. There are also two kinds of multipilot craft. Some like the y wing has the pilot main gunner seat and secondary gunner positions that are both locked. Other multipilot craft are actual full blown ships you can unlock from the pilot position and walk around the ship. You can have up to 20 people " as many as you can fit in a group" onboard your ship at the same time. These ships also have other gunner positions other players can walk to and lock onto. YOu can customize your craft with furniture and anything else you can customize a house with. So while your piloting others can walk around your ship...its very cool. I made my yaht into a a space cantina/disco called the startropica...of course lots of little goings on occur on the second floor behind the stage. In addition to cockpit view you can also do FPV w/o the cockpit and while in cockpit view you can pull back on the mousewheel and youll go into behind the ship view...further you pull back the further distance youll get. You can move the mouse around to get all different views ...great for pictures.
