Hikuro

lol probably a 36 year old robotech fanny

Second picture looks so fake...yet the first one doesn't look to fake...but sorta does you know? To much shadow...uhhh, not to mention the second one looks fake cause wasn't it ani's left arm he lost first? So shouldn't his left arm be mechanical while his right arm is burnt to nothing? I don't know....

I just saw this at HLJ, it seems alot of Casshan has been kept for the movie it just looks different right now. I compared it to a previous scuplt of the animem version and I so like this one better.

Hikaru never once in the tv series flew a VF-1A. According to flight tests, simulations etc, the more skilled the pilot is, the more "privlages" one shall have. Since Hikaru has won many flight competitions not to mention maybe just MAYBE Roy putting in a good word for him got him to be a top knotch pilot. There is a scene where he has an unpainted VF-1J during his training shooting at stuff, never do you see him piloting a VF-1A unless it's animation error when an episode's animation turned, "Crappy" cause if so, than you can say even Roy piloted a VF-1A in the series... The J variant was also discussed as being a Jr Officers fighter, those with high skills and great potential. Now before you say, "But what about max?" I believe max even states he was very inexperinced and later when he got use to the flow of battle he became some what of a genius. You never hear how he actually did during all those tests he took, nor if he had any prior experince before signing up with the UN Spacy forces...unlike Hikaru.

Okay I think I've pretty much changed my mind on the Jack Archor VF-1A, I'm actually getting very use to Decals now too, after doing a few car kits it just starts to get really easy... Anyways, so what would I need to do to make a nice looking VF-1A, either max, hikaru or kahazaki I don't care which. For sure I'd have to have black spray paint (I can get Tamiya easily but it's like 3 bucks a can) for the primer coat...than an airbrush and use flat white to cover up the primer but giving the weathered down effect, it should also highlite the panel lines shouldn't it? Also...when putting on the decals, how do I keep the panel lines showing instead of being covered up by the decals...is there some special lil trick to do? And when do I use it? moments after applying the decal, or wait a few hours for the decal to dry and THAN use what ever the trick of the craft is?

wish I could start working on my VF-1A, I'm just gonna do the Hikaru VF-1A, wanted to do Jack Archor but it'd be to much to do and would take to long...anyways it's looking great I can't wait to see the finished project...I must check here like every hour to see what's up cause something is always going on. But I do have my doubts about the VF-0 kit...

I got Basara.....no surprise..............................BOMBER!

I thought that trailer was sweet...I can't compare it to GiTS because I never got to see the trailer....quicktime problem.

Well wouldn't that be interesting to see another sailor scout entering the scene, I would think by April they would finish with this story arc, I just can't see them really going much further than that...but heh I sorta feel this Princess storyline is just going on way to far, I wanna see damn Mamaru turn to the darkside and fight against the sailor senshi's like in the series first season!!!

I haven't looked here in Oregon yet, chances are maybe the Walmart in Holgate will have him, I'll check it out on Friday after work, if it doesn't, I'll go the Woodburn VERY doubtful they'll have it though....VERY...

I've tried 5 times to download a subbed version, but either I can't find one, not the right subs, or it wont download or is the same file under a different name...but in any format really, word, notepad, wordpad, pdf, I should be able to open the file regardless of it's format.

It might have something to do with the fact that it is sent by the same grunt each time...I don't think it's Kunzite but more than likely Nephrite or something like that.

I just got the movie but it's raw so I can't really understand that much espically when they get into the racing jargan which I barely understand...any help will do for a script so I can probably sub it on my computer or something...THANKS!

You know I haven't played the game since November so I'm so out of touch but obviously you guys are still playing it

One of the things I use to do to show copyright was sealing what I did into an envelope and send it to myself and NEVER open it. If something should come up with someone claiming something you did was really theres, take them to court with fees and prove to them by handing them the letter, and if they open it I think it'll than be documented that it is infact YOURS and everytime that happens, it'll be documented that a court HAS seen it and said it's original or what not...I got alot of songs and such sealed.

Hmmm only type of Gloss I got is in the spray can form, hope that's what you meant. I'm sleepy as hell so I'm just scanning things. i went shopping after work just before doing my inventory stuff tonight, I picked up a neat Nissan Skyline GT-R and bought some paint. I got the Tamiya Black spray paint, and some other stuff for my Skyline, but the Black is the big kicker, most expensive paint I've ever bought. I wont be working on the kit till sometime the week after next, so people have got plenty of time to fill me in on this stuff...

yep yep, if it was in english it would of been interesting, mostly cause she was sounding like she was doing Jibberish at moments....anyone wanna hear me do Basara?!

Okay after taking close look at the model, there is NO WAY I can pencil or ink in those panel lines which are SO small. I'll have no choice but to start using an airbrush to get this job done. Okay so help me with the list: 1) Airbrush gun with Propellent 2) Water based paints for the airbrush 3) Flat Black Primer spray can 4) Wet/Dry Sandpaper, very fine. So anything else I miss?

Well I just got my Macross kit today and god I'm already freaking out on how hard this is gonna be...I haven't built a Hasegawa kit in 3 years and even than I never finished it cause I broke it half way. This time I'll be more careful, but I'm going to try new stuff. I think I'll go with just some normal spray cans stuff for now since those give rich and colorful tones. Plus I can get them pretty cheap and may go get them tomorrow or friday after work. So tonight I'll probably take some pictures for my site and than wash 'em down to get rid of any dirt or oil that may be on the parts. So now I need a semi dark colored red, black, gunmetal gray, green and white...there seems to be enough decals on there that I can use a few of them for the detail job and maybe just carefully go over the panel lines in pencil or fine tipped pen....I don't think my idea is really gonna work on it : /

That's great, if you got a Skull One you than got the early makings of Skull Squadron, and if you get the Max and Miriya set than you will have a skull squadron, I'm impressed. I've always been curious though on just how in the hell do you paint those little pilots 0_o

Okay so now that we have settled the fact that an Airbrush gun is the key, what else? Is there certain types of paint I should be using and just not any brand? What about cleaner? I've seen a cheap airbrush gun from Walmart, 25 bucks, I think that may be good for a beginner such as myself.I've already gone ahead and ordered a Hasegawa VF-1A on Saturday, but more than likely wont show up till Wenseday or Thursday and willing to wait since I need to get some putty, wet/dry sandpaper, some good masking tape and paint supplies. Also just to clear things up, the reason I'm picking a Jack Archor custom, is mostly because I need to learn to do a mixture of different colors and it's to pay homage to him. Out of the Robotech cast, I found him interesting. I'm also trying to stay clear to Robotech merchandise after the Poseable issue, so you wont see me buying a Robotech product for some time or until the game comes out Another reason is because I wont have to use so many damn decals on this kit, just lil UN Spacy symbols here and there, the kite symbol and that'd be about all she wrote. Also came close on buying a second one to make an Izzy Custom...oh well maybe next time.

Okay so for a Flat Black primer that's okay? But once you want to start working on the final colors, like Red and White, you need an airbrush gun?

hmmmmmmm that sucks guess I'll have to wait to put my Jack Archor custom Hasegawa VF-1A together till I get a airbrush gun...I spent way to much money today.

I think it's because Spray Cans and Air Brushing is almost similar....I don't know, I'm gonna go shopping for some supplies later today, and I'm just gonna go buy a cheapy little air brush gun since they're only 25 bucks.
