Lynx7725 Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 Still, it is a good effort and, if you overlook these items, it hangs quite well together. As this is on land (apparently), I would prefer to see the GBP instead, but that's a bit hard at the moment. Why do you assume they're are on the ground? Just Curious. Mainly to do with the light source. The diffused glow effect appears atmospheric, and the dusty tinge to the light makes it more likely IMO to be on the ground than in space (where, due to the lack of atmosphere, light tends not to be so diffused and a lot sharper). Of course, the curtain in the first shot has to be ignored... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 We already know from watching DYRL that FAST Packs are installed in fighter mode. Yes, loading (oversize) cannon shells one at a time by hand is pretty funny. As for the hand refulling from a 55 gallon drum, it could have been a lot worse. If the guy who made the diorama had been a Row-Boat-Tek fan, he might have had the ground crew stuffing flower of life leaves into the fuel tank .

Guppy Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 a a closer look it looks like he's built the diorama to fit a shelf of his glass cabinet which is pretty neat. I guess if I was him I would make the scene a repair scene where the mechanics are tinkering rather than refuelling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After digital enhancement, it seems Graham was right! LOL! My apologies to the maker of this nice, although odd, diorama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Paragon Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 The back drop is nicely done, but the setup makes me laugh. Alot. you would never EVER work on the Valk in Battroid mode. Ever! And as we saw in DYRL, alot more of that wrk was automated.... and love the ordinance piled up in the back haphazardly. Nice effort, but it kind of misses the mark. Never store Nuclear(Reactive) ordinnance thusly: http://www.tmpforums.com/incoming/Rhoel7/Dio4.jpg Ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

promethuem5 Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 That's different.... it's half assembled, mounted in a gantry, and they're not mounting FAST Packs on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Yeah but I thought those engines on the valk are nuclear fusion so what do you need to fuel with it? Liquid uranium? I dont think the valk needed to be refueled or do they?

AlphaHX Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 (edited) Fine AlphaHX! Blah! Haha, I was just saying. No hard feelings. I dont think the valk needed to be refueled or do they? They needed refueling in Mac Zero... I wonder with what tho... Edited March 1, 2005 by AlphaHX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
promethuem5 Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 (edited) Lol....none taken. They refuel the Valks in Mac0 with Liquid Schwartz! Lol...it's hard to type sarcasm. Edited March 1, 2005 by promethuem5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
