ValkJunkie Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 Changed face - now she is starting to look like Komillia... 343923[/snapback] i agree.. amazing work once again.. Quote
Ryuji Posted November 24, 2005 Author Posted November 24, 2005 Before change proportion I make a copy : Many times in past when I changed something in my models I started to think "before was better,but now it's too late because I destroyed the kit ..." Now,I ALWAYS make a copy and make modification in copy and keep the original for comparison Quote
Ryuji Posted November 24, 2005 Author Posted November 24, 2005 Leg reduction. I still not sure which one is better... (maybe the original size...at least I still have the original!! ) Quote
NERV Posted November 24, 2005 Posted November 24, 2005 tought call, they both look great, but i tihnk i would probably go with the original Quote
CoryHolmes Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 I'd say go with the newer, shorter legs. Especially in that first comparison pic, her original legs just looked too long for her torso. They looked like someone stretched her out on a rack or something. Quote
JB0 Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 Yah. The shorter legs are a little better. Quote
NERV Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 i guess i just got a thing for nice legs, i think she looks a little too stocky in the new ver Quote
Major Johnathan Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 It's looking good. Personally, and it's subjective, I like the shorter legs. Tall women are intimidating. Quote
Zinjo Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 (edited) Man, Figure painters and sculptors like you always amaze me! I'm a static kit builder / kit basher by bent and I'm constantly amazed at the skill it takes to do figures! Amazing stuff Ryuji! Edited November 25, 2005 by Zinjo Quote
chrono Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 The short legs really do help. Unfortunatly something else is throwing it off for me. I wanna say it's the feet size for some reason. Quote

NERV Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 it mgih tbe that now that the legs are shorter the overall body seems smaller and it make her head look a tad big Quote
baxojayz Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 IMO, long legs are always nicer. But I leave it to Ryuji's discretion. I have many of the kits of his work from the past and will be happy with any decision he makes on this. Quote
Guest Bromgrev Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 The shorter legs look great. Keep going. Quote
ghostryder Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 Short leg version is perfect, except as said before, the feet may be a bit big. Quote
fernarias Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 (edited) the feet may be a bit big. Hm, I made some obvious changes and I think perhaps you are right. But that's something the kit builder could change if he wanted. I prefer the shorter legs and of course I will be buying a kit. F. Edited November 29, 2005 by fernarias Quote
Anubis Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 I like the shorter legs too. Better proportion. Awesome either way though. Quote
emajnthis Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 The shorter legs have a better overall proportion. The model as a whole has really developed quite nicely. Quote
Ryuji Posted December 1, 2005 Author Posted December 1, 2005 Now with copied parts I can build the other two girls (but I have no idea of who they are... I don't have this game) ...and I STILL not sure which leg is better : - with long leg she looks more elegant but the proportion is wrong - the short leg is correct,but sometimes she looks small I thought after build the other girls it was more easy to decide,but no... Quote
DatterBoy Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Hey Ryuji, Looking at these refs of the pilots andthe original Komilla pic, I'm thinking the outfit would have a slightly more dramatic impact with the shoulder pads slightly larger. Just a thought, but of course, your artisitic license allows you whatever you choose. Great work, BTW. :Dat Quote
Macross73 Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Incredible work i wish i a had your talent .....jealousy in play here Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Geeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzz!!! Those are really nice. Quote

I really SHOULD download, I mean LEGALLY ACQUIRE, a copy of the SRPG those other 2 come from. To heck with teh language barier. Quote
jardann Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Those look great! Will these be available as a three-piece set? I think the shorter legs look better, especially when seen next to the other figures. Quote
Anubis Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 The long haired one especially will rock. I wonder how she fits that in her helmet. Quote

With the 3 different poses I'd go with longer legs because it works so well in that style of display set-up! It's gonna be interesting how you get the slightly arrogant dead sexy look of the other standing one. Quote

The first figure is Milia and Max's daughter (can't recall her name off the top of my head) who appears in the "Macross 2036" game. The other two figures are characters from the "Macross: Eternal Love Song" game that appears to take place during or close to the same year. Anyone who has more detailed info is invited to chime in... Edited December 4, 2005 by Zinjo Quote

Anyone who has more detailed info is invited to chime in... 349441[/snapback] Wel... both games are non-canon. 2036 is a fun sidescrolling shooter. It seems to depict a mission to capture a second factory satellite. Kamjin and LapLamiz seem to be back for more, their death in both the TV series and D?YRL notwithstanding. Possibly just the next iteration of clones. Eternal Love Song is a strategy RPG. I've never played it. Quote
kazuki Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 Your work is simply amazing. There's just so much to learn about modelmaking. Thanks for sharing your wonderful art works with us. I'll be so looking forward to how the models will turn out. Quote
