peter Posted April 6, 2005 Posted April 6, 2005 (edited) What's the link for his current website? I think the link on Macrossworld's mainpage doesn't work. Edited April 6, 2005 by peter Quote
Graham Posted April 6, 2005 Author Posted April 6, 2005 What's the link for his current website? I think the link on Macrossworld's mainpage doesn't work. Here's the link: - http://www.studio-tenjin.com/ Graham Quote
Ido Posted April 6, 2005 Posted April 6, 2005 (edited) I wonder if the picture with yf-19 battroid was a prototype cover for a possible hase yf-19 battroid, pretty cool. Edited April 6, 2005 by Ido Quote
Graham Posted April 6, 2005 Author Posted April 6, 2005 I wonder if the picture with yf-19 battroid was a prototype cover for a possible hase yf-19 battroid, pretty cool. You mean this one? No, it was from the year 2000 Macross calendar. Graham Quote
briscojr84 Posted April 6, 2005 Posted April 6, 2005 Sweet!What's even better.... a Macross Zero CG Book seems on its way too! Hmmm.....I hope it is on the way, but there is always a possibility that they are just pages from the Macross Zero book that was already cancelled. Graham What book is this? Quote

Misunderstanding on my part. It looked like the Tenjin book was advertising a seperate Macross Zero CG book to me, but I don't that is the case. Quote

Very Confusing Quote
Graham Posted April 7, 2005 Author Posted April 7, 2005 Who knows? Hopefully we will eventually get a Macross Zero book. Graham Quote
Graham Posted April 11, 2005 Author Posted April 11, 2005 I just noticed that Tenjin has an English translation of the page on his site about his upcoming Valkyries book due for release this Thursday (April 14). Tenjin must obviously be aware that there is a significant English speaking fan base for his work and Macross. Graham Quote
Myersjessee Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 I wonder if we will see more from him. I hope! Quote
Mr March Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 Excellent link. Thanks Graham. I'm really looking forward to this book. Quote
kalvasflam Posted April 11, 2005 Posted April 11, 2005 Oh man, how the heck do I get a copy of this. I wonder if I can order it on Japan Amazon.com. Quote
Graham Posted April 12, 2005 Author Posted April 12, 2005 Oh man, how the heck do I get a copy of this. I wonder if I can order it on Japan Amazon.com. You can order it from either Hobby Link Japan or amazon.co.jp. Note, you have to sign up to use amazon.co.jp, you cannot use your regular amazon.com account. However, they have an page in English for signing up, so it's not difficult. I've ordered many times from them and they ship far quicker than HLJ. Graham Quote
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Its hard for me to say right now but, can anyone tell me what exactly tenjin does to illustrate? Does he do 3d CG modeling programs or just straight up drawing>? Either way it is beautiful and right now I am out of the looop concerning his works, this si the reason I ask. HAd no idea he did the macross plus poster back in 2000, that one was badass Quote
Ido Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Does he do 3d CG modeling programs or just straight up drawing>? IMO he is skilled both in 3d CG, graphic programs and straight up drawing and use them for his illustration. Anyways I think its written in his profile if someone can translate. Quote
Graham Posted April 14, 2005 Author Posted April 14, 2005 The book is supposed to be out in Japan today, so if any of our Japan based members like Howard, Renato, Rob or Min pick it up today, please let us have your comments. Graham Quote
Graham Posted April 15, 2005 Author Posted April 15, 2005 Just received an email notice from amazon.co.jp that my book has shipped, so I should receive it in about 2 days. Graham Quote
Ido Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 Still nothing from HLJ, they are slower as usual. Quote

kalvasflam Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 Graham, can you let us know about what it's like on the inside? I'm all for new Macross art. Quote
Gerwalker Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 For those that ordered from HLJ, I expect you'll receive you books.......oh in about 5 weeks or so Tee Hee Graham So why you posted the HLJ link to start with?! You are EVIL very EVIL. Quote
Graham Posted April 18, 2005 Author Posted April 18, 2005 As there's been a few threads recently complaining about the slow order processing/delivery time with HLJ, I decided to try an experiment. When the Tenjin book was first announced several weeks ago, I placed a preorder at the same time with both HLJ and amazon.co.jp. The preorders were placed just minutes apart. It will be interesting to see what the time difference is between the arrival of the books from the two companies. Graham Quote
chowyunskinny Posted April 18, 2005 Posted April 18, 2005 My order from HLJ is in Payment Process right now. Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted April 18, 2005 Posted April 18, 2005 well, I stopped by my local kinokuniya bookstore and placed an order of 2 and they said it'll take a good 4 to 6 weeks to arrive. Man that's long! Quote
nanashino Posted April 18, 2005 Posted April 18, 2005 Its an awesome book! Everyone should buy it!! Quote
Graham Posted April 19, 2005 Author Posted April 19, 2005 Mine arrived yesterday afternoon (Monday April 18) from amazon.co.jp. Still no news from HLJ about my order with them. As Nanashino said, it is an awesome book and if you are a fan of Tenjin's art or just a fan of nicely drawn VFs, then you owe it to yourself to order this book. The book contains the following artwork: - All of Tenjin's Hasegawa Macross model box art, up to and including the VF-1A/J/S fighter kit released last month. Tenjin's art from the Japanese Macross Plus, Macross Zero & SDF-Macross DVDs. Tenjin's box art and promotional art for the Playstation games; VF-X2 and Macross Plus Game Edition. Tenjin's art from the Macross 2000 calendar. Some newly created art, such as the cover art, a picture of Roy and a large folding VF-1 pic at the back of the book. Various work that Tenjin did for the Macross Zero OVA. One non-Macross picture, a Spitfire MK I. Great book. Graham Quote
Ido Posted April 19, 2005 Posted April 19, 2005 I cancelled the order from HLJ, from wich stores I can order it from? Quote
