Lethalzero Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 In SDFM Tv series, ARMD I and ARMD II supposedly would dock to macross at a rendezvous point. This was however did not occur because they ambushed ARMD II and I was destroyed. Lets say the ambush didn’t happen… what would SDF-1 look like? Quote

This was however did not occur because they ambushed ARMD II and I was destroyed. Lets say the ambush didn’t happen… what would SDF-1 look like? Oh come on...you know what the Macross looks like. You know what the ARMDs look like...it doesn't take much imagination to imagine them attached to each other... Quote
Morpheus Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 They look like DYRL version SDF-1, only with a flashier paint job. Quote
Lethalzero Posted February 6, 2009 Author Posted February 6, 2009 well armd I and II are flashy alright but, it really doesnt look like a robot arm Quote
Morpheus Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 well armd I and II are flashy alright but, it really doesnt look like a robot arm Well, that's because the original plan is to have both ARMD docked to boost SDF-1 valk carrying capacity, not for them to perform pin-point barrier punch Beside, the storm attacker mode is configured such way so the main gun could connect with the main engine in place the missing fold drive, the "arm" are just an extra addition.

Lethalzero Posted February 6, 2009 Author Posted February 6, 2009 i wish some in the fan art section would do linearts ... it is a bit hard to imagine Quote
Gubaba Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 i wish some in the fan art section would do linearts ... it is a bit hard to imagine I blame television for ruining your creative visualization abilities. Quote
Morpheus Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) i wish some in the fan art section would do linearts ... it is a bit hard to imagine hint: SDF-2 Megaroad before it was converted into a colony ship. I believe Mr.March M3 have the pic of it. Edited February 6, 2009 by Morpheus Quote
Lethalzero Posted February 6, 2009 Author Posted February 6, 2009 I blame television for ruining your creative visualization abilities. maybe ill find a line art on how big/small ARMD to sdf-1 Mr. march here i come xD Quote
SkullLeaderVF-X Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 I blame television for ruining your creative visualization abilities. Wouldn't it look like the SDF-1 in DYRL, just not as detailed, I would assume? Quote
anime52k8 Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 and a few makeshift shops latter... it's amazing how utterly different the DYRL? and SDF:M Macross' are. also, when you look closely at the SDF-2, even when it was still the Megaloard and not megaroad-01, I don't think it could transform. it doesn't look like it was designed to transform really.

Kronnang Dunn Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 and a few makeshift shops latter... GOOD WORK!!! Quote
Macette Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 It looks like the DYRL Version, but bluer... Quote

Most likely. Since the transformation of the Macross was an "on the fly" engineering feat. Subsequent Macross class warships were built with the capability though. Quote
RedWolf Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 I'd hate to be an ARMD commander. "Damn it another ARMD attack!" Actually an ARMD punch is one of the attacks in one of the SRW games. Quote
sketchley Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Actually an ARMD punch is one of the attacks in one of the SRW games. Which is a riot. Followed by it sending out a horde of turd-like destroids. Which is a genuine ROFLMAO moment. Quote

Very nicely done anime52k8. I'm impressed. I'll have to save these and add them to the site. Quote
VF5SS Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 In the Sega Saturn/ Playstation DYRL shooter, one of the levels has you take part in an ARMD attack. The stage starts off with one ARMD punching through a Zentradi ship while you fight as Hikaru in an armored VF-1. Quote
Kelsain Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) Aesthetically- You'd think that, if mounting the ARMDs was the plan all along, they would have been painted the same color. Looks pretty decent, though. I'll bet the top schematic view would look cleaner than the asymmetrical carriers. * Ah, what the hell. Different resolutions on the pictures, but here's the dorsal.

They were IIRC. The ones attached in the pics are the DYRL ones... DYRL SDFM Notice the SDFM version has blue and white paint while the DYRL is mostly grey. Quote
Killer Robot Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 I know it's off topic, but I have to ask.... Am I the only person who clicked on this topic title half expecting some sort of bizarre Russian reversal joke? Quote
Morpheus Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Somehow I got an idea of 'lets attach random things' to SDF-1 arms and see what came out. My favourite would be Yamato and Arcadia as the arm section. Quote
SkullLeaderVF-X Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 I know it's off topic, but I have to ask.... Am I the only person who clicked on this topic title half expecting some sort of bizarre Russian reversal joke? No. I did too. I thought it was going to be a joke a tread like the (If I remember correctly) "Only in Macross" thread. Quote
sharky Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Well, that's because the original plan is to have both ARMD docked to boost SDF-1 valk carrying capacity, not for them to perform pin-point barrier punch Beside, the storm attacker mode is configured such way so the main gun could connect with the main engine in place the missing fold drive, the "arm" are just an extra addition. Yes, as most everyone here knows. The SDF-1 was not originally intended to transform. It was only done out of necessity during their journey back to earth. The fact that the Daedalus and Prometheus look like claws is coincidental due to the ship designs which were primarily intended for sea duty. Quote
sucker4meltrans Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 in SDFM Tv series.... beer can attacks you! there i tried boo me if you want. Quote
anime52k8 Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 in SDFM Tv series.... beer can attacks you! there i tried boo me if you want. Boo (you did ask for it ) Quote
Mr March Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Well, russian reversal was never that funny anyway. But here's a something else to boo at Quote
Gubaba Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Well, russian reversal was never that funny anyway. But here's a something else to boo at Why would anyone boo at that...? It's a gorgeous joke! Quote
SchizophrenicMC Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 In Macross, hot alien chick marries YOU!! In Macross, pineapple kills YOU!! In Macross, song sings YOU!! And I can't find my motivational poster with another one... I'll edit it in later, I guess... Moving on, Somehow I got an idea of 'lets attach random things' to SDF-1 arms and see what came out. My favourite would be Yamato and Arcadia as the arm section. Well... It's a little half-assed, but... Quote
JB0 Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Which is a riot. Followed by it sending out a horde of turd-like destroids. Which is a genuine ROFLMAO moment.I've only seen the SRWAlpha Dreamcast version of the ARMD attack, which was a simple mechaslap. It has it's own moments of hilarity, though. The DC version's camera had some issues with horrible size mismatches. So you'd get a closeup of the Macross' "foot" before the attack began. Then you'd see the ARMD come down and slap some poor fool silly. Quote

Now I'm thinking someone should create a picture of the SDF-1 with some sort of laser ax as an arm. That would be cool if we could see it slicing into an enemy ship. Quote

That would be cool if we could see it slicing into an enemy ship. Then that would be an SDF-1/Optimus Prime hybrid. how long before Bay catches wind of it and adds SDF-1 into Transformers 3? (he did say that he wanted to make an aircraft carrier-type transformer. that's just a few more steps away from space battleship. yikes.) Quote

That would be cool if we could see it slicing into an enemy ship. what would be really cool would be 2 macross quarters, in attack mode, attached to the SDF-1 in place of the ARMD's. Quote

That would be cool if we could see it slicing into an enemy ship. As I said in another thread, Transformers, more than meets the eye! Transformers, Robots in Disguise! Autobots wage their battle to destroy the evil forces of... THE DECEPTICONS! Then that would be an SDF-1/Optimus Prime hybrid. how long before Bay catches wind of it and adds SDF-1 into Transformers 3? (he did say that he wanted to make an aircraft carrier-type transformer. that's just a few more steps away from space battleship. yikes.) TIDAL WAVE CRUSH! what would be really cool would be 2 macross quarters, in attack mode, attached to the SDF-1 in place of the ARMD's. That would work. They're about the same size, right? Quote
anime52k8 Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 they said the 1/4 pounder was a 400 meter class ship, so I take it that it's in the 400 meter length range. so yeah it would be the right size. (if you modified the SDF-1's arms of course) Quote
