Falconkpd Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 (edited) Alright, so I've got this little Macross project going that I'm actually making huge strides in. It's called "Macross Elysium"; a fan comic made by myself that features original characters and an original setting. The prologue itself has already been uploaded onto deviantart and tumblr. You can find the links here:http://kylefalconkpd.deviantart.com/art/Macross-Elysium-Chapter-One-Page-1-489723260 https://www.facebook.com/MacrossElysium/In this thread, I'll be posting updates, character art, and even the occasional mecha designs! Stay tuned!EDIT:I'm going to link each chapter here for those interested:Chapter 1: http://kylefalconkpd.deviantart.com/gallery/51587732/Macross-Elysium-CHAPTER-ONEChapter 2: http://kylefalconkpd.deviantart.com/gallery/52987946/Macross-Elysium-CHAPTER-TWOChapter 3: http://kylefalconkpd.deviantart.com/gallery/55039743/Devious-FolderChapter 4:http://kylefalconkpd.deviantart.com/gallery/57297697/Macross-Elysium-CHAPTER-4 Chapter 5: http://kylefalconkpd.deviantart.com/gallery/58498902/Devious-Folder Chapter 6:http://kylefalconkpd.deviantart.com/gallery/59892071/Devious-Folder Chapter 7:http://kylefalconkpd.deviantart.com/…/Macross-Elysium-CHAPT… Edited October 29, 2016 by Falconkpd Quote
Falconkpd Posted December 6, 2014 Author Posted December 6, 2014 I was hoping we would see more of this. I'm expecting to have the next part up before Christmas. It'll be a bit longer, too Quote

Falconkpd Posted December 15, 2014 Author Posted December 15, 2014 really great stuff! downloaded it for keeps if you don't mind! Go for it! Quote
Falconkpd Posted December 26, 2014 Author Posted December 26, 2014 It's kinda low-rez, but I'm almost done! I'll have this up before midnight tonight! Quote
Falconkpd Posted December 26, 2014 Author Posted December 26, 2014 (edited) Five minutes to midnight. I have the entirety of Chapter 1 up on my tumblr! Deviantart will come soon enough. Unfortunately, Tumblr only allows for 10 images per post, so I had to break the 14 page upload into two parts.http://the-valkyrie-hangar.tumblr.com/post/106213490388/macross-elysium-chapter-1-cont-continuing-from http://the-valkyrie-hangar.tumblr.com/post/106213743678/macross-elysium-chapter-one-final-read-theEnjoy!EDIT: The continuation is now up on Deviantart as well!http://kylefalconkpd.deviantart.com/gallery/51587732/Macross-Elysium Edited December 26, 2014 by Falconkpd Quote
Neoka Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 I really enjoy this comic! You have no idea!I mean...I watch you draw it, and I really can't express how much of a fan I am of this project you're trying to pull off.First off, your style is amazing. Not just in the way you draw the characters, scenery, and effects. But the way you draw in itself. You pull off the gritty unpolished look very well!I very much look forward to when you upload the next chapter!I hope more people will comment on this and let you know how amazing it is! I would really hate for you to lose motivation over the fact that no one is giving you feed back! Let's show this beautiful man our support for his huge project guys! Quote
Gerli Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 I posted about this comic in our spanish Macross/Robotech Facebook page and everybody like it. Quote
mickyg Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Very good! Looking forward to the next installment. Quote
Falconkpd Posted January 10, 2015 Author Posted January 10, 2015 Thanks guys, your kind words really mean a lot. I'm gonna keep hammering these out on a (hopefully) bi-monthly basis. It's rather hard with a full-time job, but I really want this to happen. Quote
Falconkpd Posted March 11, 2015 Author Posted March 11, 2015 The first half of chapter 2 has been up for a bit. Expect the second half to be completed by the end of this month! http://kylefalconkpd.deviantart.com/gallery/52987946/Macross-Elysium-CHAPTER-TWOAlso, I'm working on a motion comic version...more to come aboout that in the future!

Saruta Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 I've just read it all and I really like it! What with Fire BomBAR and Studio Nue, too Quote
Falconkpd Posted March 16, 2015 Author Posted March 16, 2015 I've just read it all and I really like it! What with Fire BomBAR and Studio Nue, too Thanks! I'm glad you like it! Quote
Mommar Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 Are going to get to see some VF-4 in action here? Quote
Falconkpd Posted March 17, 2015 Author Posted March 17, 2015 Are going to get to see some VF-4 in action here? That would be spoiling it! <3 Quote
Falconkpd Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 Alright boys and girls, Chapter 2's finale of Macross Elysium is up! You can read it here, just use the left and right arrow keys to navigate. http://kylefalconkpd.deviantart.com/art/Macross-Elysium-Chapter-2-Contact-Page-11-521541632 Chapter 2 from the top: http://kylefalconkpd.deviantart.com/gallery/52987946/Macross-Elysium-CHAPTER-TWO Quote
Saruta Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 Now I don't get it. Keiko has some sort of telecom on her, she was chatting to the others in her team a moment earlier. Why is she not reporting that she is being attacked? Quote
Neoka Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 Now I don't get it. Keiko has some sort of telecom on her, she was chatting to the others in her team a moment earlier. Why is she not reporting that she is being attacked? I assume it's similar to a deer in the headlights moment? When your life is threatened and adrenaline is pumping through your body, you don't think very rationally. I assume her first priority is "get away" Who knows though. When she's able to register it all she might just remember "Oh crap! That's right! I can call for help!" Haha. Or so...that's how I see it. What do you think? Quote
Falconkpd Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 Now I don't get it. Keiko has some sort of telecom on her, she was chatting to the others in her team a moment earlier. Why is she not reporting that she is being attacked? A simple matter of being in the moment; she's scared as hell as I sure as heck would be with a giant robot chasing me. Keep in mind for the next chapter, her cries of fear and homing beacon ARE operating. Quote
Saruta Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Thanks - looks like I overestimated her level of military training. Quote
Falconkpd Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 Thanks - looks like I overestimated her level of military training. Nah, she's just a goofy girl who's too scared to scream for help. Quote
Mommar Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 What era is this thing happening in again? I'm seeing EX suits, 19's, 11's and 4's... Quote
Falconkpd Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 What era is this thing happening in again? I'm seeing EX suits, 19's, 11's and 4's... 2058. Most valkyries this far are civilian owned or privately maintained by paramilitary groups. The 25s are cutting edge at this point. Quote
Falconkpd Posted May 7, 2015 Author Posted May 7, 2015 I did some artwork for the next chapter's cover where I attempted using some new brush styles. Lemme know what you guys think! Quote
Frogze Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 It's such a fun read, love those vf-11s! Keep it up Quote
frothymug Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Looks great! I'd try to improve or change the coloring style to give the VFs a more metallic look, though. The current style should work great as-is for anything not mechanical. Quote
Jasonc Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 You already know what I think of it, as we've talked. Definitely a fan of yours, man. Great stuff. My wife likes it as well. We'll definitely have stuff to do and talk about when you're down here. Oh, and the new cover??? Hory Froating Head, man. You're skills are growing vastly in the time since we first met. This has been a great journey and I can't wait to read more of it. Quote
Falconkpd Posted May 10, 2015 Author Posted May 10, 2015 It's such a fun read, love those vf-11s! Keep it up Thanks! You'll be seeing plenty of valkyrie porn in this Looks great! I'd try to improve or change the coloring style to give the VFs a more metallic look, though. The current style should work great as-is for anything not mechanical. Thanks! Yeah, I'm still trying to refine things in the style. A lot goes into getting colors right on these things! You already know what I think of it, as we've talked. Definitely a fan of yours, man. Great stuff. My wife likes it as well. We'll definitely have stuff to do and talk about when you're down here. Oh, and the new cover??? Hory Froating Head, man. You're skills are growing vastly in the time since we first met. This has been a great journey and I can't wait to read more of it. We'll definitely have to crack a few brews and talk Macross, man!
