I don't remember Mospeada's animation ever being that detailed. LEK = Better than real life! Edited March 15, 2022 by sqidd Quote
Big s Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 It reminds me of the more highly animated scenes like in the intro for the show, where even dull colored vehicles look super shiny I love those kinds of scenes and love those paint jobs Quote
Mog Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 Guess, I’m the only one getting annoyed with the lavender colored visor on Houquet? Quote

sh9000 Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 I appreciate all of LEK’s dedicated work in his customs. Quote
lavinrac Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 (edited) I’ve always wondered how, or if, he gets the paint to be sturdy enough to withstand transformation . Any ideas? Edited March 15, 2022 by lavinrac Quote

Mog Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 Does using paper clips, adhesive putty, foul language, and prayers count? Pretty sure I “utilized” all those things for a Toynami with disintegrating hip joints and all sorts of other problems. Quote

Also, I love LEK's detail work but I think it works better on white-based valks than on colored mechs. Especially in armo-fighter mode, it looks more to me like a camo pattern (like the ridiculous girl camo outfits in pink)., Quote

It completely fools my eyes into making me think I’m looking at a 2d drawing from an awesome artist Quote

It completely fools my eyes into making me think I’m looking at a 2d drawing from an awesome artist I honestly like what he's doing on this cel-shaded figures. With the Legioss actually, I think the cel-shaded effect felt too much. I understand the sentiment that it works better on white-based Valks. That is because the figure is bigger and the panels where the cel-shaded effects painted are bigger. Whereas with the Legioss, the figure is smaller, and the panels got smaller. Not to mention that each surface compose of small folding panels. And each panels somehow have those 2 streaks effect mostly on the colored panels. He should've simplified a little bit somehow. Because at that size, the cel-shaded effects got busier. Adding those black outlines on each corners didn't help as well. Quote
Mog Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 Changing gears a little, we’re about a month-and-a-half away from getting a Houquet of Bartley’s soon. <fingers crossed> Quote

jenius Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 I come to Macross world for the toys, I stay for the camo pics. Quote
vladykins Posted March 19, 2022 Posted March 19, 2022 See, @sqidd, the camo didn't work at all. I could totally see her! Quote
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted March 19, 2022 Posted March 19, 2022 If you accidentally walk into her, you could just say "Sorry, I couldn't see you because of your camo". Quote

CoryHolmes Posted March 20, 2022 Posted March 20, 2022 Is this a model kit or a highly repainted Sentinel figure? The quality of workmanship is such that I can't tell 😁 Quote
