Brianw76 Posted May 10, 2004 Posted May 10, 2004 We've got enough artists around here to easily do it. Its just a matter getting eveyone interested and everyone finding enough free time. I'd even put my vf's to the side and concentrate on environments, like buildings and stuff. Quote
Rodavan Posted May 10, 2004 Author Posted May 10, 2004 Great idea ! I would like to do a scene like Doc did with the aircraft carrier only in CG or maybe a fighting scene Brianw76 - maybe a good way to start is for you to create a thread that , we can add CG props that we have ( I don't have any yet)or get ideas for what would be needed ?

Mechmaster Posted May 10, 2004 Posted May 10, 2004 it looks abit to "fat" - so let me know I think its just the central parts, the "head" and crotch guard that are a bit too wide, otherwise the proportions look pretty good, heres a shot of the Imai kit which kind of shows what I mean. Quote
Rodavan Posted May 11, 2004 Author Posted May 11, 2004 (edited) Thanks for the feed back -Mechmaster If I compare the two , the head does seem way to big and so the front gaurd - I will fix and repost Do use have nice close up shots of the markings on the leg and side guards ? - Its very difficult to make them out form the pictures that I have Edited May 11, 2004 by Rodavan Quote
Grayson72 Posted May 11, 2004 Posted May 11, 2004 Toy look one - as alwaysStill a few things to do - I will add marking tonight ! WOOOOOOOOW! That is amazing, it...it...looks so real. Quote
Rodavan Posted May 11, 2004 Author Posted May 11, 2004 Thanks - Grayson72 Mechmaster - You were right , I scaled the head down and re did the guard , looks alot better , don't you think ? I will add a comparison pic with the Milla Q-rau tomorrow Quote
mechaninac Posted May 11, 2004 Posted May 11, 2004 (edited) Fantastic, but the head now looks too tiny in relation to the rest of the armor. BTW, I think the side "skirts" are supposed to be boxy in the TV version, not spade shaped as in DYRL. Edited May 11, 2004 by mechaninac Quote
Rodavan Posted May 12, 2004 Author Posted May 12, 2004 Thanks I have been thinking about that one , there is quit a bit of info on the net , I will make a boxy looking guard just to see the difference.I use this picture as a ref , if it wrong let me know . Quote
Mechmaster Posted May 12, 2004 Posted May 12, 2004 Looks much better now, I think Mechaninac may have a point about the head looking too small, I assume he is referring to the central, camera unit rather than the main hood, maybe expand that just a bit. As requested, here are the markings on the knee-launcher... Quote
Mechmaster Posted May 12, 2004 Posted May 12, 2004 The side skirt armour, it is a bit boxy. I think the markings are possibly "kill" markings as the number of triangles is different on each side... Quote
Mechmaster Posted May 12, 2004 Posted May 12, 2004 The markings on the side of the backpack... (oops, lost the focus a bit there) Quote
Mechmaster Posted May 12, 2004 Posted May 12, 2004 And the markings on the backpack launcher... Quote
Rodavan Posted May 12, 2004 Author Posted May 12, 2004 Excellent - Thanks ! this clears up alot of things , specially the side "skirt" markings and the leg markings . I played last night with the markings I could see , way to thin if I look at the marking in your pictures ,but it's a start - will fix Quote
Rodavan Posted May 17, 2004 Author Posted May 17, 2004 Does the side guard look better ? Let me know Quote
Prime Posted May 17, 2004 Posted May 17, 2004 The whole thing looks pretty damn awesome from where I'm sitting... Quote
Mechmaster Posted May 18, 2004 Posted May 18, 2004 Does the side guard look better ? Let me know Yeah, that looks about right to me. Quote
Rodavan Posted May 19, 2004 Author Posted May 19, 2004 (edited) When Q-rua TV meets Q-rua DYRL Just a quick render , so I decided to see how it would look if I match the red shiny Q-rua with a green shiny Q-rua. Now all we need is max Q-rua ? oops - sorry for the big pic mods Edited May 19, 2004 by Rodavan Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted May 19, 2004 Posted May 19, 2004 dayum those are toit! How about them other q-rau's like in macross 2 I believe? Quote
Rodavan Posted May 20, 2004 Author Posted May 20, 2004 Well this is the last picture , now we go back to Valks ...... I think Thanks for all info guys , if you have any comments let me know ! Quote
Brianw76 Posted May 20, 2004 Posted May 20, 2004 Man, that green one really kicks ass! Great Job! Quote
EXO Posted May 20, 2004 Posted May 20, 2004 I never realized that the sculpt was so off on the 2 Q-raus. I thought it was just panel lines and the antenna. Great job Rod. You didn't shortchange and just repainted the red one. Quote
Rodavan Posted May 20, 2004 Author Posted May 20, 2004 Thanks form the comments so far guys! >EXO< - I actually did a "green" Milla Q-Rua ( Included picture) but it din't look right ..... , thus the rebuild was born . Brianw76 - if you want to use the Green Q-Rua for the animation project , your welcome Quote
Angel's Fury Posted May 20, 2004 Posted May 20, 2004 Rodavan, since this is your last enemy mecha you'll be doing and you'll be doing valks again, can make a request? How about a CG YF-19 in battroid mode? Quote
Rodavan Posted May 21, 2004 Author Posted May 21, 2004 Angel's Fury - deciding which valk to start is difficult , I am thinking about of the VF-0 , VF-19 or VF-11 . Mighty Gorgon is doing a great VF-11 so I'll put mine on the back burner , I am hoping to do VF-0 @ the same time as buidling the model kit . The problem is my model kit buidling skill suck , so am busy building a Corsair to see see if I can improve those skills - so it will be awail before the VF-0 , so ............ I'll try and do my best on the VF-19 I have some nice Vf-19 reference material , I still lack a good plan front view . If anybody has one , please post , I'll post WIP in the Mass CG thread. Quote
Angel's Fury Posted May 22, 2004 Posted May 22, 2004 Will these help Rodavan? YF-19 Alpha One in Battroid Mode YF-19 Alpha One in Gerwalk Mode (Gunpod used is wrong.) YF-19 Alpha One Gunpod YF-19 Alpha One in Fighter Mode YF-19 Alpha One in Fighter Mode 2 YF-19 Alpha One in Fighter Mode 3 YF-19 Alpha One in Fighter Mode 4 Here's the link if you need more pictures.
