Modeler: eday

Not much is known about this mysterious modeler, except his does outstanding work. I am actually an HG fan, due to my time constraints when building. Take a look at this Asshimar HGUC. The detailing is exquisite. He also used great color palette. The mods are extensive, yet subtle. I look forward to seeing more of his work.

Classic Mecha: Five Star Stories

I'm not very familiar with Five Star Stories. The animation seems to be top notch though. My favorite period of anime seems to be from the mid-eighties to late-nineties. I really like the texture have hand drawn cells. Story and emotion seem to have driven better production values. Recently, artists and studios seem to rely too heavily on computers to do the work for them. However, computer graphics of late have been showing some promising signs lately. So, we'll have to wait and see. In the meantime, enjoy this little OP.

News: Weekly update

I seem to be getting a bit more traffic lately. Which is a good thing. So, I will be trying my best to put something of interest up once a week. I would like to update more often, but my schedule doesn't seem to allow it. I'm thinking Tuesdays would be good. So look for an update on Tuesdays from here on out. Now keep in mind, this is a minimum goal. I hope to bring you more mecha madness than that. But at least I have a quota now. And as soon as things slow down at home, I'll get back to that HGUC RX-178+FXA-05D. Promise.

Classic Mecha: Speed's Mach 5

Alright, maybe it's not really mecha... However, it is a machine, a human controls it, and I grew up with it. Besides, this is my blog. -_^


Go Speed Racer, Go: Movie Mach 5 debutsPosted May 31st 2007 12:38PM by Alex NunezFiled under: Sports/GTs, Etc.Click image for high-res versionWell, now you know what we'll be covering breathlessly post-Transformers. Shooting for the Wachowski brothers' live-action Speed Racer film begins next week in Germany, and Warner Bros. has released the first official pic of the Mach 5 hero car.Awesome.It's a modern take on the Speed's iconic ride, and is sleeker and way badder-looking than the Mach 5 prototype created in 1999 (and on permanent display at the Petersen museum in L.A.), which is more faithful to the original 'toon car. As you can see, the movie car retains the same general look as the hand-drawn Mach 5, but incorporates details like a racy full-wraparound windscreen, sleek rearview mirrors, and chromed dubs shod in Yokohama Advans. It looks absolutely killer. As the film's star Emile Hirsch (he plays Speed) summarizes, "Yeah. They got the car right."

New Series: Gundam 00

The Gundam machine is churning out yet another series. It looks like another high-action story arc, seperate from the Universal Century. I haven't seen much of the design so far, so I can't comment on that. But one of the main contributors is known for yaoi art, so we'll have to see...

"The setting is Earth 300 years from the present day, in 2307 AD. The series depicts the protagonist, Setsuna F. Seiei, who pilots a mobile suit (Gundam Excia) for a mysterious private militia (Celestial Being), going against a whole world where conflicts never cease and the struggle to eradicate war."
