Hello Tom,
I think you did a great job, the 'thing' looks great, but I have to tell you , that on this forum you'll probably don't get the cheers you realy deserve..
About a year ago when the old Cardmodels. net merged with Zeolot, and the main themes shifted to "sci-fi" this forum appeared,on this forum the main subjects are 'oldschool' things that somehow existed....

So because that, I guess most of the people who likes this kinda model are already following in the Zealot thread. I will post the updates in Zealot then.
Thanks for the advice!!!!

Ahh....so once again, SciFi is the bastard child of a community of creative people and needs to be shunned......

I'd like to throw my 2 cents in here. I admit that among other reasons, the overwhelming abundance of sci-fi threads at zealot contributed to me visiting and posting on that site less and less. BUT it's not that I can't enjoy or appreciate a good sci-fi / anime kit design like this. My issue is with the people who whip out 2-3 'kits' a day by extracting game meshes and the like (and we will NOT get into the legality of this conduct). I don't think many (anybody?) here minds seeing a design in which you've obviously put a lot of time and effort into, and that shows effort and craftsmanship. I'm truly disappointed by Billy's post, as now I'll likely not ever see any more updates of this model as I'm certainly not going to search through the ads / posts at zealot to look for it.

I'm sorry if I offended anyone:(, but just felt a bit sorry for Tom Foggo, IMHO he did a great job, and I have nothing against Ski-Fi, SF or Manga models. I saw an other thread about a Gundam figure that absolutly nobody replied , so I wanted to explain a little bit about this forum to a relatively new member what was going on here,next time I'll keep my big mouth shut..:o

I agree whit you in this point... all my models are built 100% by me including(is that right?) 3D meshe, so this is a very hard work that consumes at least 1 month to do the 3D... Anyway, here's the update:

The Strike model is complete, now I'm building the Aile pack:

Sorry my bad english!!!

Thanks guys! No need to apologize Billy, I just wanted to put forth my take on things.
That's an impressive 3d drawing and translation into paper and I'll gladly follow the rest of the build here
