It is pretty rough, but I think we get the idea of what it should look like.

If I say anymore, it won't be 'gentle' so I'll stop now. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

It looks nice. A little rough along the the outline though. An interesting concept with the Virgo II's planet defensors.

Red: constructive critisicm is always welcome.

Draco: Thanks. The rifle ended up that way because I was frustrated with having to re-copy the rifle because the barrel was too thin. Eventually I just cut it off.

Ez8: The idea for this came from wondering what a White Fang version of the Rx-78 would look like.

As for projects, expect a Gundam X RX-78 and an Alex Flight Type.

I liked that you used the shoulder and shield generators but I always found the Rx-78's frame to not be that nice. Maybe soemthing a little sleeker or more sophisticated but it is your franken. Gj in all with the basic outline though.

Wow... pretty good Folken. The shield and parts of the left arm are a bit rough though. Still some good stuff. Nice use of the Heavy Gundam's parts.

YE HATH MADE IT TOO SMALL!!

Details are hard to make out on the NT-4, due to it's small size. Good MS from what I can see, but if I could see detail on a larger suit, then It'd make better eye candy. Using paint, right? If so, select the suit, and right click Sketch/Skew. Usually 300-350% on an enlarged canvas will allow images to show up better on a Photobucket account with detail showing.


As a matter of fact, I think they might be to scale with the original Simmons' drawings...

(Pixel count of the canvas should be around 1360 across by 1444 vertically to fit an image blown up 300-350%)

You have to enlarge it. If you put the mouse over the lower right corner, it should allow you to enlarge it so it is normal sized.

Only the Canvas, Red. The Image needs to be stretched to fit the canvas and be blown up. And selecting it in the flashy dotted line(Top right tool "Select") and pulling it bigger is actually inaccurate and pulls the image out of proportion.

Skewing works better.

Though, this is on the assumption that he is using Paint.

Silly Zabowski, what Red meant was that you have to enlarge the picture when viewing it on the web page. When you put the mouse cursor over the picture, there should be a button that pops up in the lower right corner to help enlarge a picture to its normal size for better viewing. :D

:oops:

Go me and my one track mind, or whatever the hell happened. Sorry, Folkie...ON WITH THE SHOW!

*also notes that he is on post 222, which makes him 1/3 as evil as Fritz(A couple of hours ago now)..in his own bloated egotistical head* :?

Well... the design is kind of rough... again. The coloring was good, but it was definately too rough along the legs. The Hyaku Shiki's bazooka seemed very out of place, and your compensation for the gatling cover that got chopped off wasnt to scale with the rest of the parts. Sorry Folken. :(

EZero8 made mention of the problems. The coloring could have been better, the legs are done pretty badly and would really need a lot of cleaning and right arm and Clay Bazooka just don't look right.

The bazooka looks fine to me. Besides, it was either that or the Serpent's beam cannon.

Well in that case, the Serpent's beam cannon would at least get a better placement than the bazooka. But thats just my opinion, go ahead and do what suits you best.
