  1. Awesome job on that Valkyrie! I like the gray tone you used. I guess I can forgive you using my favorite pilot's name on the wrong plane! :blink: -( Just kidding,but there's a reason my online name is "Maxtype"! )

    Nicely done all around.You owe it to yourself to pick up the original Macross and watch it-still a true classic of mecha anime!

  2. Call it a tie between Classic Trek,the Classic Star Wars Trilogy,and the anime Super Dimensional Fortress Macross! :thumbsup:

    I also love Aliens,BSG,Babylon 5, and Space:Above and Beyond.

  3. Classic Cake-welcome to modeling and to ARC! :thumbsup:

    I agree about starting with Tamiya 1/48 prop-planes. I would recommend the 1/48 F4U-1D.The beautiful Corsair.Very nice kit,easy paint scheme.

    I also recommend ordering it from Sprue Brothers.

    Good luck!

  4. Considering how awesome the Modern Viper Guide is,and the fact I've got 3 Hasegawa F-15s and Wolfpack Resins update sets calling me from the stash................

    I'm completely psyched! :cheers: Thanks Jake!

  5. Just curious, why is that?

    Hi Murph. First off,if I say anything dumb in this response,it's my error,not my brother. He told me it's basically two things: Networked expert-systems are a more elegant and efficent solution to the kind of management that say HAL or Data would represent then trying for a single processor solution-especially the programming hours it would take to even try (note-that's the part I have to check with Jim on to see if I'm quoteing him accurately)

    Secondly:he believes,as do I,that human brain function is so complex and so mysterious,with chemical interactions,that there is essentially no way for a computer to mimic what we can't even comprehend.So as he says-no 'living' computer. Being able to process equations at Gigabytes per second isn't a brain.

    Anyhoo.........this is the kind of thing my brother and I talk about over a beer. :salute:

    Cheers,

    -Dave
