Kusari "White Wolf" - Magoo! - 11-30-2008
I like the model in and of itself, but given the arguments, it does look rather anime-esque. And in my mind, I really don't want to picture Harris being invaded by giant mechs with 3000 ton steel arms to one side with seventy-eight missile launchers while it glides about on its tip-toes by burning thousands upon thousands of pounds of fuel.
While remaining upright and balanced.

Actually, I generated my BW Cap design principles with four elements- (A) Sabres and Daggers (B) Liberty Dreadnoughts ( C) Unique Theme. For the Dreadnought it was the Coptic Cross (look at it head-on), the Battleship was the Double Hull, the Destroyer was the Hiigaran Battlecruiser, the Gunboat the Catamaran. (D) STAR WARS. BRILLIANT ship design courtesy of the folks at ILM. You can find it on all of my ships-guess what I ripped off from the Eclipse :laugh: I've never thrown Anime in there, actually, unless you count the sword motif on the original Battleship (I swear, it's the only time I did it. Really.)

DUDE. THAT WOULD BE
FREAKIN' AWESOME!
:D
I'm going to go out on a limb and say I like the model. It IS rather 'Anime-esque', I'll give it that, and a little too much for our purposes, but I don't think people will fly it for that. I know I certainly wouldn't. I'll blow it up the same I would any KNF bomber.
What I'm going to suggest for the model is angularizing the head. Sharp edges, more deeply set bow. I'm thinking drop the whole cockpit section, too, so it's in line with the base of the ship like on all the other Kusari models. The textures need work, too-The white's nice, but it looks like the animation out of Red Alert II, I'll be honest. We also need variation in the texture-the white alone is bland. More KNF colors on lesser parts to give it colors, maybe?
Either way, I think it needs development, but It's a viable start. I like the concept a lot.
EDIT: Also, somebody tell Dopa that constructive criticism is different than criticism. You're supposed to appraise all aspects of the model, not just the negative ones, and suggest potential improvements:dry:

looked at it for another time.... and i think i now know what bugs me about it. - its not a wolf at all.... its a RAT. it has rat teeth - a rat skull with a pointy nose - and a hunched figure.
even if rats are very intelligent animals - the guy that made those for the KNF would prolly be beheaded. - i mean.. what proud kusari warrior wants to fly a rat.
on the other hand.... dropping hundreds of rat shaped mechs onto Leeds .... umm.. probably improves the planets enviroment.

if we can fly in crevetes, we can fly in rat too... small and deadly animals in our hands haha!

I didn't want to say it as I figured that I'd already said enough but it looks like one of those Australian kangaroo rats, but evil.:P

I talk about what I like and what I don't. I make suggestions. I do what I very well please. With all due respect, STFU.

I am doing a remodelling.
Yes.
