Two thumbs up - that's a gratifying sing. I just realized, though - I have them leaving earth a year too early. D'oh. Make that 2008 where it says 2007.
Nothing to say about the art? Le sigh. As to that, I'm coming along on the Wave Convoy model - I still need to mirror the leg I finally settled on, and do the interior, but it's mainly complete. The Matrix and associated gribblies just about double the polycount, though, and the interior probably will as well, so I'll probably end up treating them as seperate characters in terms of visibility management, to control rendering times in any animations that might come about. You can figure on at least one, of the transformation sequence, at least. A 3D rendition of the battle scene in the Faction Entry Addendum t read is vaguely possible, but only if I find Epyon geometry to import, because I am not putting the time to do it myself in for a Gundam, even the Gundam I dislike the least. Human(ish) characters, Shuko & co., are maybes - I'd be able to reuse them for one of my long term projects with more or less reskinning, so there's no real downside except that if I'm in Blender for eight hours to make a limb I haven't spent that time writing a page or three of text... and that's not counting everything else I need to do normally.
