That's a wonderful subject, and nicely finished kits. These are from Hasegawa, right ?

I didn't know about the series, last steampunk anime i saw was Steamboy from way back. Found the series, so i'll be watching it soon. And i feel the need to go visit Yellow Submarine and Akihabara again. Haven't been there in years.

Cheers,
Wasili

Last Exile was great. I watched it back on G4 when they did anime late at night. Didnt know there was a sequel! I'll have to check it out. Your model is awesome. Looks like actual metal. Fantastic.

Hi! Wasili-san!

Bingo!
This kit is from Hasegawa.

You know Japan well, don't you?
I went to Akihabara in the days of a university student, but don't have an opportunity to go there nowadays.
I live in Gifu located between Tokyo and Osaka now.
Oh, I look forward to your viper build.
I attached the pic of vanship and vespa with my 1/32 moebius viper!:thumbsup

Hi! Sandman0077-san!
Thank you for your comment!

I hope you can watch this sequel of LAST EXILE!

This kit is 1/72.
Especially, vespa is a small kit.

Cool design, it looks like something out of Sky Captain or Crimson Skies. I see the space cruiser Yamato pic there and what is called the Hyperweapon 2011, is that basically the same as the old Wave Motion Gun description?

Hi! gunnerk19-san!

I've watched "the sky captain"! The design of the robot in that movie was nostalgic.
But I've not ever watched "the crimson skies". I'm sorry.

This spaceship is what we call "Musashi" not a "space battleship Yamato".
"Musashi" is a deep space explorer.
"Musashi" appeared in the last scene of "space battleship Yamato 2220" director's cut.
Of course this ship has a bow wave gun.:thumbsup

Yeah!
Assembling and painting a model kit!
I like it!

Hello Atom-san,

Thanx for the pic of your Viper. One never gets enough of them

Yes, i've been to Japan a few times before. My wife is japanese, and her parents used to live in Shibuya. So we would travel there every now and then. Now they moved to Perth, so next time we visit them, i'll visit Nwerke (inviting myself here, Martyn :ninja), and not YelloSub.

Btw, i have now seen a few episodes of LastExile. Very nice. One is tempted to build the craft from this. Alas.... Maybe one day...

Cheers,
Wasili

Hi! Wasili-san!

Wow! Your wife is japanese woman!
I'm glad to hear that.

I went to Shinjuku and Shibuya very often in my university days.
I watched many movies there, for example, Return of the Jedi, Blade Runner, Fire Fox, so on.:thumbsup

BTW, I think the success of LAST EXILE was given by the attractive design of warships. Makoto Kobayashi , the designer did very good job.

What a fantastic build atom!
I've been a fan of the vanships.
There is no physical way these ships could fly, but they look so cool!
I like Range Murata's character designs as well.

Hi! MwNN-san!

Thank you for your comment!

You like design of the vanships!
Me too!
The Claudia Unit is innovative propulsion system. This propulsion system does not have nozzles like F-14.lol

As for the character design of RANGE MURATA, especially girls and women are wonderful. IMO.
