It's beautiful Oh nah, that's usually how it goes for me, see old work and start to realize ALL THE STUFF I DIDNT KNOW ABOUT BACK THEN every once in a while I am tempted to rework my old acz pieces but.....  I originally picked up art so I can do acz fan arts, THEN I realized I got stuck so I powerleveled on it for a bit (and got addicted to it at the same time) Fast forward to grad school for medical/scientific illustration and animation, my thesis work was heavily inspired by Ace Combat series. I even got Yuri Lowenthal to narrates my thesis because I am a huge loving nerd  now I am in my line of job because I originally started out wanting to draw ACZ fan arts

Materant posted:Wait, really? Is there a recording of this anywhere? Because getting a high-profile voice actor to narrate your thesis sounds pretty rad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XL4_G74Cn54 Yeaaa I am still surprised he was willing to help me with it. I am pretty much in-debt to a ton of people for that project.

AmyL posted:Do you still paint art these days? Those two pieces that were posted on this LP are amazing and I would love to know the intent behind the commissioners. I still do! Just a lot less AC fan art. http://pvtskwerl.tumblr.com/archive I kinda regret taking that MLP commission, people are asking if I am a brony or not because of that... The client wanted badassed pixy vs rainbow dash image, so that's what I gave him. As for the pixy, that was something I wanted to do for a while. Also some development history for ACZ, ACZ is pretty much a miracle product in my book. If you guys think about it, ACZ was developed at the same time WITH ACX and AC6, and the development time was 10 MONTHS in total, that's pretty loving impressive for an end product like this. Very efficient of them. Skwerl fucked around with this message at 15:40 on Nov 22, 2015 |

More acz trivia Here's the outfit/custom used for Pixy's filming  AFAIK, pixy's actor, Sean Ryan, does fashion modelling. In fact I think the entire pilot interview cast came from the same agency. As for the outfit, one of the PA staff was insistent about getting it weathered properly so it looks right. He took the outfit to the park near the office and beat it up there by scraping it with knife+smearing dirt over it. ALSO The original plan for ACZ, was actually going to be a story of a mercenary pilot who flew through Erusean War and Osean/Yuktobanian War... so yea, there you have it.

Kibayasu posted:Yeah but, well, am I the only one who thinks the live cutscenes actually work better than the still-frames of AC4 or the animated ones of AC5? I think AC5's animated cg is by far the worst... stuff like that /never/ ages well.

Makrond posted:Have I just totally missed it or did you not include the interviews after B7R? You have the pictures of the aces in the post but there's nothing in the main video, and I can't find any other video links. those happens after mission 12 I think. They did two ace encounters in a batch, which doesnt make much sense to me. When I first played the game I thought they got cut out in localization.

The Casualty posted:You can get the cement off with acetone and a cotton swab, don't trip. Oh, the glue actually ate off bits of pre-applied paint job they had, it's not super serious so I THINK I can wing it at the weathering stage, fingers crossed. Also ninjahedgehog, there was indeed a pre-painted mobius 1 that was released about 2 years ago

Sorry if you guys have issues with me derailing this thread into ACZ: The Modeling Thread Ninjahedgehog, I was playing with my Cipher kit earlier and what I found is that these pre-painted kits are very good for weathering/further detailing. I tried some tamiya weathering kit along with water color pencil, sakura pigma micron pen, and then did some washes with 70% ethanol on q-tips. I got some pretty good result so far. The dirty Utsio mercenary dog...

ninjahedgehog posted:Yeah, that does look pretty good, but this is literally the first kit I've ever made since a couple of SnapTites when I was a 10 years old and no loving way am I risking it. I'm buying a cheapass kit this weekend to practice my gluing on. My amraam is unpainted too. As for weathering its really hard to go overboard since those material I listed wash off very easily. FYI this is my first serious attempt on a kit too. I am planning to go with spare fuel tanks because they will look very nice after weathering/repainting. Honestly, I think most of the challenge comes from getting the appropriate references. Edit: Done with the jet for now, going to start with the diorama when I have money again.

Actually, I think a while ago I thought I saw someone literally downed acz's final boss fight with UGB. The same was also doable in Assault Horizon as well... Edit: I found the ACZ ugb clearing on youtube. SPOILER WARNING!!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9hCUb9-zwo Skwerl fucked around with this message at 14:11 on Feb 14, 2016 |

Yayyyy and we are done with Zero! Here's my tribute to our favorite cannon fodder of the game the Ustio Air Force pilot. Out of all the pilots in the history of aerial warfare, they probably had the shortest life expectancy due to flying in dangerous situations such as: raiding oversized laser installation, serving as decoys in Death Star styled trench run and surviving 7 simultaneous nuclear blasts...

ninjahedgehog posted:Listen here you dumb poo poo Cipher and Pixy never went to Avalon together in the same plane, and furthermore the GPS coordinates are off by twenty minutes north and the F-15C carries AMRAAMs or Sparrows underneath its fuselage, not Sidewinders and where are the shock diamonds on the afterburners and you probably just took the kanji for a California Roll why would you even make it AC themed if you can't respect the canon  And yes, I caught the amraam mistake faaaaar too late in the project to fix it, should have consulted with a jet nerd earlier in v vEdit: Thanks so much for the props goons, means a lot that there are actually people who like these since I do draw for a super niche subject. :V Skwerl fucked around with this message at 23:42 on Mar 23, 2016 |
