Model description : This is the YF-19 prototype for the

VF-19 Excalibur variable fighter from

the animated series Macross Plus.

Other info : Just a straight up adaptation of the

YF-19 battroid, with a Studio HalfEye

1/100 scale resin model used for

reference. I tried to keep it as

accurate as possible, but there's only

so much curvature you can imply inside

800 polys.

Additional Credits to : Muchos nachos to id Softtware for

giving me reason to live and Kawamori

Shoji for the entire Macross series.

Thanks to : Thanks a ton to rogue13 and the guys

at the Q2PMP site for lotsa help with

my first model.

Extra special thanks to Dan Bickell,

who really helped me big time with all

my modeling woes.

Finally, thanks to my friend Aaron

"Mighty Bert" Rucker, who got me

hooked on Quake2, 3DS MAX, and

Japanese animation - I'd never have

gotten started without ya...
