Re: Strange Gun from EP02

I need to get Sore o Nasumono next. I might try buying a Unit-01 in the future and converting it to look like the illustration on the wiki page. You'd just need to re-sculpt the thorax and put a doll head on there.

Re: Strange Gun from EP02

It's been a long time since I've seen ep 6, but if I remember right, Ritsuko said to the effect that their own positron weapon was still in development and wouldn't be ready while the JSSDF's one, while more experimental, was workable, so it could be used. Okay, just watched it again. You're correc...

Re: Strange Gun from EP02

For that matter, what's the story with the positron rifle? How are the positron rifle and the positron sniper rifle two separate guns? They even both appear in EP22. The wiki lists the positron sniper rifle as the one requisitioned from the JSSDF's R&D labs, but you can clearly see the blue and ...

Strange Gun from EP02

So, what the heck is this gun? Is it ever mentioned anywhere else?

Re: Unit 8+2

I was just thinking about whether the Rebuild EVAs have souls or not. The Rebuild displays a lot of pilot and unit interchangeability that seemingly wouldn't have been possible in NGE, with no drawbacks to performance. Assuming that they have their mother's souls: A piece of Kyoko's soul was moved t...

Re: TMB's super happy fun Eva model-building adventures

Another question, have you ever painted the elastic arms on the TV models? I put together a Unit-02, and now that I'm painting it I'm finding that the paint (I'm using Testor enamel) leeches the solvents from the synthetic rubber so it takes forever to cure, and then it cracks and peels off incredib...

Re: 7 Things You (Probably) Didn't Know About Evangelion

As to the loop business, he's spot on about a NTE-specific loop being plausible but a NGE/NTE loop being far-fetched. No matter what Kaworu's VA says there's no getting around the fact that NTE has a completely different metaphysics than NGE. That does not work with a loop idea. Time loops don't ch...

Re: 7 Things You (Probably) Didn't Know About Evangelion

On the subject of the rebuild being a sequel: During NGE ep26, the concept of Shinji being able to shape his universe is explored. At the end of it all he is able to make the decision of whether he keeps living his current life, or starts a different one. This is paralleled in EoE, when Shinji makes...

Re: NGE Artbook Recommendations?

Yeah, that's what it looked like. I'm pretty interested to look through it. I like to pause NGE when the camera's up close to the EVAs so I can look at all the details, and I've been wanting a source that has all of the details at once. After reading about what the other books have, though, I'll cer...

Re: NGE Artbook Recommendations?

Alright, thanks! I got the 100% Newtype Collection, since that was the cheapest I could find immediately, and I'll look around for the other two.

NGE Artbook Recommendations?

I'm interested in getting one or two art books, and I was wondering which is the best and where I should get them. I'm most interested in pictures of EVA, and pictures from the rebuild are not a requirement.

Re: Symbolism in Ep08

Also, different topic, Israfel looks like a pair of female genitalia, with their heads as the clitorises. I'm sure that's probably already been said.

Symbolism in Ep08

http://wiki.evageeks.org/images/a/a5/08_Asuka_Impress.JPG Notice that the tarp is almost the same color as Asuka's dress. Earlier in the episode when her dress was lifted by the wind I believe that they were setting up this scene in the viewer's minds. Now, symbolically, I believe she is "lift...

Hi there, I've read through the thread and I'm really impressed with your work! I was wondering if you could impart your knowledge on duplicating parts like you did with the tank treads and the gun barrel, or refer me to a good tutorial. Thanks.
