Donut Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 (edited) Thanks for the link! Great stuff, I didn't know he had a Youtube channel! I just finished reading his novel Punk's War and started his second, Punk's Wing. I highly recommend them.

Rokkett Posted April 18, 2021 Author Share Posted April 18, 2021 You're welcome! His article in WATM about the original "Top Gun" movie is also highly entertaining - kind of in the vein of "Mover Ruins Movies", but in written format: 79 cringeworthy errors in 'Top Gun' - We Are The Mighty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LanceCriminal86 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I've been meaning to ask him if he ever sketched up some art for his fictional VF-104 squadron, I know some folks have taken swings at replicating them but it would be neat to get an "official" design direction and go from there. Maybe he'd even gin up a roster of characters for the different jets too in addition to the main characters. 2 Heatblur Rivet Counting Squad™ VF-11 and VF-31 1988 [WIP] VF-201 & VF-202 [WIP] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
