    Can you tell us what they are saying in romaji, Psyke?


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    I know it means cheek, but the real "meaning" behind it? i dunno.

    Hmm weird. I checked a dictionary site and it shows it means "cheek" too, but I've seen translations of dialogue with "hoho" on the Japanese side but no "cheek" on the English side. I always thought it was a conjunction of some kind.

    Like Chinese, Japanese has kanji with different meanings and different pronounciation too, and even the same meaning can have different underlying tones under different context...

    Perhaps you meant houhou(hōhō)? which means something like, a certain way, or something.

    I think you've got it, though I don't hear the elongated 'o' sound with the 'u'. But I think in everyday speech even the Japanese don't pronounce words exactly right. The "certain way" definition seems to fit. Thanks!

    The kanji meaning is the same as the chinese characters in this case: 方法 hou hou

    And is the translation the same as what darkshadow posted?

    I notice the Japanese like to equivocate like that. They often say "sonno kanji de" to express "that sort of feeling or intention".

    Yes, it means method, or way of doing something.

    Would anyone care to translate the colour guide for the paints for me?
    If I get what the % mixes are, I might be able to buy equivalents here. Thanks for whoever can help out.


    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Same here. It's the only one I'm not sure of.

    No prob. I just remembered I still haven't posted the pics of my old Gundams I promised in the other thread.

    Hopefully I'll do it soon, but in the mean time good luck on your Messiah! And post pics when you're done!

    Unfortunately, I won't be getting it till later on this year, may around Christmas. I've got a 3 month summer break to work on it, so hopefully it should look alright .

    That damn Aussie dollar better climb back up by then, or I'll have to pay a fortune

    Alternatively, USD or Yen can drop

    Oh don't worry, the USD is definitely dropping.
