    Really old abandoned Oregon gas station

    The last three pics here with the ghost street and the wagon and the tall building look like older photos, but the structures and the wagon are still there to be sure.

    Really old abandoned Oregon gas station

    I agree. Dan. I Love photos like that because they carry so many ghosts.. so many echoes of what went before, and we're just left to see the last pages and wonder and imagine about the whole of it.. who lived there, what was life like for them when these were settled and built, what was their...

    Battlestar TOS Daggit

    So THAT's who's in the armor...say.... he DOES look deadly. When he's not in costume, he enjoys a Jules Verne classic with a smoking pipe and taking up becoming a Railway Magnate or turn of the century Petroleum Tycoon. Oh those cylons. There WILL be blood sir... oh yes... there WILL be Blood...

    Battlestar TOS Daggit

    And here is a link to the history of the Cylon Centurion costume. same site, different page. I know that many may already know of this site, but in the even that you do not... enjoy. I think it will inspire some new paper model designs for Battle star enthusiasts....like myself. Fingers...

    Battlestar TOS Daggit

    Some pretty apparent differences between the first filming suit and the other one of the later made "on set hero" "don post" quality looking prop. The long hair looks a lot better as well as the other details like the metallic areas, on the original filming suit. For anyone who is...

    Battlestar TOS Daggit

    Has anyone ever designed a paper model of that Daggit from Battlestar? That would be a fun build. The textural differences between fur, metal and glass (eyes) area pretty interesting mix. Even cooler would be to have the head removable and have the head of the chimp Evie who played the role...

    Really old abandoned Oregon gas station

    Hey Rogerio. It's ironic you mention him. He was actually who I had in mind to take a stab at this when I posted the pic, as he has a very unique art and design style, where he uses what looks like actual photographic textures and elements in a lot of his stuff...at least it has that look...

    I appreciate that very much experimental. I really do. He was one in a billion. Each day has him wandering through my head with memories of how big he was always smiling and how much he depended for everything on those of us that took care of him. he was very loved and he loved very well. thank...

    Allow Me To Introduce Myself

    I like the gog and magog references. welcome to the forum. I'm still pretty darn new myself. I still have new car smell, so don't worry. You will find that contributing comes a lot more fluidly and second nature than you may think. That Viper on the table...is that carved wood, or is it a...

    USS Grisson

    We're on the same page on that design. I really like the Grissom a LOT...it's up there with the B/Lakota and Excelsior for favorite designs. Im excited to see how it turns out.

    Really old abandoned Oregon gas station

    Hello everyone. I just found a set of pics on my camera from a trip down to visit the parents a couple years ago. I saw this station on the way there. I had to stop and get pics on the way back. From what I remember it's just a bit east and north of Biggs Junction. I wanted to post these...

    I was ill, but now am much better

    I would like to add my extreme delight at that you are actually feeling so much better than you have in 7 years. WOW. WOW. That is really fantastic. In the same way that Rhaven posted the Charlie Daniels video ( thank you for that btw Rhaven. seriously cool) I hope no one minds that I post a...

    Heaven is Now Richer

    So.....I guess unless it's a pic of the two of us together, I can't post pics of him alone. Oh well.. So I'll describe it. He's wearing dark sunglasses and he has this really big thick black mustache, sort of the Sam Elliot in western movies style., he has a pack of cigs rolled up in a t'shirt...

    Heaven is Now Richer

    Thank you so much Bgt. I appreciate that a lot. He was the greatest. I was just looking at pics and vid of him on my camera last night and came across one that just killed me with laughter. He was sitting in his wheel chair and there was a casio keyboard in his house, so we put it in front of...

    Heaven is Now Richer

    Thank you Cforrest. I did okay yesterday being able to look at his pictures with a smile, but today is different again... shheeesh. Im going to need new eye balls. I like to think that whatever I may have contributed to his life, he returned that 100 fold to me. Thank you so much.

    Some of my renders

    Im really digging the K.I.T.T. interior shot. Your artwork actually shows a much crisper clearer view of the interior that is easier to see and make out detail placement, than I have been able to find on the web on stock images. I'd like to use this as reference in some modelling if you dont...

    Man thanks again so much for that. I had no idea about that. What other kinds of printers use pigment based? Do any of the clear coats out there offer some fade resistance for models that I have done on my H(eap of) P(oop) printer?
