Default Re: Battlestar Galactica - Blood & Chrome

On his Facebook page, Doug Drexler seems to be in denial about the origins of the design of the Mk III Viper which is clearly the one from the cinematics from the 2003 videogame produced by Eden FX.

The strange thing is, that the producers of the mini series saw that design (by Pierre Drolet, I think) and asked for it to be simplified so they could make full-size versions of it for the mini-series.

Now it's gone the other way and the Drolet design is back although with more surface detail and the odd tweak, so it's obviously been sitting on someone's computer for a few years.
