What you're doing Gordon, and the other BSG TOS websites, and anyone working on art, or stories or fan films are all keeping the dream alive.
You had to be around at the time, but before Galactica, there was nothing of that scale on TV, not Star Trek, Land of the Giants, anything. BSG was an event, and something that's never really been attempted since.

Most of my magazine collection is in storage which features stuff like that is in storage but I'll dig around.

This attempt at communicating is futile at best. But I tried. |

Yes Amberstar, I'm home and LOVE IT HERE! You're wonderful and it's nice to have you as a friend. Glad you like it. It's affordable too It's got heat and air, leather bucket seats, complete communication surround sound, adjustable harness for just that right feel with full turbos engaged, tinted laser-proof glass, and just the right shade of orangie-redish color to the stripes. All for the low cost of 95.00+shippingand handling.

But, does it go from zero to .15C in less than 6 microns? More importantly, does it have plenty of cargo space and does it come with a 6-disk CD player?
You just can't go from an Shuttle to a Viper without keeping some of the creature comforts, now can you?
Those are some great pics of your models - It almost makes me want to dig one or two out of the closet and start modeling again....
Best,
Bryan

Mike,
Nice to see you around here. Its been a while.
Great to see the DeSanto ship moving along and the recruitment poster would likely get me to sign up.
Did you ever finish up the Frazetta painting you were working on a while back?

SANDY!!!!! Long Time. Tried to even write you a time or two, but maybe you just missed it.
Everyone, please salute The Cylon.Org Founder Sandy, that originally interviewed me on the site about the project that is finally seeing the light of day. Sandy I'll p.m. you with phone number, it's an honor to be greeted by you, and I wish you to post an up-date on this project over at Cylon.Org.

Ladies and Gentlemen please give a round of applause to mine and Terri's and probably Griffworks will come into this endeavor also, NEW MODEL COMPANY.......(SMEGMODELS) Christened on this day of Nov, the 24th 2005.
And the above pick, for your entertainment as well as knowledge, a MAJOR KEY signature Colonial Shuttle detail part!
Let's play a game, let's see if you can identify this part, and what model kit and scale it comes from? C'mon modelers. This could become a LOOOONG thread.
Oh, and the Canopy for the DeSanto model is about finished, pics soon. |
