    Thanks for posting these, Jason. (I actually have asked multiple times if could please post these and also PM'ed you about it but never could get a response).

    I can't wait to see your blimp!

    Yerp - The Cinefex book is where I get the bug to make the Blimp, and scanned the pics and scaled up to make the wallpapers I made last year. You want 'em? Sure thing:

    great job so far..always wonderful to see blade runner props come to life.
    will be watching this with interest.
    will you plan on bringing this to Wonderfest next year?
    that is IF you get it done in time?

    Lets see a picture of your mockup.
    It'll be something if you can build it.
    Get sanding.

    Heh, Shanko 'ol buddy, I see what you're doing. You're trying to turn the mirror back on your accuser... good idea, except I actually produce high quality items, at a sometimes dizzying rate. I'll get on the blimp as soon as I finish the other projects I have on my plate:

    The Monarch bust (had to make a priority to get ready for molds):


    ESB AT-ST (Metal armature arrives this week so work can resume):


    Dragonar-Kai (A non-MaK Kow Yokoyama mech):


    1/20th scale MaK Bananaboat (due to have patterns finished for Summer, 2009 Tokyo trip):


    MaK model I am designing (I work on it only when I feel inspired):


    MaK model I am designing (only work on it when I feel inspired):


    MaK 1/20th scale Lunadiver (hope to have patterns complete for kitting in time for Feb Tokyo Wonderfestival):


    BSG-inspired Ragtag ship (hope to have done for July WF):


    2nd Ragtagger (also hope to have done for July):


    Check-mate, Shanky! You know what? I'll throw you a bone and say that "you got me" - I am 100% guilty of having way too many projects in-flux. I am a scatterbrained model maker.... but oh no, I'm certainly not incapable of finishing things. Here's a few models I finished during the time it took for you develop the thread where you talk about the idea of making a Firefly.

    Probe Droid (studio scale - shipped to happy friend in the UK in finished modules):


    Radiant VII (shipped to a happy friend in the US):



    So next time you try to shoot a fellow model maker down, do a little research. Also might be a good idea to keep that in mind and even do some research on the models you make.

    I look forward to seeing more of your work!

    Try as we might I am afraid the Net is RIFE with wanna'
    be's and delusional model makers that believe they
    are MORE then what they actually are...

    YOU Sir most assuredly are NOT someone that
    suffers from THAT affliction !

    I have seen your works first hand and
    they are TOP NOTCH ! Without question !

    { Photos and all prove that.. }

    So keep up the great work and DEFINITELY looking
    forward to what you will be bringing to the 'Fest !




    Oh, and to paraphrase the Immortal Bard on some
    " other's " abilities....
    [FONT=Century Gothic]

    Some modelers are but walking shadows, poor players
    that struts and frets his hour upon the stage
    And then is heard no more:

    it is a tale told by an IDIOT,

    full of sound and fury ,

    Signifying nothing.

    Heya Kip, no worries
    I'm flattered people like the stuff I'm compelled to make. Doubly so when it's someone like you, who can make models and castings better than anyone I know. Also, I rolled at the quote you chose, as it cross-references the 'ol Venture Bros!

    "It was all sound and fury, signifying nothing."
    - The Monarch, unsuccessfully trying to use a public toilet

    Liking and making this stuff is partially an enthusaistic passion, and partially a mental illness, heh.

    Hi Moffeaton,

    This MaK model has a beautiful sense of scale!

    I know you didn't intend for this thread to go there, but thanks for sharing what's on your bench. That's an amazing amount of work.

    Ron, I don't want to see you crying wolf about baiting any time soon if you can't keep from doing it yourself. It isn't just your detractors who need to behave themselves.

    Nope. I am preparing for Wonderfest, and I am doing things in the order they are in the queue. As a happy by-product, I might be getting more reference, so I'm waiting patiently for that to (hopefully) materialize as I slog through the other stuff

    If I were to go full tilt on this right now, I'd still be making about 40% of the detailed parts of the pattern up... I'd like to get that percentage down. The overall shape is good, but hey - the antennas and the gondolas are full of mystery!!

    Damn sexy elusive mystery!!!

    I tried this when you originally posted it up here Jason, and couldn't get it to load... And I'm still having issues with it. Anyone else had issues with it loading?
