    Scratchbuilding USS Excelsior - 1:350 *updated photos* 15/04

    Re: Scratchbuilding USS Excelsior - 1:350 *test model photos* 18/01 The Lunar kit is *CRAP*.I've acquired two of them over the last 10 years or so and they definately aren't worth the $$$.It was hard selling them too due to the amount of money it cost to purchase them orignally.

    I'd expect that Cinefex would be a good starting point.I don't remember which issue it was.

    The Hobbit - starts filming March 21

    I just saw the trailer,it looks pretty cool.The only thing that worries me is that it is going to be presented in 3d.How could they make that film 3d? It will ruin it.

    So I watched Blade.....

    :lol Blade had some good points, but it was one of those "thrown together/let's make a movie based on a comic book and it quickly unraveled.I can't believe they had the audacity to make sequels.Ghost Rider was "OK", but certainly not much better than Blade I.M.O.Sorry you wasted your...

    remember when Nicolas Cage tried to be a serious actor...

    His choice of film projects have certainly taken a nose dive in recent years.Of course exclusing "Kick Ass", but he had a small but important part. Classic Cage flicks, well...the list is *small* for me.I can't hink of many besides these. 1.Raising Arizona 2.Wild at Heart-classic 3.Honeymoon...

    Alternative flexible casting materials?

    Latex does break down and decay.It might last a little longer if preserved and stored correctly, but it will not last a life time.Well,maybe if you have it locked up in a temperature controlled vault? Look at Ray Harryhausen's stop-motion puppets.All show minor to extreme wear.Although they were...

    Does tube silicone stick to mold silicone?

    Hmmm,I was always told that it wouldn't.But I suppose that depends what kind of silicone it is?Platinum or tin based?
