Barton had a huge display at Worldcon a couple of years ago, I snapped his Cylon he had there.

That's the real original Gold Cylon from the show. He was restoring it for the widow of a collector.

I have no clue WHERE the thread is now but
over on the Sci-Fi BATTLESTAR GALACTICA
forum they had a BUNCH of pictures from
a Creation Con some months back. Barton had
his Centurion there and some folks took close
up shots of it..

" HONESTLY ", it looked like SHEEEEET ! :$

The overall sculpt was not that great with
some pretty glaring differences from the CGI
model. But what I remember most was a GOD AWFUL
paint job on it ! Just HORRIBLE looking !

I still remember laughing when I read he wanted
" HOW MUCH "
for that thing ???? :lol :lol :lol



Oh, and one other point. I don't remember the fellows
name but a Board Member here made a Clyon Bust
and HIS work was FAR more accurate then what
Bartons Centurion head section was like !

Not a sculpt. SLA'd from the digital model. Doesn't get more accurate than that, but the execution could have been a lot better.

Hopefully that tool does not have the license for the Cylons and if he does not maybe someone will be good enough to C & D him for said photo!

He has the license.

Well that explains that... I didn't think it looked that bad. :lol
