Nice photos - especially with Nathan Fillion. Liking "Castle" shows your family has good taste in TV shows. And yes, if you haven't watched "Firefly" (followed by the film Serenity) I highly recommend them.
Oh my god. You took a picture with Malcolm Reynolds? Serious envy happening here.
That’s your daughter Yuki right ? Almost didn’t recognise her ( no glasses LOL ! ) with picture of Capt ‘n Mal , your BW ( looks pretty happy too ! ) , and your good self of course !
What were the items that interested you - for next year ?
:cheersGed
Yes, the U.S. Comic-con seems to be enormous and a serious strain on the wallet, as SmilingOtter mentioned. I get a little claustrophobic in large crowds so I could never attend but it's fun to see other people's recollections of these events.
Your daughter looks like she had no intention of letting Castle go! Has she seen the show Firefly? She would probably love it.
That photo of your wife with Leatherface really made me laugh. She seems to be thinking, "please don't let this guy follow us around for the rest of the day!"

Looks and sounds like it was a blast
thanks for posting those pics!
Hey,hey,hey, Bones-san, Tom-san,
What do you thing I am? Of course I have watched that TV show and movie!
It's so sorrow that the show ended up in only 1 season.
Next year, we will get our self in a costume!!
Just checking... Every so often I run across someone who should be aware of the show but isn't.
I love the Firefly references in Castle. This was probably my favorite:

Any thoughts which costumes?
or is that a surprise
Ahhhh, this thread is like a breath of fresh life. So nice to catch up on.
Fresh life = Retirement? Seems valid to me.
I don’t know why ( and apologies sir - no offence meant at all ) , but in my mind I can’t help thinking it’s about to ‘ transform ‘ & ‘ reconfigure ‘ any minute now . LOL !!!
Not sure about the railing ( scale - wise )
She’s looking beautiful and very well dressed Katsu - san ! . Not sure about the railing ( scale - wise ) , but the riveting is inspired .

At this point, that wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.
One thing that impresses me is that several of the techniques you're using weren't brought over from your plastic models - you had to alter the methods for metal, or come up with brand new ways to do things. So you're obviously still learning and experimenting.
Looks like it's almost ready for a launching ceremony from the space drydock
Looking forward to some full EPIC shots of this beautiful beast! :thumbsup
Words fail me. All it needs is a coat of paint and she's ready to fly out of the Katsu Planitia Starship yards.
That's not hand railing. It's an EM field dispersal multiplier rail. A special energy weapons defense against flanking shots.
That's the beauty of SF creations. Mundane objects can become whatever thingamajig you want them to be. :cool
What an ingenious method for making rivets! Regardless of if anyone thinks this looks like a battleship or not (It classifies as one in my imagination) I certainly would not want to be on the receiving end of its weapons.
Impressive. Very impressive.
Looking ready for a coat of of paint and markings and then a christening. Hmmm, not sure you would want your BW (Beautiful Wife) smashing a bottle of champagne across the bow. You might have to make a teeny tiny bottle out of sugar... to scale.
....... wait a minutes, dry dock...???... No, no I never build any dry dock....
I guess you'll have to get started on one then :lol
