The surface detailing work is good, I particularly like the Merrimac; very clean hull. Sometimes I miss not making physical models, having something solid in your hands to show for your work. Then I remember all the sore heads from the smell of glue and paint, trying to clean the bloody things without breaking them and constant outlay buying model kits to suppy the parts you needed. I'll stick to CGI models now I think, safer all round. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>MinutiaeMan</b> <br /><small>Member # 444</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2003,0,7,16,37,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">January 07, 2003</span> <span class="timeformat-0">04:37 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Hmm, that reminds me -- I've got a Prometheus model sitting in my closet that I never finished...<br /><br />Nice modeling work there, Jason!
