Starting off as a place to show my 2000AD-themed projects, its mutated into a diary of what i'm up to in the SF & Fantasy modelling hobby. And the odd rant, review and ramble.

R.I.P. Ralph McQuarrie
SO, so sorry to hear of Ralph's passing. A true visionary, who's contribution to SF concept work was invaluable. He'll be missed.
Ralph Mc Quarrie, Ron Cobb, Joe Johnston, Syd Mead and Andrew Probert were my heroes throughout the 70's and 80's, they designed most of the iconic stuff from that whole era of filmaking !! Nobody these days can touch what thoese guys did. RIP Ralph McQuarrie !!
Born '62, growing old but not up. Ex-Projectionist.
Fan of decent film, especially 50's SF, Universal and Hammer horrors, the shorts of Laurel & Hardy. Love the British boys comics i grew up on, special effects in any form, history, mythology, fantasy and cheese.
