As the game seems to have lost it's momentum, no fault of Mike, I will begin a new round of 20 images beginning this week. I've sent Mike two PM's, asking he reveal the last image he posted, as the three day time limit, expired several days ago. I've decided a 4 day time limit, is adequate, same 3 guesses per player applies. Hopefully my loyal stats-keeper, will help keep the record straight through this grueling event! If the lack of interest continues, I guess we'll just have to shelve the game.

Very nice!!! You did a great job on the restoration, looks like a brand new display, outstanding!!

Thanks James, for both compliments.

Thanks Jay, not my favorite spin-off either, I grew up with the original series, so that will always be the best to me. However, the Intrepid-Class Starship is a very sleek design, sort of a "Mini-E", so it's quite popular with my clients. I got the first primer coat applied just before Thanksgiving, an update to be posted next week.

Well, Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I'm looking at this image, I have a notion, but I'm sitting this round out, I see what it "might be", take a good look players.

Dang it!!

We are presently in "Masking Hell", many apertures, very little sanity left after only a few days, but here goes. These are the final lighted images of the Voyager project, with all systems active, before I began the masking process, a few days ago. 3 film clips posted if you want to see that at http://www.simonmercs.biz/WORKBENCH.html Now it enters the "Cocoon" stage, as I prepare to paint.

HEY!!! HEY YOU PLAYERS, WASSSUP? NO ONE WANTS TO PLAY WITH MIKEY?? If you don't show some interest in the game, I'm going to have to come back, and "rock your socks" kiddies........... 20 rounds, tough stuff, but BIG prize, now play nice, or the evil "Blue One", is going to return with a vengeance! I was afraid of this, he's too good, he knows the "stuff" too well, you are all "intimidated" a tad, thought so......heck, he's better than I am! C'mon people, I'm trying to finish this frakkin' Voyager project!! Posting final ,"before masking" lighted shots of the roughed build, in the "Peek" thread..........in "Masking Hell" presently.......... ...so you "Feel My Pain"......

Great film, very creepy!

Thanks Mike!

Oh, I think we can be relatively sure, model kits, by Manufacturer, or garage-style, will be popping up soon enough.

A lot of progress on getting the lighting installed in the Aft section, and Shuttle Bay, as well as almost completing the assembly of major sections. Again, mostly film clips of the special effects on this update. Go to the link to see these posted, http://www.simonmercs.biz/WORKBENCH.html Here's a few stills of lighting work, and do note these are "in production" images, still very rough, and no light blocking has been applied yet. Do note that the lighted Shuttles, interior and exterior, are about 1/3 of an inch long, as the Bay is about 1.3 inches by 1.5 inches in area.

Well done Mr. Corley!!!

A bit more progress now finished on the Voyager. Strobes and Navs are all active on each sub-assembly. This weeks update is mostly film clips, so click on the link to see those. http://www.simonmercs.biz/WORKBENCH.html A few images of the project as of this week, posted below.

Well, the new BSG is frakkin' awesome in my book!

Indeed! Vintage SF kit, very rare, nicely done!!

C'MON PEOPLE, HE PRETTY MUCH GAVE IT AWAY THERE...............!!! THAT'S MORE THAN I GIVE THIS EARLY ON..................JEEZ..............

JEEZ DUDE, YOU STUMPED THEM RIGHT OFF THE BAT!!

I Fully Agree! I wanted to implement the 3 day image limit, in the next round, or the game tends to drag....I second that motion!

EXCELLENT MIKE, THE "COM" IS YOURS, FOR A 10 ROUND SESSION!! I WILL SIT THIS ONE OUT, AS I AM INCREDIBLY BUSY ON THE VOYAGER PROJECT, AND HOME IMPROVEMENT STUFF, GOING ON HERE. CONGRATS FOR A REALLY WELL PLAYED GAME, YOU CERTAINLY KNOW YOUR FILMS!! I REALLY APPRECIATE MIKE TAKING OVER THE GAME FOR A ROUND, I NEED MORE TIME TO GET ALL THESE THINGS ACCOMPLISHED!! I AM CURIOUS TO SEE WHAT THIS DEVIOUS AND KNOWLEDGEABLE GUY WILL COME UP WITH!! STAY TUNED.........

BINGO!!! AND MIKE D BECOMES THE FIRST WINNER OF THE SF GAME!! PLEASE PM ME YOUR ADDRESS, AND THE KIT WILL BE SENT TO YOU!! WELL PLAYED MIKE, EXCELLENT!! INDEED, "THE PRESIDENT'S ANALYST", VERBEAL CUES NOTATE HOW THE CIA, KGB, AND EVEN THE PHONE COMPANY TRY TO GET TO HIS MIND!! IMAGE SHOWS AN ODD "DREAM SEQUENCE", MANY IN THIS FILM! A NEW ROUND OF IMAGES TOMORROW, UNLESS MIKE D WOULD LIKE TO RUN THE NEXT SESSION? STRICTLY UP TO YOU MIKE!

OK, today's the last day for this image, if not guessed by 5pm EST, counts as a "stumper"! Last clue for this round, the film centers around the lead character, being chased by all sorts of secret agencies, trying to extract what he knows about an important person!

Great film, even the sequel was decent on that one, but it is a.........STRIKE!

Eeeer OK, good candy, ..................

Let's start off the week with a clue, as time is running out on this image. This film was a big hit, in the 60's, and the lead is played by one of the actors, that has already come up in a prior round!
