That may be set up as a stand alone diorama.

I am thinking along the humvees from the Lost world...

d) For those who do not want to build anything and just want to help, we
could use large colored cardboard backdrops to go behind the complete sets
(That Scott described) and the original stand-alone MOCs that would include
MLCAD/rendered pics and digital composites of MOCs over starfields or even
planets.  One cardboard display could show the different stages of an MLCAD
MOC from early drawings to final rendered form, and then with a composite
starfield.  Additional notes on MLCAD, where you can download the program,
where you can download part files, etc, would be good for the audience who
would rather draw instead of build.  Both Scott and particularly Rick would
be really good at that in addition to the MOCs tat they intead to bring.  If
Rick was to print out nice pics of some of his composite work, then most of
the hard work is already done.

Do you want me to set up a presentation of PowerPoint or somethin for the
MLCADing and such or is Tim or Steve (Anyone more knoledgeable then me)
gonna be there? I can start to make MLCAD screenshots of my ships in
progress, a completed model, and a full render as 'Progress Photos' Maybe
Even I will scrounge up some of my notebook paper 'idea sheets' alot of my
ships started on those. I will look my ships over and copy them down to
vote. Maybe I will make a voting page.

I am calling Kinkos TODAY to see how much it costs to get 6 18"x22"
printout/blowups. I will hold vote to see which of 6 of my stuff will make
the cut. Calling now... Kinko's is $29.99 per 18/24 full color...Mail Box
Etc dont do em... If I cant get anything good in price, I will just do them
on 8 1/2" x 11". Mosiac effect might work too. They are all in the $30 per
pic range and I dont have that much. So 8.5" x 11" is size it seems.

(...) Well, I still think the following would do well: a) An example of previous space series sets (as you suggested above, Scott) since it is good promotional material for adults who are interested in getting back into the craft. b) A MOC section (...)
