Hey Paul,
Stupendous!
I have to say that I'm a *huge* fan of retro-scifi. I love the way you've
capture that 50's-G-Rated-News-Reel feel. The whole thing reminds me of all
those cheezy Creature-Double-Feature sci-fi movies I grew up on. I still
love them.
Great job!
Evil Wayne

| (...) Thanks! I wouldn't have built a ship like this, or made that newsreel-thing, if I weren't a huge fan of 50's sci-fi myself. It's good to know that I'm not the only one! (25 years ago, 17-Apr-01, to lugnet.space)
