Well, it's pretty obvious I didn't get the monitor done yesterday, or the day before, but it will get done today. I was down in my back yesterday and this morning, so I pulled out some other projects and started texturing them, while I try to work out a few of the other projects. Anyway, you can see below some of the progress I've made, these will all be available as soon as they are done and some are going to be I:I scale props. It's Spring here, so I hope to start work on a I:I TOS Captains Chair. Stay tuned.

Someone said I never finished a project.... I just had to laugh. I've finished more projects and products in the last year than anyone knows. I'm just working on getting the site together and the storefront and the new forum.

You can see the production on the monitor below, but you can als see some finished works.

I submitted yet another blueprint for your perusal as well.

If I keep going at this rate, I'll have my own TOS set done and will be able to move forward with my movie. I hope to have the Refit done as well, that will be in the movie too. Some people talk a lot of smack about me, but I remember what my Dad told me. "Some people can talk a good game, but they can't walk the walk. If they can't run with the big dogs, they need to stay on the porch." There was a lot of wisdom in those words.

So, I should have the monitor done and be ready to finish up a couple of other things. Keep on Trekkin! =/\=

Well, we had a lovely sunny day here today, so I got a lot done. We've got a weeks worth of rain coming, so I did my out door chores.... Already cutting grass. At any rate, I got a little done on my blogs today and Started a new one the other day, I should start populating it this week. I've got just about everything ready to ship out tomorrow, so I'm happy about that. Here are my blogs and my Youtube page. I'll be back with more finished projects and completed models. very soon. The blogs will have to suffice until I finish getting all of the website and what-not wrapped up.

Since this all started on another forum and since it started with Ron Caudillo's Card Model and Alan Sinclair's Blueprints..... and since I'm back on it creating new parts to give to a couple of friends, I thought I would share some of the recent work on the 350th TOS. Once again, I will have mine out before another major manufacturer of toys and props and models. Just think, this kit would have been available to the public more than five years ago, were it not for a collection of haters and bashers and no-talent hacks. And it all started with paper! Below are a few photos to whet your whistle, more to come on my blog, stay tuned for updates.... Oh yeah, I'll be getting some more photos of the Monitor and the consoles up soon.
