Studio stuff and great finds

While suffering from a bad tooth that got infected waiting for a dentist appointment (which I have today) I have been just messing around the studio.

I got the Jag primed and painted BRG.

Worked a bit on the Type 23 German U-boat. You love the brass prop I got for it. Converting the cylinder to a snort system with an air pump for ballast.

I found cool stuff in my storage closet I’m starting to go through. Like the original script, synopsis and budget for my film “Vortex” you know as “The Day Time Ended” today. The original title was better but the executive producer Irwin Yablans thought people wouldn’t understand the title. Oh well. I guess he didn’t either.

I also found a studio copy sent out to broadcasters of the Worlds of Wonder TV commercial I did. That was Doug Jones first job ever and the first time I ever worked with him. We have been friends ever since. It’s because of this commercial he got Mac Tonight that launched his career. This is a 3/4 inch copy. Hi res for those days I need to get this transferred. It was a great commercial. I’m going to put these up for auction and I will sign them. I thought they were lost.

I found my International UFO Reporters. All of them. This was put out by the late great J. Allen Hynek brought credibility to the subject like no other back in the 70’s. He appears in Close Encounters of the Third Kind, (a term he coined). These are in incredible condition. I treasure these!

I finally got a decent picture of this 2001 painting I did awhile ago with a model of the EVA Pod suspended in front of the Star Gate.

I’ll always find more. I’ll save it for further posts. Now I’m off to get yet another tooth pulled. Getting old is hard. But I prefer it to the alternative.
