(All Bryce)(Click on image for a bigger pic)

'bout five years out of date. ;-)

Oh very droll! It took me a while but I get it now.....Doh!

(shouldv'e mentioned before) Looking good; an encouraging start.

Nice to see a properly on topic post, too! ;-)

it's the side thrusters for the Pods from Discovery from 2001.. tried modeling it myself once..not this good, tho..;)

The only ones I've seen modelled in other apps have used bump maps to make the cutouts on the outer rim, the black pieces and the thruster holes.

I want to try to make a very acurate Bryce model. This section isn't quite finished but I think I'll be able to get there.

Thanks for the comments.

Open the pod bay doors HAL!

I said OPEN THE POD BAY DOORS HAL!

A puppy ?

Alright - give the Dalek his neck back.

They may be evil, but they ARE living tissue under that hood - you barbarian!

Len. (New series starts Saturday BTW)

Maybe where you are...lucky so 'n' so...
We in the states are just about half way through with the 2005 series. Not that I'm complaining, mind you. I'm enjoying the series very much. As a long time fan, I'm happy with what they've done to it to bring it up to the 21st century. I'm very much looking forward to the 2006 season if for no other reason than they're bringing back some old friends and some old bad guys as well. But, we've got to wait until 2007 to see them...

Hahahaaa! - poor Ganthor :tt2:

Still - I should think we do get to see it first - it's our bloody licence fee that paid for it !

Len.

BTW...nice work 'Bryster - very nice 

Len.

Oh, well...Yes! of course. No hard feelings at all. I can see pictures, a few clips, hear about it from fans and etc. Anything worth having is worth waiting for. Besides, I'm still hunting down and watching the first and second Doctor's serials.
As an aside, I never quite understood how a television system like what the UK has actually survives. But then, the crap we have to put up with....I leave mine off most of the time anyway....

what other series has featured flatulent aliens?..;) It's on tonight..;)

This conversation can serve no further purpose..goodbye Dave..;)

LOL - Well it's certainly not out of the 'publics' choice over here - that's for sure.

While the British produce excellent programs - unfortunately, they have to spoil it by being as tight as a gnats arse - and ramming reality after reality after reality show down our necks.

It's really unbearable.

I won't bore you with the inexhaustable list of crap we HAVE to pay for 'cos the list would be so long it would quite possibly bring R'osity to it's knees - but you get the idea.  And of course, I REFUSE to pay-out yet MORE money for Murdock's "little white box of magic tricks".

Len. ( And if I EVER pick-up the TV guide and spot "UK Top 10.000.000 Reality-Shows", well... )

I tried TMA1 once. Couldn't get the walls to curve.  Lost the model. Here's all that's left of it.

Reality shows? Blame us. So far as I know, we didn't invent them, but we sure made them popular, damnit all. I don't care for them myself, sort of like the trash talk shows. I don't need television to remind me how revolting the human race can be.
Re electroglyph:
Too bad about the model, it was a great start, although doing the astronauts would have been a bear. To throw some trivia into the pot, this sequence was the first shot on the first day of shooting on the film in 1964! About the same time Kubrick (sp?) was shooting at the Pinewood studios in England, half a world away at the Desilu studios in Hollywood, the first pilot for Star Trek was being shot. By the time 2001 was shot, edited and released, the entire Star Trek series was pretty much over. Hmmmm...if Stanley Kubrick had shot Star Trek....

side thrusters for the Pods from Discovery from 2001?

Just a quick guess of course :b_funny:

What the hell are you lot on about? What tv show? eh! eh! Come on, spill it!

Come off it Chris - the Doc get's broadcast even as far as Wales!

Saturday evening is now TVDay for the next thirteen, yes, 13 weeks :thumbupboth:

Len. (Well, if you're in the UK and you like a bit of sci-fi it is anyway)

They're talking about Dr who; the new series, I believe.

This most likely is not what it is, but your model looks nearly like that tornado probe this meteorologist just successfully put in a tornados path recently. only yours looks better. hahaa.

Tornado probe? Now that you mention it, it does look like one. If the Discovery pod idea doesn't pan out, well....there you go.

I have read this entire thread... but I'm still convinced that it's actually an auotmatic hoover.
:tt2:
