OK... I'm done bitching for tonight, at least :) Sorry, 'bout that' folks... Anyways; I've dressed the P4 dork up in leather, and introduced him for the waitress in the diner. Looks like they might be a match. *heh* The two green arrows are to show several missing thingies. I think there will be a 50's ceiling fan offered shortly by a very talented modeller. AND I should have pup up some stuff on the table, - however, hubby says that one thing that NEEDS to be here is the tabletop jukeboxes. I have a picture of one... one sec...

This picture came with Microsofts first version of Image Composer. As it is posted here it's in .jpg format. I have it with an alfa chanel. BUT I've tried to twist my brain to figure our how to model this.. Any good tips, or anybody up for the challenge?

That dont look like it would be too difficult to model in wings3d.Got any more shots?

"Reinstall Windows" is NOT a troubleshooting step.

Nope. that's the only one I've been able to find. I know that somebody posted some pictures of interior of diners a week or so ago, but they didn't show any details of this type of jukeboxes.

Very cool. That juke box should not be too hard to model.

I'm older than dirt and actually used one. The glass face is round. That little dohicky under the three plays Quarters sign is a wheel The little cards you see through the glass have a list of ten songs each on each side. There are five cards total for 100 songs. To see the full list of songs you turn the wheel by hand to spin the cards to the next set of songs. There are little clips on the edge of the window that hold the cards open. Some of these were two sided so kids on both sides of a 4 seat booth could use them. Some were just mounted against the back wall of each booth. They were connected to the big Jukebox in the corner. Common brands were Wurlitzer and rockola.

I just saw one of those exact radios at a table in a restaurant I went to this weekend in Myrtle Beach...the colors, wording, everything is the same. Very cool and hope you can bring a Bryce version of this. :) MD

That is a great scene, just love the way he is stroking his hair (sooo typical LOL)

I'll be a bit busy over in the 1600's section, fixin' some pants and rats. lol I'll have to look more into that jukebox later. But I did try that link, and didn't get anywhere. Since I didn't grow up here in the states, I'm not really familiar with those tabletop jukeboxes, so I wouldn't quite know where to start modelling it in Amapi. Britt

The goatee seems out of place for the era, but very nice work nonetheless! :-)
