I must have chosen Renaissance Man as a career option. I paint, draw, sculpt, write, and do photography.
Or put less charitably, "jack of all trades, master of none."

The joy of the creative life is there are no standards, no goals, no limits. Just do whatever you feel like doing to the fullest extent of your skills, facilities, faculties, and creativity.
Of course, it helps if everything is on hand, working, the Muse is making regular deliveries, and you're not tuckered or psyched out from your day job (or in my case, the overnight job).
I've been exhibiting at SF convention artshows since '76.
Starting in '86, I've been writing supplements for role playing games. You can find a list at http://www.pen-paper.net/rpgdb.php?op=showcreator&creatorid=2327
The best known is THE ULTIMATE POWERS BOOK, a treatise on comic book superpowers. You can find it on EBay or download it from the web.Â
As for photography, I'm using a 1976 Minolta SLR, a pair of 1.3 Mp Sanyo digital cameras, and an 8 Mp Canon S5. My computer is a HP Pavilion 4550Z, vintage 1999.
And I have webbed toes.
So does Dan Ackroyd, Madeline Stowe, and one of the Dixie Chicks. Ackroyd and I share the same attitude, "The toes prove I'm a mutant."

Not that it really matters all that much, but the "official length" of the Galactica is considered to be 610 metres

Hmmm..the dimensions of DS9 have been endlessly debated (See Berne Scheider's 'Ex Astris Scientica' site for more info that anyone could possibly fathom..;), there's also the 'DS9 Technical manual', which establishes the 'official' dimensions of the station. I've done a coupla models of the place, and even the worst Galatcica ever done (don't worry none..;), so I can imagine what this took to do..great work, keep it up.

"610 meters"??? That's less than a half mile long. Somebody dropped a decimal point or a digit somewhere. In the original series, the SFX crew talked about the Galactic being three miles long. A length of 610 meters makes the Galactica barely larger than any of the Enterprises. The website "Starship Dimensions" builds cases for three different sizes. I prefer the length of 14,290 feet and a width of 5735 feet.

Find the original BSG book, based on the original movie, from what I recal the ship size is given in the general description of the Galactica. Either way it looks good to me, has a mat painting feel about it.
