Anyone here a member of the “I’ve Found Her” forum.

What am I saying, stupid question. ; )

Just noticed they’re still not accepting new registrations. Can someone (preferably someone who actually likes the B5Scrolls site ; ) pop over there and post something like this on the “General Discussion” board.

Need to remove the red asterixs obviously. It’s my standard note while spamming forums letting folk know about the bloody thing. . . . . . Oh that’s why they’re not accepting any new registrations.

Cheers.

No easy way to introduce this subtly, so.

After contacting Ron Thornton, to find out who designed one of the ships on Babylon 5, one thing led to another, and a quick exercise in learning how to code up a web page turned into a unique reference site. (5 years, 15 FX artists and one producer later). Among those contacted included Steve Burg, Everett Burrell, Eric Chauvin and Kevin Kutchaver.

The site isn’t going to stay up forever, It was just a hobby, a one off, so I made it downloadable for anyone to keep – no strings, popups, adverts or anything else attached. Just a lot of frank, revealing, wide ranging and occasionally funny interviews from a bunch of artists with enough Emmys between them to field a couple of football teams (that answer a lot of questions and bust a few myths) and a fair bit of previously unreleased concept art, like this.

It’s not so much about the show, but the artists, the art and the technology. Steve Burg (who recently designed the Prometheus for the Ridley Scott movie) described what we talked about as the most in-depth examination of his methodology and approach to design ever carried out. Which, considering Steve’s career, came as a bit of a surprise.

This is a link to a facebook page highlighting the site.

If you read the top post you’ll see why I joined FB and set it up, and why I’m pointing there. It’s far from ideal (a lot of folks aren’t on facebook), but it was the best idea I could think of to let as many know as possible, before the site disappears.

If anyone’s interested, and ain’t on facebook, here’s a link to the website itself. Though if you can ‘like’ that Facebook thing, that would be helpful.

    I just figured out how to get back on their forums... :p

    I've been away for sooooo long...

    I'll give it a shot for you...

    You want everything (minus red asterisks) in the Quote box posted as a message?


    EDIT:

    Ok I posted it for you under my name on their forums... ;)

    Yeah, doesn’t need to be exactly the above, just something to that effect. Let folk know about the concept art, interviews and the facebook page so they can ‘like’ it for the obvious reasons. As well as a link to the site for those that don’t frequent the fourth level of hel . . . . .I mean, Facebook.

    EDIT.
    Shiny.
    Now make that bloody model of Luc's hybrid fighter. ; )

    (Cheers)
