Pulp-era Rayguns to blast heroes, dinosaurs, monsters, and Nazis with.

Now those are things of beauty! I really liked the man melter. Perfect for a quick game of Space 1899 I think.

Sigh.

Is it just me, or do those guys have the best job in the world?

cheers, Mark

It's either them, or the guys at PIXAR.

I know at least one guy from Pixar* (strangely enough, he's a New Zealander too. Why didn't the guidance counsellor at High Scool tell me about this stuff?) and I'd say the guys at Weta have a better job.

cheers, Mark

* My old C&S GM - he was first at ILM, then Pixar, then he had his own firm and now he's a freelancer. He did the little greebly green guys in Toy Story

Yes, it must be stressed in 3D animation the hours and hours of very boring fiddling that happens between "cool concept" and "actual finished animation"

Just sent them an email asking if they'd considered expanding thier line. Some of those 30's weapons had backpacks after all. And then there's Buck Rogers Jet packs... ah me.

You're right, they have great jobs. And I'm still in Siberia...
