Ertl model box Klingon ship airbrushed illustration
My boy Rick Wawiernia did this Klingon spaceship illustration in 1991 when he was commissioned by Ertl to do the actual model box cover. I think they did use it... I wish I had that box. Rick pretty much taught me everything I know about the paasche VL today.

Final Fantasy: The spirits within
It is the first all cg film to go where most producers and artist just simply will not go. Hyper realistic character and futuristic tech design.
This genre of film obviously lacks the return profit that goofy dancing cg animals or cartoony characters do as it isolates only a small population of viewer, probably a techy male from ages 12 on up.
Spirits within has been criticized for its "weak" story line and the ever so popular and overly used term "uncanny valley syndrome" but I think everyone will agree that the only thing uncanny is the technical achievement by Square and all of the artists involved on the project.
Final Fantasy: The spirits within has been airing lately in High definition on HD.net and is still my favorite all cg movie to date. Kudos to Square for taking a chance and pushing the medium beyond anything we've ever seen.
It's difficult to find a whole lot of information on artists who have worked on the film and even the bonus disc doesn't disclose a whole lot of information on the subject. Though there is a commentary version on the bonus DVD, it's geared more towards the creation of the cg characters as opposed to the technical elements of the film.
There is a making of Final fantasy: The spirits within book.
Stay tuned for number nine of the most influential concept ship design in film countdown here on conceptships.blogspot.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

New and Improved Antimatter Spaceship for Mars Missions and the x-43A & x-43B
A little dose of reality today...
Most self-respecting starships in science fiction stories use antimatter as fuel for a good reason – it’s the most potent fuel known. While tons of chemical fuel are needed to propel a human mission to Mars, just tens of milligrams of antimatter will do (a milligram is about one-thousandth the weight of a piece of the original M&M candy).
However, in reality this power comes with a price. Some antimatter reactions produce blasts of high energy gamma rays. Gamma rays are like X-rays on steroids. They penetrate matter and break apart molecules in cells, so they are not healthy to be around. High-energy gamma rays can also make the engines radioactive by fragmenting atoms of the engine material. Read the rest of the article RIGHT HERE!
