    your wish is my command

    I have got to say I am quite chuffed with John Carpenter

    I dont know if he has one now but the photo I have with him on the set of Christine he is sporting a moustache so I have given my little man one, he dosn't look much like John, I mean john is much slimmer than mine and he is only wearing a jumper on the pic I have, but he could have been wearing a jacket earlier so not too worried about that.

        The lights are actually bright white but I thought they looked a bit too harsh so I put a yellow wash over them(that's one advantage over bulbs, bulbs would have burnt it off but not less)to be honest I think I put a bit too much yellow on, too late now though can't take it off.glad you like them though mono.

                    Hi Ken, have had a look at the dio, and as far as I can see it is missing only a few details mate. Crew members loads more would be milling about also equipment cases etc. Christine needs headlights-forget the tailights they are not in shot, also in the film the ground is wet so you need to add some water effects to the road surface.

                    Apart from that, I really cannot see anything else to add.

                      Equipment cases yes of course there would probably be loads about, and probably spare reels of film thanks Si would never have thought of that.

                            Well I've started building the other 2 cameras this time they are not Panavision they are Cisca they are being built as a pair but I am giving one a different lens, also one will be on a tripod and the other will be on a dolly.

                            little bit more detail to put on them then build the tripod and the dolly, then the camera men\women the rest of the crew a boom mike I just suddenly thought of (i wonder if that could\would be mounted on the dolly with the camera) some kit boxes, film reels, all the cables then the dreaded crushing christine into the loading bay.
