Nice that the other Falcon may have been recovered....
"If the postman stuck to postal procedure he'll empty the mailbox before departing then we just go into transit... like the rest of the packages."
There must've been a Slave I in the mailbox, tracking the package!

Great news on the Falcon ADY. Both on the one you have recieved and the one you may still recieve. Maybe you can sell that number two to free up some more cash.
Just make sure you insure it ;)
well the Post Office can, as Bender would say "kiss my shiny metal ass". Are they completely run by morons? Can you tell i'm a bit pissed off? lol
Went all the way into town to the sorting office and then stood around for about 10 minutes waiting for someone to come to bloody reception. gave them the card to collect the model and waited for them to bring it. You will not believe what they tried to palm me off with. I was expecting the guy to come back with a huge box but instead came back with this half shredded tiny package. i asked him if they were taking the piss and he said that, according to what he had written down, that this was the Millennium falcon model they had found but had not been delivered because the package was damaged and the address label had come off. When i tried to explain to the moron that the model that they had lost was huge he tried to tell me that i must have been mistaken and to at least take a look to see if it was my model. Now this is just how badly run by complete idiots the Post Office has become. i removed what was left of the packaging and inside was indeed the Millennium falcon....... the bloody Revell easykit pocket model. Bloody £6 worth of model. and guess what, inside there was an invoice with the address of the real recipient who, according to the invoice, lived in Buckinghamshire. the guy just laughed at me and said i might as well take it because they won't repackage it and deliver it because it doesn't have an address label or stamp left on it and that at least i would now have a model. i almost jumped over that desk and planted him one right on the jaw. not only won't i be getting the original model i paid for due to the post office but the person who ordered the pocket model also won't be getting there's because of the mishandling of Post Office staff. How hard is it for them to relabel and sent them this item. Oh yes, i took the model and refused to sign for it so they can't say i now have my model and refuse to pay me any compensation. took it into town, stuck it in a jiffy bag and relabelled it and paid the £1 postage so at least this person won't be screwed over by the PO.
as you can guess i really need to try and calm down now. lol
All we need now is for the guy who ordered the tiny one to give you a call and say "Yeah, I got this huge one instead..."
Shit. I guess we were all a bit hasty with our optimism there. What a bunch of assholes!
Oh and Ady, don't try and assemble the Falcon when you're this angry, or it might end up in even more pieces :p

I'll have to read back on what shots it's being used for, but this sounds to me like it's a very meticulous job. I haven't a single doubt that this edit is going to be spectacular! :)
Also, I second the above. A worklog of sorts would be amazing!
& it won't give anything away like the prievious thursday shots did as it is all BTS stuff

the weekly screenshots were only as a lead-up to the trailer. there will be no more clips or screenshots posted until after the movie is finished and released. there will be some pics of the models and sets posted though but those are a long way off yet, and also the video blog may be happening too.
Fair enough, it was worth a try LOL

I was wondering if in some scenes that showspeeders dont cast shadows, it could be possible to recreate with vue some of them so the shadows will be realistic..

If in a previous/next frame there is clean background you can isolate it and use it where the saber is. Much more dificult on a character..

Reports of the decency of our former National Health Service have been greatly exaggerated, I could tell you stories from that arena that would make Ady's postal calamities seem trivial in the extreme.
I'm glad that Ady posted the wee Falcon on, I've lost many items in the post myself so I'd be over the moon if someone took the trouble to do this for me.

You, of course are completely wrong. Have a look in the mirror.
I love everybody. Lets all smoke some reefer and chill. Hug and kisses for everybody.
