Ady, thanks for the update and sneak peek at the Vader shot (and thanks too to Angel for pointing it out).
A couple questions for you though:
First, could you refresh my memory... why are you doing a new Echo Base and Falcon model? I forget what problems these were supposed to help you fix (i.e., specific shots? Continuity issues?)
Secondly, what are the donations helping you with exactly? I'm assuming they're going towards materials for the various physical elements you're currently constructing?
Lastly, the idea of pasting our faces into ESB:R is interesting, but I wonder if I'd even like to see my own face in it (on the one hand it would be kinda cool, but on the other it might take me out of the movie... and yet I'd be IN the movie... how ironic). At any rate, regardless of the whole cameo thing, I wasn't aware that funds were still so desperately needed, and I'd like to contribute again. Before I do, though, is there any "minimum" donation that makes it worthwhile? I ask only because once the funds get changed from Canadian to British currency, I'm not sure how "usable" a donation becomes.
And please, don't ever let a lack of funds, some people's desire for a definitive release date, or simply exhaustion discourage you from finishing this edit. I'd rather ESB:R take 20 years to complete than to have you abandon it altogether :)
Now go get some sleep man! :)
