    One of the models I'm working on is now so large, at least when it's loaded up inside the 3D editor, it can no longer be opened on a 32bit OS, I need to be on Vista 64 to open it up. This makes me feel manly indeed, and I can see two new chest hairs have sprouted up as a result. Total polygon count for the beast is over 2 million (I think). Harrr! The HMSS Invincible[^] in drydock, outside of low Mars orbit. Collection of various related shots[^] Considering our complete impotence at running a successful space program, this is probably as close to Mars as I'm going to get.

      I don't think a dry dock can get any dryer than that. :) Very cool.

        Very cool indeed. Seeing your ship, I had a sudden flash-back of Captain Harlock for a moment.

            Personally, I love the idea that Raymond spends his nights posting bad regexs to mailing lists under the pseudonym of Jane Smith. He'd be like a super hero, only more nerdy and less useful. [Trevel]

              Wasn't Speed Racer considered Anime as well? You can't tell me you don't remember that.

                  For once, someone is actually utilizing a 64bit OS. Great images....by the way.

                                We had some very nice Ferrari laptops running Vista 64 many years ago. The only thing special was th carbon fibre lid and Ferrari badge on the mouse! Bit naff, but one of the PMs was in love with them. He borrowed one from our test pool and didnt give it back for ages. What a twat he was.

                                    Wasn't Speed Racer considered Anime as well? You can't tell me you don't remember that.

                                    No not really. I guess I didn't watch that much TV as a kid, or it didn't make that much of an impression. Star Trek, 6 Million Dollar Man, Charlies Angles, Bionic Woman, Star Blazers, Mork and Mindy, those I remember, Speed Racer, not so much. :)

                                      Personally, I love the idea that Raymond spends his nights posting bad regexs to mailing lists under the pseudonym of Jane Smith. He'd be like a super hero, only more nerdy and less useful. [Trevel]

                                        Pretty cool. What CAD program did you use to make that?

                                        It's not a CAD program, I'm using Houdini[^]. A very cool program, especially from a programmers perspective.
