Fourth Fralthi Forms

Michelle D, creator of a pretty fantastic Gratha model is setting sights on an even more detailed Fralthi project, thanks to the recent release of high resolution Wing Commander FM Towns artwork.

Review New Gemini Gold Intro

John Cordell was nice enough to send along an advance copy of the Privateer: Gemini Gold intro movie! He explains:

I've managed to complete the Privateer Gemini Gold HD intro during the last weeks. Indeed I thought I would never find the time to do it but then... and it would be a shame to hold it back until the next version of Gemini Gold is complete, would it? Also there might be some "space" to improve it! I would like to hear your feedback and suggestions about it. But this is also a call for help. If somebody would like to contribute Mr. Burrows i would be more than happy to make him show up again.
Another team member, Don, is already working on the Privateer Outro. But it is too early to show anything yet.. For now, please enjoy the movie and have a nice weekend!
