@starfyre - Yes, ILM is (or was) right in the middle of San Rafael. It was kind of funny, they didnt want alot of SF groupies showing up so they located in a business park and left some of the signs of the businesses that used to be there up. You could go through the whole park and not know it was anything special. Where my brother works is in San Rafael in a very nondescript industrial area. One of the unmarked wearhouses about 100 yards from his place of work held a TON of the actual Starwars stuff..........and yes, I was blessed with being able to go through it. Got to touch the Death Star, saw the star destroyers, too much stuff to mention.....trey cool.
@angus147258 - No, I seldom get down that way but hearing they have such a comprehensive line I might have to make a special trip. I will let you know if I do.
I dont have any problem with age, if you dont have a problem with a chubby 43 yearold.
Like I posted above, post WIP\'s and questions. I wouldnt be able to come down enough to do consistant lessons and the overwhelming amount of advice you can get from this site is WAY beyond what I could ever hope to do.
Havent been there in a year or so, but up in Petulama is a place called Models and More that has some gamming stuff and here in Santa Rosa is a GS called Outer Planes. Reaper, GW, and Privateer Press.
