Awww Shucks….thanks CC! as to second photo…WADDA WOMAN…that lucky Shaloob guy!
the thermians would be fun to try to sculpt…but don't know if I'd do them 'justice'…will have to see what we can do…as they do look sorta 'SLISH-ish'….(with the double-iris eyes and all….)…
But I guess to some folk…all tentacles look 'alike'??? Help stamp our ceplapoidish bigotry…know your TENTACLES! ***slish….jingle, jingle…Slish**** Sgt DWW…. |

One of the best sci-fi movies ever. Saw it twice in the theater and many times on DVD. I wish they'd make a sequel. |

jpattern, With the Hollywierd track record for sequels? I don't think you really do! |

CC, that is the only science fiction movie I have EVER been able to get my Substantially Better Half to watch, sci-fi being a genre that Sandra would..well, as she says, "I rather drink bleach!"  Funnier still, She *enjoyed* herself immensely. "Never give up! Never surrender!" has become our motto as acouple BTW… One of these days I'll take a stab at building that Berilium mine…. Leland R.

"One of these days I'll take a stab at building that Berilium mine…" Don't forget the "minors/miners": TMP link CC |
| Dances With Words | 19 Dec 2006 12:46 a.m. PST |
I think MiniModelMadness…has small resin kits of the Protedctor AND the 'shuttle' used to get the 'sphere'….if anybody is interested…the 'minors' remind me of 'fish people'…but then again…so do a lot of things…even without tentacles… Sgt DWW |

I really wish someone would find a profile photo of those Thermians! picture

Just some profile photos of Missi Pyle will do :) Jeremey

I do love cephalopds. . . They could even tempt me into 25mm gaming if someone did them right…. |
| Cacique Caribe | 22 Dec 2006 11:08 a.m. PST |
How tall are these "spore mines"? link
link Could their heads be turned into something similar to the Thermian heads (using Greenstuff)? CC |
| Cacique Caribe | 22 Dec 2006 11:24 a.m. PST |
These are the only Thermian cephalopod photos I was able to find among the "historical records": picture

These have to be good for something tentacley: link CC |
| Cacique Caribe | 27 Dec 2006 12:02 a.m. PST |
I found this in the "Questarian" site: picture

link Look at all those beautiful tentacles, DWW! Imagine this in 28mm (though I think the Thermians would be about 20% shorter than humans). CC |
| Cacique Caribe | 29 Dec 2006 2:12 a.m. PST |
I just added a few photos of two greens to the Sci-Fi Wargames Group: link CC |
| Cacique Caribe | 09 Jan 2007 10:34 p.m. PST |
Here is a public link to those "Thermian" photos: link Please remember, this is just my first attempt at a full sculpt. I need all the input and suggestions I can get. So, let me know what you think. Thanks. CC |
| Cacique Caribe | 22 Jan 2007 8:59 a.m. PST |
Can you tell I am new at this Yahoo photo thing? I forgot to make the folder a public access folder: link Sorry. CC |
| BlackWidowPilot | 22 Jan 2007 9:08 a.m. PST |
CC, are my eyes seeing right?! Did you sculpt those in two-part epoxy? IMHO they're EXCELLENT!! IMHO you should auction them off on EBay to the highest bidder to put into production! Leland R. Erickson

metal-express.net P.S. Any chance you'll try your hand next at making an Entelodont? |
| Cacique Caribe | 22 Jan 2007 9:16 a.m. PST |
Leland, Thanks! Funny you should ask about the entelodont. Remember what I proposed to you? TMP link The offer still stands. Send me a handful of those piggies and I will send you a few entelodonts back. CC |

***slish…slish**** Those are BEAUTIMOUS, CC!….you gotta clone them or breed them or mold them or sumpin! The world needs more TENTACLES!!! *snif*…wipes tears away from his multiple eyepods…. Carpe' Tentacle'um!

| Cacique Caribe | 22 Jan 2007 10:02 a.m. PST |
DWW, They were fun to sculpt too. I am working on another variant (slow progress, now with the new work schedule and all), one less "statuesque" and more like a floating head with less rigid-looking tentacles. I hope to have a photo soon. CC
PS. Like my ape heads, I have no idea where to take it from there. |
| alien BLOODY HELL surfer | 22 Jan 2007 10:08 a.m. PST |
CC – same offer stands as it does the ape head regards a trial run of things for you. |
| Cacique Caribe | 22 Jan 2007 10:12 a.m. PST |
Thanks Alien!!! The ape heads will be shipped to you later this week. I will try to have the third Thermian variant ready by then as well. You have made my day. CC |
| BlackWidowPilot | 22 Jan 2007 11:09 p.m. PST |
CC, after what you did with that Thermian, I'll keep holding out for you to sculpt a proper Entelodont from the ground up and have AlienSurfer put 'em in production…why go for half measures, eh? Leland R. Erickson

Thermian #3 is half-way done. I might just meet my self-imposed end of week deadline!!! CC |
| Cacique Caribe | 31 Jan 2007 9:58 a.m. PST |
I guess they could be use as "Slish"? TMP link CC |
| Cacique Caribe | 13 Mar 2007 6:09 a.m. PST |
Alien, Did you get the two Thermians I completed? CC |
| Goldwyrm | 13 Mar 2007 6:14 a.m. PST |
I must have totally missed this topic. By Grabthar's hammer those Thermians do look sweet! Great job! |
| Cacique Caribe | 09 Jul 2007 7:07 a.m. PST |
Future updates will be posted here: link CC
PS. Now that Yahoo Photos is closing in September, I have to transfer my stuff to Flickr. |

Tech Sgt. Chen's girlfriend is cute. Like Goldwyrm, I too missed this topic. Great work there, CC! |
| Cacique Caribe | 28 Aug 2007 1:42 a.m. PST |
Thanks. However, lately all I can really do is small portable projects (things I can do while traveling). CC |
| Cacique Caribe | 14 Nov 2007 10:13 p.m. PST |
I guess that these are the best Thermian photos out on the net: link I hear that Alien Surfer is already working on trial-casting a few. Fingers crossed. CC |
| alien BLOODY HELL surfer | 15 Nov 2007 1:59 a.m. PST |
Yup, CC is right – am doing a trial casting (not me personally) although the caster did ask why I wanted to cast a model penis – then looked at it again and realised what it really was! ;-p |
| Cacique Caribe | 15 Nov 2007 9:17 a.m. PST |
LOL! All photos (and screen shots) are now here: link CC |
| Cacique Caribe | 17 Apr 2010 9:31 p.m. PST |
Alien Bloody Hell Surfer, It's been quite a while (3 years already?) and I have not heard anything else about your plans to cast the Thermians. Are you still planning on casting them, or would you rather send them back to me? link Please let me know. Thanks. Dan
