Disney's The Black Hole modeling (I need some help please.....)
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, September 16, 2006 10:35 PM

 

Hello!

I probably know some of you from the other modeling forums I am on, but this is my first post here.  :)  Hi to you all.  Smile [:)]

I am in terrible need of some help with a model I am working on.  It is from one of my favorite sci-fi movies from Disney, called The Black Hole.  It had some great model work in the USS Cygnus and the USS Palomino. 

Well, Charles Adams over at starshipbuilder.com is working on a Studio Scale of the USS Cygnus (!!!!!) and I am personally starting research for a Studio Scale model of the USS Palomino model!

The Palomino was one of my favorite models from The Black Hole because it was unique in it's simple design.  So, what I have done is collect MANY magazines from the late 1970's and 1980's that have "Making Of's" of the Black Hole movie by Disney and have just a few photos of the model used in the movie. 

I am writing you all to ask for HELP!!!!!!!!!! HELP!  I need more photos and better information on the Palomino ship.  I know there were two models made for the movie and they were fairly large. 

I also know that one of the Palomino models is (or was) on display at the Disney/MGM Backlot tour.  I VERY MUCH would like to find someone with photos or video of the USS Palomino model.  That would be a dream come true.  Or anyone that might have better photos..........just something to go on. 

Well, I wanted to thank you all for your help.  PLEASE PLEASE email me if you have ANY ideas or know of anyone I should talk to about Disney's The Black Hole movie modeling.  I GREATLY appreciate it!!!!   Wink [;)]

         God Bless,

Chuck, Arkansas USA
