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.
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!!!!
God Bless,
