Ignatz,

Man, you're killing me with these images! I can't see them in all their paper-frame-and-plastic-lens glory! I'm at the point where I'm ready to break down and order a pair online.

Can you animate a model in 3D? If you can do that, I'll totally buy a pair of glasses! It wouldn't have to be much, just a slow camera pass over the ship, like a love letter to a nerd.

Hah! I found my 3D glasses! These are super-cool images! I laugh when

I look at them. Great stuff!

David,

I could certainly make an animation, but the render time would be something like four minutes per frame. That would tie up my computer for quite a while. Maybe in the near future I could set that up and let it render - bit by bit - over a number of days at night while I sleep. We'll see.

Ignatz,

No need now. I found my glasses! It was like, "If I'm gonna buy some 3D glasses, I'm gonna need some motivation!" I had some paper glasses from a kid's book on sharks; you know, the sharks are in 3D, so they look extra scary.

It would be cool to see the ship in motion, but, wow! It's not worth anywhere near that kind of effort.

The world looks better in 3D!
