If you were fortunate enough to attend the NNGC, you got an eyefull of some of the best modeling anywhere. Obviously, the “Sundance Central” was a huge (literally) show piece, but the real prize was the competition room. I’ll try to post some pix, but I’m sure other forums will have coverage of it. Really fantastic. If you get a chance to go, DO. Next year is Portland, I believe. I was very happy with the reception of our “Madelin Island” demo layout. (pix soon) Many folks commented that it would have been a contender had it been in the contest room. Flattery will get you a bigger discount apparently. Had an opportunity to talk with the Carstens guys and they assured me that they are still publishing our kit when the annual comes out. Had long talk with many other influencial figures in the industry. As always, everyone loves what we are doing. One trend I noticed is lots more animation and sound. Not just flashing lights but articulated figures and animals. The hotels we showed were a big hit with many saying they would download as soon as we put them up. (sometime in the next week)
Got these pix of the prototype of “Greezy Gus’s” frome someone who visits regularily. Guess they make a good burger. Pictures by Bill Hadley in Ft Worth
