This really brings a smile to my face, Jon!
Jan Michael Vincent, the American Mel Gibson? Yes, I can see it!
Looks like you're off to a fantastic start!
Eagerly awaiting more,

Having seen Jan Michael Vincent in the abortion Hollywood made of Roger Zelazny's Damnation Alley where they jacked up the title and ran and entirely different story underneath, I can believe this story quite easily.
Beautiful work on the model.

Looks like I forgot to post some update photos, these are from last July. :-[
Still not finished and still putzing with backstory graphics and 'movie' posters.
