A handy-dandy size reference chart:



Again, Sorry for not re-sizing. Got to go. Class starts at 9:10 AM!

Love the chart, Eadie! Thanks for sharing it! Very Happy

For the record, do you know how long it takes ME to resize your over-sized images, using my access to Butch's Imgur account? (With his permission.)

15 seconds! Shocked

I don't mind doing it 'cause I think your wonderful . . . but I know that a brilliant young lady like you could do it in 10 seconds!

I mean, Hell's Bells . . . I'm 70 years old! Cool

Terrific chart, Eadie, much thanks from a lifelong fan of Gerry Anderson's productions.

The models created for GA's sci~fi TV shows were usually fantastic looking designs which hold up well even today.

Derek Meddings, a legend,& his team were talented masters of design and execution on the models and special FX.

Brian Johnson would beautifully continue the model and FX work with his team after Derek left to work on the James Bond franchise.

Derek's undersea complex for "The Spy Who Loved Me'' remains one of my favorite designs by Meddings and one of the finest ones from the 007 franchise.

As a fan of underwater habitats and technology like those I've illustrated in several post for the Science now, add Fiction later forum with threads like Tethered Undersea Cities, I love Stromberg's underwater lair. I really believe that such innovations will exist in our future.
