watchmen video-journal #5: the owlship
The WATCHMEN-fanboy in me gasped a silent, envious gasp when I peeped Nite Owl's OWLSHIP - nicknamed "Archie" (after Archimedes) in it's 1:1-scaled glory in numerous (if not every) picture-albums of San Diego Comic Con-attendees (shown above) and now to see the actual making off? The WATCHMEN VIDEO JOURNAL [tagged] continues with "Production Journal: The Owlship" on Movies.Yahoo.com - "where Director Zack Snyder and crew construct the Nite Owl's iconic flying vehicle" - which sends me in a tizzy it did :p

I personally love it when they build miniature reference models / dioramas :p

The Street Riot-scene - where Nite Owl will be piloting inside, while The Comedian hangs outside:
(*coolio*)
Panel from the comicbook (for reference):
The Money-Shot of the Interior (*sweet*):
...and somebody HAS to make a scaled-model Owlship to go with the Nite Owl action figure, YES?
*heh*
