Comamder Ed Straker, head honcho of SHADO, from Gerry Anderson's first live action series, '69's "UFO". Head morph is mostly by Werts, but I did some tweaking of my own to (I hope?) improve the likeness further.

DAZ Studio render.

I think it looks great! Any fan of the show could tell this is Cmdr Straker even without any titles. As I'm watching the series on DVD and especially the first season for the first time, I am very impressed at just how good the shows are and what a good actor Ed Bishop is. It really is a shame the show didn't continue on for more than 2 seasons.

This is a show that if done well, ala Battlestar Galactica could prove to be a good one to have a reimagined version done with. And if so they better come see your work and hire you as creative consultant! And seriously consider your UFO 2KK material.

Well there's supposedly a movie in the works, but I kind of think it got stalled out.

I would be interested in the movie if it was done well and respectful, if even reimagined. Ala: the new version of Battlestar Galactica ( I SOO love this version of Galactica, and do have aal the Galactica available on DVD, even the classic and yep, Galactica 1980(still pretty awful, but some how, less awful than I remember. I still hate the Galactica motorcycles, and the overall cheesiness and cornballness of that show. But, it did have a few somewhat cool moments and ideas.).

They're both classics in their way.... at least the first season of 1999. the second season got more shallow. But UFO... that's a show I still admire, respect, and enjoy (when I have some time to kill before bedtime ;) ).

UFO was, no, *IS* really cool and the DVD set I have has a really excellent quality. So it is pleasure to watch it.

The first season of 1999 has a more classic scifi aproach to it. The second season is more like a "B-movie" with all that Maya-monster-transformations.

If I remember correctly every boy in school at that time wanted to be chief pilot Alan Carter =D =D =D LOL and I still think that the design of the Eagle is a timeless classic :nod: Love it :)
