COSI Midnight Opening Event

Last weekend I had the chance to fly from Nevada to Columbus, Ohio, for the opening of Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination at COSI. Check out the COSI Star Wars exhibit blog for continuing coverage of the exhibit's stay in Ohio. Follow this link to the gallery I created for the pics I took.

I spent the weekend with my buddy Joe (Corroney that is, Star Wars artist and swell guy - link to his blog at left). We attended the midnight to 3AM premiere, then went back again on Sunday afternoon. On both occasions we joined Justin of World Famous Comics (known in our community for his Star Wars sketch card art, and as the model for Jedi Kai Justiss)

Joe took the opportunity of having a large memory card in my camera, and plenty of 501st costumes around to shoot a bunch of reference shots to file away for potential art assignments down the road. If you were suited up Friday or Sunday and Joe or I asked to take your picture, you'll find it here.

In the middle of my photo gallery, between all of the great costume shots, are pics of the movie costumes and props on display in the exhibit. If you are in the Ohio area, it is a must stop location. The exhibit will be in Columbus through September 4. The exhibit will be heading to Portland, Oregon, next.

date Posted: Jun 09, 2006 2:17 PM I've made it to the first 3, so I couldn't possibly miss number 4. Any chance you'll head out west for San Diego Comic Con? Always nice to get to know a fellow Artoo fan. And I've been out of the loop, any announcements on your presidential race?

I am only 1 1/2 hour drive from Columbus

Really MO2???? I'm about 2hrs away (approx 130-135 miles northeast) from Columbus. I'll be going tomorrow (6/10), and I absolutely cannot wait. I tried to go to the opening, but, alas, could not get the night off of work--I work every other Friday & Saturday nights, and we "lost" a couple of nurses on "my weekend" rotation

Oh well...at least I still get to go.

. Hey...drop me an email sometime and I'll let you know how it was!!

Glad you had a great time in Ohio, bonemanNV
