    The Importance of the Acronym

    Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

    Design of Battlestar Galactica

    Sunday, April 20th, 2008

    I had seen episodes here and there over the last few years, but I’ve really gotten into Battlestar Galactica for the fourth and final season. The show is really well done in every way. As an artist and designer, I can’t help but to draw inspiration from it. You can learn a lot by [...]
