bluespace88 9 Report post Posted October 26, 2009 but why are there electric lamps in 1885 and you're confusing me x_X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe Statler 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2009 I wonder, how many reference images Liam uses for each era. It must be a high number. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LGisby 1 Report post Posted October 26, 2009 Ok folks, no need to argue, after all "I'm just a guy, doing a job..." Actually, I think this is coming along okay, I've got the original skecthup models somewhere and I know that microman, while definitely using them, has done quite a bit of work to the saloon at least. Clocktower is waaaay off with the scaffolding and as for the Wells and Fargo building; compare: http://www.outatime.it/ritornoalfuturo/fra...x.php?cs=385625 http://www.outatime.it/ritornoalfuturo/fra...=201350&p=3 The second one's not the best shot, but you'll see that they're the same building (in a cinematic sense).

bluespace88 9 Report post Posted October 26, 2009 whats with that lamp? 1885 Hill valley does not have electricity yet, nor metal structures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe Statler 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2009 (edited) whats with that lamp? 1885 Hill valley does not have electricity yet... Actually it does, in Doc's blacksmith shop. But yea, electricity wasn't available to the general public then. It was just starting to be used practically in 1885.

bluespace88 9 Report post Posted October 26, 2009 true, some electricity, but lamp posts? They were using lanterns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe Statler 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2009 (edited) oh, which part of doc's blacksmith shop had electricity? Too bad I uninstalled VLC or I'd take a screenshot. But the part where their using the model railroad. He clearly had some kind of electric set up for powering the model train. Remember that huge lever he was pushing as the model accelerated. Especially the sparks when he first grabbed a hold of the lever. You edited your post Edited October 26, 2009 by Joe Statler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
