Will the portables be in it, or is this "consoles" in the strict sense?

Hey, get some Novus cleaner. You can get 1&2 and use that,along with a buff cloth and a normal eraser. If you work hard at it you can usually remove light to medium scuffs, or at least make them much less noticeable.

I think that the Duo looks cool with the scratches/ battle scars.

Thanks for the suggestion PCEHell - I tried some things but found out that toothpaste and a bit of scrubbing with a toothbrush cleaned up all of the scuff marks.  I've re-shot the scene with the cleaned up DUO-R and looks much better.

WOW... I am very happy how the film is turning out so far (I am 2/3 through the edit)...my primary goal this time around was to create a moving, beautiful work of art and I believe I have succeeded.  New screenshot below:



FYI, the bluish "flare" seen in these shots is intentional (as a "highlight flare").

works of freak'n art man… & that flare is looking amazing, just curious can you get different colours out of the flare? like golds or deep reds?... but the blue looks hot.

nice font choice as well, for future projects this is a great resource… http://www.dafont.com/theme.php?cat=601
