    This makes me wonder about a paper airplane version of the TurboKat. And
by that I mean a simple folded version, not a compicated assembly. I seem to
recall some famous origamist would make paper versions of popular aircraft,
and I figure with a lot of work and planning I might be able to construct
something as well, and it might even fly too. Course, I say that now....

    I think so, I haven't memorized the names of too many. I believe they were
made specifically for the videos, were they not?

    The Tremblays did each, correct?

    The Tremblays are good artists, but I presonally prefer something not quite
as sketchy as the styles they displayed on the video and video game boxes.
I find art with better, more 3-D renderings of technology appealing to my eye
and angular patch inking instead of the heavily feathered kind. Sort of like
what animators would draw the cels like if they had a dozen years and $100
million to work with.
