FANTASTIC! If you have space for it, let's go! If not, I could setup an FTP account just for you.
These pictures are gorgeous!

Thanks! I was going for a film noir look rather than the standard white background. Glad you like them. I am uploading to my server now. I'll send you a link for downloading the zip file shortly.
Thanks!

I think a uniform look in all the pictures will be desirable, but is impossible. Some of the pictures are B/W in origin (and impossible to change them). Others will come from several parts, as you. The rest, well, are my own props and replicas, and could be photographed under light conditions as I would. But I think differences between any set of pictures, from each origin, is a cool idea too.
What (all of you) think about?
If answer is "all props must have the same background and light" this could be a never ending story.... Fyling to each destination point to make I myself the pictures!

I agree with Joan, your photos are GORGEOUS !!!
BTW Spinner44, where the hell did you get your SPINNER medallion ? I ask because, each time I find one on eBay, the seller refuses my bid because I'm not a US citizen... and it only happens with this damn thing ! (I never had a problem acquiring other props in the USA, just THIS one)

The medallion came from Matt Munson. I painted it with Alclad stainless. Thanks!

jfuste - the pics look great!!!
Just curious for the blasters
will each blaster type be simply listed with corresponding photo's - or will blasters ( would take more time and print space ) be broken into makers and sub categories of versions...i.e Rich Coyle v3.....v.4 etc..... listing the changes in each version.
I know the variations can be subtle at best - but I would love to see a version chronology of the major blasters.
Nice work.

Blasters will be a great topic to cover in deep, but print space is very limited. I will need to choose very carefully each topic and content, pictures and sizes. The cars topic will be enought to fill this book and half... The Paul Smith bottle, the same. Deckard's apartment, the same thing. And so on.
Blaster comparison is the minimal I want include. One pic (at least) for each model, as appeared here at Propsummit. The "classics" models, from the real one, thru Rick's concept blaster, thru Coyle, Hartford, Sidkit, etc. models will be a very nice travel and evolution, but, IMHO, is out of boundaries of this book for now.
Only with 200 or more confirmed pre-orders I could add a 30% more pages to the book. Then, blasters will have a very large section.
For now, you can see it, 31 pre-orders done...

Don't forget the 'stunt' casts of the pistol - originally worn by extras, as well. Some made it into private hands and were a valuable resource for replica makers.

Add one to the pre-orders !!
This site is a gold mine when it comes to getting info on the BR collectibles, I think it's sad that there's no official merchendise to be found (besides the unicorn and spinner in the new Final Cut sets)..
Living in Sweden doesnt make things easier either when it comes to finding BR items (The last thing I found was the comic-con "spinner" keychain AND it was on the swedish ebay website)..
I guess having a book that deals with all the BR collectibles and props truly shows that there actually is a market for BR stuff, I wonder if we'll ever see some official items.

John, those photos are artwork, anyone could take those pieces and hang them on their walls. The look is definitely film noir... a great tribute.
I hope you dont mind, but I think I need to shoot my Indy collection in a similar way.

Same thing in Spain... I have to pay high shipping costs to achieve each one of my collection pieces... Sometimes, cost are higher than item itself! Ebay is a great resource, anyway. Others are more risky.
They are two models of this keychain (I have 3 of the one model). First, the Spinner one, second, a very rare mini-blaster one. This second one are not easy fo find...

Yeah. Copyright issues and licenses are the main reason they are not official merchandising at all, except the Final Cut pack.
This book cannot include all the collectibles around, neither in deep. I think will be the first in a series, and thus, it will include the most important props as we think about. There are works in progress, like the blimp replica, that cannot be there for now.
Two alternatives are possible. One, wait until ALL the props and collectibles can be included. This will take one or two years, for sure. And cost of the book will be 3 o 4 times higher, also more pages, of course.
The other. Make a first book, 96 pages or so (perhaps 126, who knows), and include a first selection of real props, how to replicate them, how to identify props in the movie, how to find them... and watch. Is sales permit, I will do a second volume with more info. An so on.
I like the idea of having a little collection of professional finish books made by fans, for fans. Publising these books in the real world like any other book will be impossible, due copyright issues and, basically, a bunch of many other reasons too difficult to avoid. Take a glance at Future Noir. Paul M Sammon had not been able to make an american edition with Harper Collins. The book has been published only in UK and Japan. And is the Bible of BR!!! Imagine the same with a "simple fan book"....

You are right! Perhaps a little poster run will be interesting....

Joan,
I will see what I can do with Photographing my Gun collection (I have about 20 different ones), It will be a couple weeks before I can get all my old info I am afraid. Depends on if I can get my old computer woking enough to access all the stuff on it. Otherwise I am still waiting for my tax refund to buy a new one. Unfortunately I can not upload all the photos from work. New pics I can upload from my camera.
Another Idea with the book would also to have a downloadable PDF file that can be printed out at a small printshop. Would cost more than what you are doing though most likely.
Also do not forget the 'Planta' coat rack.

Wow! This is a HUGE collection!!! Nice.... Dont' worry. There is no date limit for now. I'm looking for several objects here and there, scanning, taking pictures... There is a lot of work to do.

But this is not the way I like it. A PDF file could be done ever, updated, and so, but I don't want to distribute some content in this format. Its too valuable.

Take for sure! I located one!!!!! Flying to home this week....  Also, a Hamilton watch.... Collection grows everyday.... Last item received was an un-cut Tsing Tao caps. Yes, I know the only relationship with BR is the name... but I have several of these little things in my drawers...
Also, 3 x HL70 Braun desktop fans won last week. Two orange ones, one pure white (as in the movie).
Thus... you have a lot of time yet to resolve your computer issues (I wish I where there... I'm, among other things, computer technician... ). If you can afford a new one, this will be fine. You will be more productive too!
