CLASSIC ART: THE ENDURING SAGA...

Great fan art of the enduring heroes and villains of the Glen A. Larson created classic series. It looks like a new movie (from the talented Simon Kinberg) and separate TV series are on the way (then again, we've heard all this before, haven't we?), but they'll never beat the original for its epic sense of space adventure and unique galactic 'family' spirit.

Great art by Neil Davies.

A pleasant look back at the series:

CLASSIC ART: TIME OF THE CYLON!

Their ability to do evil may have diminished over the course of the series, but the Cylons nonetheless remain one of sci-fi TV's most memorable villains, and they always looked good onscreen, as seen here in another of Jean-Pierre Dorleac's stunning original costume design pieces that went up for auction a few years back. It's a shame that the trident weapon never made it to reality, though perhaps it was deemed too scary a weapon for a family audience.

CLASSIC IMAGE: A VIEW TO DESTRUCTION!

From her spacial viper cockpit vantage point, Sheba watches the deliberate explosive detonations on the Galactica's hull wrought by Apollo and Starbuck's specially placed explosives, in this dramatic moment  near-concluding Fire in Space.

CLASSIC ART: COMING IN TO LAND.. (MCQUARRIE)

 

Another terrific concept piece by Ralph McQuarrie for Star Worlds, then Galactica, showing one of the mighty vessel's landing bays with some exterior attachments (ultimately removed to make the important area a more streamlined visual by the time of approved model construction).
