Thanks everyone for your concern... we got the basement cleaned out, but I still have to replace all my fried electronics... when the lightning struck I could feel it in my teeth and the wife said her hair stood up on end... I'm certainly not done with dios, just my big projects have to be cancelled as I had spent wayyyy to much time and money on them... but I have some smaller, managable ones in mind... I have the first third of the sequel filmed, but sadly the last half is what had all the major sets... I had an alleyway, rooftop, warehouse, stairwell, hallway, and elevatopr shaft all finished and self lit with dollhouse lights and vents and fake water I got from a model train shop... never got any photos of them done cause I was planning on finishing up the pictures this month anyways... oh well... rest assured I am keeping the basement empty from artwork from now on!

I'll try to post the first third when I replace my computer and modem... until then, keep shooting and keep your toys dry!

Is there any memorial preview shots still available anywhere?

you are by far one of the best it is a shame this happened.

I really sorry that happened to you the same thing happened to me last year, thats why I do most of my big things either in my room or living room then I move them to the up stairs where they will be dry.
I hope you are able to do g.i. joe dios but your family sounds like that they need you right now.

Well, the house is pretty much patched up... and I've slowly been rebuilding my dio supplies... I was going to sell off alot of supplies to pay for repairs, but it looks like I can wait on that until this chapter is finished... thanks everyone for your help... a third of the sequel is shot and I will be shooting today as well... I might actually be able to get this done sooner than I thought!

That's REALLY great news Luke! Very much looking forward to this!
