I've read both good and bad about him, I'm inclined to believe the good.

Don't know anything about him but I like your render. It would look good on a poster advertisement.

I have to agree with you GMS. Don't believe you can live for such a long time (95 years) and have any hate or ill will within you.

Thanks for the comments Erisian. :)

That came out great, Lyle.
McHale’s Navy was good but The Dirty Dozen was my favorite.

ed.,
I checked my DVD collection last night for Borgnine and found a movie I've never watched called "Marty".

He played the devil once, he was very good at it. The article I read was about the old series Airwolf. Supposedly the star, Jan Michael Vincent was a jerk and Ernie tried to make all the guest stars feel at ease.

Nicely done Lyle.
I have to say McHale's Navy was one of my favorite shows when i was just a kid.

prepare to be amazed. "Marty" is a beautifully subtle film and the acting is outstanding.

You MUST watch Marty, such a classic and for good reason. Ernest looked so healthy and active up to the end, just saw him on tv a couple weeks ago and was amazed when they mentioned his age.
