I got to see one of the G'Kar costumes at the Seattle Science Fiction Museum last weekend. The costume is almost all created out of hot glue and bits and pieces. I was so bummed to hear that Andreas Katsulas passed away from inoperable lung cancer on 13 February. "loved smoking with a passion that cannot be described", was diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer; he passed away a year later, in Los Angeles, California. He was 59. He is survived by his wife and two children. The day after his death, his Babylon 5 co-star Jerry Doyle devoted much of his daily radio talk show to Katsulas, sharing stories of their days working together on Babylon 5.
Regina =============================== Reminds me of when a friend got an upclose look at some of the BBC costumes and props for either Six Wives or Elizabeth R. She said there was a lot of gold painted hot glue! I guess the 10-foot rule applys to tv cameras as well as the stage :). Can't push the envelope quite that far at faire darn it. The Narn costumes were an amazing blend of fabrics, loved the Minbari robes too. I saw that we had lost Andreas last week, hits home right now as my father just had surgery for lung cancer (caught unbelievable early, excellent prognosis). There will never be another G'Kar.
