Battlestar Galactica and the Business of Particle Effects

Alexis_lange Second Effects is ArminasX Saiman's blog, and it's mainly devoted to his Second Life business, Electric Pixels.  That may seem dry, but it's a particle effects studio, which means he gets clients looking for a uniquely odd range of requests.  What do you do, for example, when a Battlestar Galactica roleplayer hires you in the hopes that you'll install a better afterburn effect into her Viper?  At first Saiman is stumped, until he comes up with a brilliant workaround.  (As long as the pilot keeps seated, that is.)  Read about it here.

This viper is strange. It has small position for avionics,fuel,man etc. It is too shrunk and it has too artificial texture
