No, but I can tell you where all the primary changes took place.

First, there's general bookkeeping, where we fix spelling errors, font issues, registration, etc. For example, Liann Jiun was spelled wrong on two pages of the ARC and I had Elwin's Relay in two places, so I always try to get the fixes in right away.

Second, two full pages were added to the ARC to feature an influx of fan named asteroids, relays and space stations. The new asteroids were catalogued and added to additional pages in The Verse in Numbers (TVIN). With the addition of the new asteroids in the Halo belt, at lagrangian points and elsewhere, new diagrams replaced the old ones in TVIN. A handful of the asteroids from the Six Sigma Swarm were named in the Penglai system.

Third, some world were added. Angel now boasts 3 small moons and the planet Theophrastus was added. Theophrastus was a world named in the recent "Leaves on the Wind" comic series by Zack Whedon.

There were a few other cosmetic changes to the covers of both works and some interior diagrams.

My favorite is that Sygnus is the official name for Mr Universe's Moon. See page 291 of the Verse in Numbers.

Sygnus (pronounced Sickness) is a much better name than Cortex Relay Station Ring 2, Station 2E, A/2260(White Sun)r25m9.


The worst new feature is the document security for the pdf is set to content copying not allowed. That really interfered with cut-and-paste of the long name for Sygnus.

The Joss Whedon script for Serenity, where Wash lives, is Serenity-190pages.pdf at www.mediafire.com/folder/1uwh75oa407q8/Firefly

I love stuff like this but sometimes I wish things like cargo manifests and registration papers would be filled out showing What Serenity is hauling, who the captain is and so on. I could go through this thread and copy and paste all here as favorites but, here is a kind of answer to your question.

Not having any talent to create them myself I am relegated to admiring others work. None the less, it is pure enjoyment to me. Thanks..

Front:


Certificate of Registration
This a companion piece to the Certificate of Origin, called a Certificate of Registration. It's marks the difference between a carrier of exported goods and the actual producer/exporter of goods. Just a little more Alliance red tape.

This is a label I did for the upcoming film Browncoats: Independence War. Some of you will recognize the name from Outland, Terminator 2 and The Relic.

This is an art exhibition poster from the Core that is one of many designs created for an upcoming fan film project. Just one more piece of set dressing for crew quarters. This one gives me the opportunity to showcase some of my watercolor work and a chance to focus on the past and present whereabouts of Earth-That-Was antiquities.

It prints at 11 x 17 inches.

Inspired by MooCriket's thread about Propaganda Posters on the RPF, I threw this little number together. It's an Alliance propaganda poster from the early months of the Unification War, because nothing says 'Alliance' like a piece of propaganda. I see this one appear at shindigs more often than anything else I've done.

Is the label really Polydichloric euthymol? mol = molar or tooth.

Because Euthymol is a toothpaste https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euthymol Holy Molar!

Or is it Polydichloric euthimal? mal is bad in Latin. It's a bad drug.

Because euthimal is in wiki's fictional drugs

It is indeed an homage to the fictional drug used in other films. When researching I found it spelled some 4 different ways, but most commonly spelled with a 'y' and that's the way we chose to go with it. So toothpaste or not, it's still in homage to the previous mentions.
