A productive day. Completed a first draft of the Powder Mage overview and got some excellent feedback from author Brian McClellan. Will do another pass, get it out and, after that, it’ll be smooooooth sailing!
There is nothing sadder than bad barbecue.
Well, maybe Grave of the Fireflies.— Joseph Mallozzi (@BaronDestructo) January 25, 2021
I have come to the conclusion that there are only two places for good barbecue in Toronto – Barque BBQ and Big Crow. That’s it. On the other hand, this city appears to have entered the golden age of fried chicken sandwiches. Speaking of which…
What do you say to the fried chicken rice burger? Yes/No?

Today’s treasure trove of concept art is from SG-1’s fourth episode: “The Broca Divide”…
Quite the stash, no?
There are so many great concept art books for so many sci-fi series. It would be great to see an “Art of Stargate” book
I find it interesting that you have concept art from before you even joined the show. What, did you raid the archives while you were working there?
Wow! The concept artwork is fantastic. I agree with Mark Bouska, an “Art of Stargate” tv series/franchise book would be great. I’d like to see the artistic conceptual progress of each show.
I’d try that sandwich.
Love the artwork!
I have a baking question for you. If I buy one of those scales to weigh ingredients, do you think it will convert measurements for British Recipes? This one looks so good and I’d love to try baking it. It looks easy too: https://www.pbs.org/food/recipes/lemon-poppy-seed-drizzle-cake/
Some of these have conversions already but some don’t. Here’s another recipe featured that was raved on: https://www.pbs.org/food/recipes/grapefruit-sandwich-cake/
Quite the stash, indeed! Thank you SO, SO MUCH for taking the time to share the concept art with us. It always fascinates me to compare concept to production. It’s one of my favorite treats that you occasionally post. I thought Broca Divide was both visually appealing and challenging for the lead players as far as acting was concerned. I still enjoy watching this episode.
Sorry about the BBQ situation. I live in TN, so great BBQ is everywhere. The smell of mesquite, hickory, exotic woods…. You name the meat or veggie and you can easily find it being smoked here. YUM! Now I want some!
Rice buns? Depends on seasoning and texture. Why not try it? Rice can be delicious and it is a culinary staple the world over. McD’s regular white flour buns are so ho hum that almost anything would be an improvement.
Thanks again for the fun post!!!
The art reminds me of the virtual tour I recently took of ancient Babylon.

Thanks for sharing the Stargate concept art — terrific stuff.
I would try that sandwich — rice bun sounds good to me.
