Hello everyone, I recently built Gary Pilsworth's 20 million miles to Earth rocket at smaller than pdf size and I used copper paper for details. The grey paper I used is thicker than normal card stock, so it krinkled a little on the small parts. Also I had some printed sheets of my Icarus burnt and unburnt that I had to test build. So im sharing them here, thank you.
thanks Zathros! Except for some small details, finished this off. slide out back hatch on sky 1 for the battery and switch, magnets join sky and diver. Threw in some lights just to see. Used gold paper, and it's 1/2 size. Next time doing Gary's at full size and I changed the color to a brassy kind of brown.
I think I posted this before but this was my test drawing on the model. I have a much better one I am looking for to build.
This ship reminds me of a Klingon Ship meets the George Pal version of the "War of the Worlds" ship. Now I wonder what a fusion of a Klingon with a martian would look like.... Sky Seeker :tank:
I kind of picture this alternate universe retro starships with just a 4-6 man crew and the Klingon kind of a Ming the merciless type of character.
It looks like Captain Future's Comet! source: http://blu-ray-rezensionen.net/wp-c...uture-Komplettbox-Blu-ray-Review-Szene-14.jpg
My cat knocked over my RC 1701 model normal size and the soldering broke on one nacelle so I threw this together. then STC [star trek continues] had part one of their final episode with a Romulan bird of prey. I have pestered them for that for over a year, its nice to see them do one! and a clean up of the original, cant confirm what they lit it up for the test as, but I have heard it was light blue domes with amber ports. most people go with green domes and white ports.
Ming-ons is perfect! one of Spock's mental conceptions changing a splintered timeline I would imagine the Retroverse being.
Working on these, the Romulan, and RC's bridge. just thought I would post what I going on.[ those are my cat's dinosaurs by the way, he loves them!]
Thanks! I'm just going with running lights and impulse and sensors. I might do the nacelles but I just don't know if I will.
