Great Man! Great colour way too. Ron Turner, illustrator of the 50s>70s also inspired me.I’ve a recent attraction to AXE shower gels for this very reason...Lol Let’s see if I can knockout some interplanetary freighters soon.
Chris Foss and Peter Elson are two of my favourite Sci Fi artists , thier space craft and ships always look impressive and striking , an they weren't scared of using color to emphasise the scale of these magnificent craft . Nice job and a good tribute 👏 👍
Looks super cool love the retro feel. I would prefer to see you actually building it though instead of telling us what your going to do then showing it done. Just my opinion.
Yeah, those two spots immediately drew my attention and screamed bottles. If you had added grilles (think ST deflector dishes) or domed areas (ST bussard collectors) it would really sell the idea they are outboard engines.
Yes also Stainless Steel Rat covers were quite nice- couple editions in particular; 1980 or so. Astronaut falling thru sky and helmeted gun-slinger concepts.
Are you saying coach stripes? Where can I get some of those plastic strips?

I wish your videos were longer. A good 10-15 minutes of going through the process.
That looks great. I love Chris Foss’ style. I’m inspired to take out my boxes of models from the 80s and do some videos!
Looks fantastic. In the unpainted stage I thought it looked boring but you nailed it with the paintjob.

Peter Elson polychromy! GORGEOUS!!! Did you paint the little "PE" somewhere on it?!?!?
This video has inspired me to make my own spacecraft.
Nice work! The color really gives it good character.
It reminds me of the ship from Land of the Giants. 👍

That’s lovely, love Elsons Style
Very nicely realized.
When I was 12 I started to like sci fi because of the paintings of Christophe Foss and Peter Elson ! Thanks ;-)
Awesome
I think if you did something with the ends of the two thrusters you could remove entirely the impression they are bottles

Excellent mate :D
Very nice work !
Appreciate the color scheme, and the subtle weathering. Different from most I have seen!
Fantastic work! It looks like good and the detail adds a lot of interest to it. The color scheme is great too. Thanks for sharing this.
Was there a series of books in the 70's/80's with colour images? Love your stuff mate it's ace
😉👌

Sorry, but that still just looks like 3 plastic bottles glued together. This has to be a joke right…?
