dinohunterpoa, the spaceship's interior is different from previous interiors I have done.  Normally, I build the interiors completely from scratch using JTT and Evergreen Plastics as the key building materials.  In this case the rooms and walls of the spaceship are manufacture made by JR Miniatures.  I was lucky to have picked them up several years ago when the rooms were still available.  It appears that today only wall section are still sold.  The hallway floors and the floor in the cargo hold are JTT Plastic.  I give a pretty full accounting of where the furnishing come from in the write up to the right of the gallery pictures.

THANKS! Looking forward to see more!  :-*

Thanks!

You've got some good stuff there, I especially like the Monolith buildings.
Your use of the Kenner ships is really fun too.  I wish I kept some of my old vehicles!

Holy smokes, you really go all-out.

The 'Sci-fi Bob Ross' is really funny, great little vignette. Likewise the crew trying to interview a space rogue!

Definitely requires a return visit to take it all in :)

a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

Wow, that is superb. A huge amount of work has gone into that.

Absolutely inspirational, not just for its conception and execution but for the amazing use of found parts and figures from a huge range of sources. Just spectacular.

Thanks to all for the generous comments... sincerely appreciated.  

Dr. Mathias, TV art classes with Bob Ross... I thought I was alone.

dinhunterpoa, other than my thread on the Future Wars' page that shows my work on this project as it went along (most pictures have been recovered), I'm afraid this is all there is.  I am now off on my next project which is a 28mm post apoc desert community... zombies and big bugs.

Mason, thank you.  Really appreciate the kind words... pleases me that you will view again.

axiom/Jon, earlier I failed to note how much I enjoyed your Rogue Trader posting and referenced it often.  More importantly my love of your Colony 87 figures is absolute.  I was so lucky to get them, and I appreciate very much how helpful you were in that process.

dinohunterpoa, thanks for the OMG about my post apoc idea.  It has actually progressed a good distance... more than 30 buildings finished (mostly Plasticville and K-Line with a couple from the first Cars Movie/Flo's V8 Cafe and the Radiator Springs Curio Shop) at this time, and I have painted more than 250 figures so far... a lot of zombies to go.

HiH do you manage to get time to all of this?!  :o

HiH = how in heck, obviously!  :D

EDIT: I would like you to have some time to gather some good friends and PLAY SOME GAMES on your AWESOME landscapes!  ;)
