Not exactly my genre but I thought these projects really capture the look of 1930s space pulp:

That is very neat! Just a little before my time, though.  My earliest memories of Space Pulp were of the Buster Crabbe 'Buck Rogers' and 'Flash Gordon' serials and the 'Rocky Jones, Space Ranger' TV series from 1954, starring Richard Crane.  Always loved the hardware, as silly as it seems nowadays.  I've even got the CD of paper models from Delta 7 Studios which contains several of the iconic ships, as well as a Raygun! Take a peek here.
