The old-timey-ness grows on me the more I look at this model. It looks like something that I would have loved back in 1979 (when i was 10 years old). Very nicely done!

Readers younger than us may not understand the design elements. If so, I’d suggest they look at some TV shows from that era: Battle of the Planets, Space: 1999, Battlestar Galactica, Buck Rogers, and etc. And don’t forget shows that were in re-runs like the Star Trek (the original series) and Lost in Space.

Many thanks, Jeffrey!

I was definitely going for a vibe similar the shows you listed! I was (and still am) a big fan of all of them. Glad you like the model and thanks especially for commenting!
