Looks fantastic !!! - even at close up
Yes, the Galileo lettering in the front and sides were done by me. This project was fun to do....especially the light sequences on the exterior and interiors. Thanks for the kind words.

Thank you,,,,,,It was fun working on this project. The 2nd film will be mostly flying this Huge bird at different locales. Many Beautiful flight scenes to come.
Wow. That looks like so much work. Working lights. And it flies?!
And you can remove the roof for shooting? Do you have a roof with and without a skylight? I was thinking that if you can remove the roof you may have put the skylight in for another reason. Same with the back window. Did you try to make a removable panel for the back before you went with the window?
How long did that take to build? I will look out for the video of flight testing. Thanks for posting. I really like the effect of the rear window and the skylight. Very nice work. Amazing really. Thanks for posting.

The skylight and rear window were intentionally made in this fashion by me, in order to execute multi-camera/Angle flight shots (better illustration of flight via both windows). This project took me 3 weeks to complete, it combines Elmers foam paper and lite balsa wood. I'll be concentrating on making the doors slide open a close soon. When we take this Ship to the local park for flight manuevers ....We always get stopped by bypassers that are amazed by it. Believe me the pictures don't do it any justice.....Up close, it looks even better. I just added (2) pictures of the Galileo banking left. More flight videos and pics soon. Thanks for the kind words.

You really should be commended!! While what the Doc and EMCE in general has done with Trek has been impressive, even THAT can not compete with your labor of love... Your efforts are definitely appreciated!!!
