RESIN ZERO X MEV

 Here's another look at the small resin MEV which was sold by the Gerry Anderson store a few years ago.

I went for the spookier Century 21 Mars surface look rather than what we now know it really looks like!

  1. Nice photos. I do like the spooky, grey, Mars.

    1. Thanks Kev. I suppose a 'red' Mars would just look like some desert on Earth, whereas an imagined 'grey' Mars does look more alien.

  2. Nice work, Scoop! I'm working on a similar project myself and yes, the weird Moon-like Mars is much spookier than a red desert!

    1. Thanks Lewis. I'm intrigued and wondering what your new project is going to be!

  3. Good gosh, that is a beautiful model, and a beautiful setting too! It reminds me of the first time I saw Thunderbirds Are Go! in a theater in the U.S., circa 1969 - what an experience!

    1. It's a nice model, Zigg, if just a little small for my liking. Oddly enough, although I managed to see the Dalek fims, I didn't catch Thunderbirds are go at the cinema.

    2. I would have loved to have seen it on the big screen. I did get to see Thunderbird 6 and can still remember seeing what seemed to be a massive Thunderbird 2 emerging from underneath the cliff house.

  4. The spookier Mars terrain works really well for the MEV model. Nice to see this original interpretation of Mars, Scoop.

    1. Yeah, I like that harsh, friendless alien planet look, even though it proved to be unlike what was eventually seen when Viking 1 landed on the Martian surface in 1976, Thankfully, it didn't record any images of Rock Snakes - as far as we know! ; D
