A final look at some of the photos from last Sunday’s Smallspace
event.
As I said in my
first post, Andy Preston’s Refit Enterprise was the star of the
show for me. His attention to detail, and his meticulous pearlescent
paint job was second to none.
Andy tells me it took around 4 months on and off, to carefully complete the painting process.
Some more shots of
Richard Ashton’s highly detailed scratch-built models.
A couple of photos
from the Motion Picture Miniatures display, showing castings of the
27” Batwing as seen in Tim Burton’s, Batman.
A Klingon Vor’cha
battle cruiser from Star Trek: The Next Generation. When completed
this will be displayed at the National Film and Sc-Fi Museum at
Milton Keynes.
Two 1:72 scale
dioramas on display at the Cozmic Scale Modals stall. One showing a
scene from ‘V’, and another showing a Battlestar Galactica Viper
Hangar.
Another couple of
photos showing Kevin D’s models, and a photo of Kevin and Myself by
his display (photo taken by Mike Tucker)
A few candid shots
of some of the other friends I meet up with.
Prolific modeller David
Sisson and his partner, Alison Thorne always put on a great model
display. This year was no exception.
Space:1999 expert and collector ,
Simon Rhodes, who displayed some of his original Mike Noble ‘Star
Fleet’ artwork, seen here sat with trader, transport manager, and
all round good guy, Tony Freeman and Alison Thorne.
In the foreground,
Tony Freeman, with fellow film fan and prop collector, Simon
Greetham chatting with David Sisson.
Ever wondered what’s
inside a Dalek casing. Here’s all the complicated remote control
gubbins inside Iain McDonald’s grey Dalek.
Finally, some photos
I’ll file under miscellaneous.
A 1: 3 scale ‘Power
of the Daleks’ Dalek model in it’s own excellent diorama.
A resin model
rocket, built by Andrew Prentis, based on designs seen in the Dan
Dare inspired ‘Ministry of Space’ graphic novel.
A model of a Borg in
it’s alcove. Unfortunately, I don’t who made this model, but it
looked great and included a green flickering lighting effect.
Coming soon: The next adventure will be at Cromford Mills Comic Con
