Woodsy,
Here's a few shots I did the last day or so on the new diorama base.
I went into The Cave and pulled the easiest spaceship I could reach (Masuya's Moon Rocket) and snapped a few pics (more than a few actually - these are just the ones I like best).
The very first photo I call "NASA's secret dark side of the moon launch post Apollo 17".
The last photo is more-or-less to show the surface texture, but it works well as a spaceship landing.
The stars are all Photoshopped in vs. me inserting a star field photo from the internet.
Hope you Enjoy!
From Vegas Base

These are great - that Lunar/Alien Planet base really looks good, and makes a wonderful back drop for the photos.
ReplyDeleteMany Thanx Paul! This base is a winner for sure!
DeleteLovely photos Ed, especially the first one which has the air of lunar solitude under the vastness of space.
ReplyDeleteThanx Arto! When I look at that photo it gives off some spooky, lonely vibes!
DeleteThat moon base is much bigger than I thought! Lovely work!
ReplyDeleteThanx Lewis! What I had in mind before starting the project was something that would accommodate at least four Tri-ang Moon Base HQ complexes.
DeleteEd - that looks great - beautifully executed! Looking forward to seeing a wide range of appropriate vehicles photographed there. Tony P
ReplyDeleteMany Thanx Tony! While made with smaller toys in mind, even some of my larger toys should work well with it.
DeleteThird shot down is a doozy Ed! Chesley Bonestell would be proud! Bill
ReplyDeleteMany Thanx Bill! Hi praise indeed, especially as Bonestall is one of my favorite space artists.
DeleteTerrific photos - they almost look like production stills from a 1960s-era Sci-Fi flick! SFZ
ReplyDeleteMany Thanks! They were among my inspiration for the design.
DeleteNice Space Age era evoking shots there Ed.
ReplyDeleteThank you! The Space Age with a wee bit of Cold War mystery thrown in for good measure.
DeleteWell done Ed. Let the moon fun begin!
ReplyDeleteOh yes - the fun has already begun! :-)
