Partially to celebrate the roll-out of VSS Enterprise, the first SpaceShipTwo class manned spacecraft, I’ve bunged up a mini gallery page with all the SpaceShipTwo/ VSS Enterprise /WhiteKnightTwo stuff.
It is here.
Enjoy.

I give you Bojemoi Boris’ Bargain Basement Boosters.
As it looks like the background ship’s shooting the FG, I’m gonna replace it with a bunch of fleeing merchant ships. Which I have to build, first.
Anyroad. If I eat my greens, and think pure thoughts, I might end up good at this 3D lark you know…
Fair warning, there’s one F-bomb and a gout of blood in this clip. Also, alcohol abuse and arrant silliness. The clip is therefore beneath the fold.

I found a toy Buck Rogers Starfighter in my local old-comics-and-toys shop a while back. This was a gimme at £15 (even if the pop-out wings don’t really anymore and the little plastic missiles were missing), so I’ve been bashing on giving the old girl a bit of a BSG-style makeover. There’s probably about six to eight hours of “kept” modelling in this so far. I haven’t really kept track of “chucked” modelling, but it’s probably only about 2 hours so far.
For those history buffs amongst us, this was actually Ralph McQuarry’s original design for the Colonial Viper in the 1970s Battlestar Galactica. So, in keeping with this more crunchy, gritty day and age, I imagine I’ll be punching reaction-control thruster exhausts into the pylons before too long. Hum. I think this thing’s Ficton Reactor must use a McQuarry Converter. Yeah, that sounds about right. 
Gotta keep it real, right?
Me make pretty.
That should do it. And I got some animated logo work signed off today, too. Yay!
An old mate of mine wrote a cracking novel about a chap who won the Nobel Literature prize when he was very young, and then didn’t write for ages. Shockingly for a book containing no guns, spaceships, aliens or even an anomaly, I really enjoyed it and promptly volunteered to do a cover.
This is where I am with it at the moment.
As it’s been a while since I’ve updated, have a freebie.
