I don't think I ever saw that show, but that's a cool little ship

Thanks,

My 16" Land of the Giants Spindrift.
Posted by Jim Kirk on Tuesday, July 11, 2023 9:14 AM
After spending a lot of time making someone else's, I felt like taking some pictures of my personal 16” SPINDRIFT from Land of the Giants.
Land of the Giants expert, Mark Joseph Dorais used files cast from the original HERO filming miniature. This 16"model was hollow cast with no interior. I fabricated a mock cockpit and did all the lighting.
The model was totally airbrushed using Tamiya and Vallejo Paints. I elected to weather the build (I am personally not a fan of the "new" car look).
It has all the flaws of the miniature, which I appreciate. A model of a model. Again, which I prefer. After all, it wasn't a real spaceship.(sorry).
