Great picks everybody! Makes me want to make some popcorn and watch some movies. Not what I'd call beautiful but the Nostromo has always impressed me. I also liked the Event Horizon.

Yes, I do like the cygnus, but the super star destroyer from esb and rotj was awsome sat the smithsonian.

I'd have to agree with the Cygnus. Beautiful ship.

But the Mothership from Close Encounters is quite beautiful, too.

I think lots of lights or internal lighting have a lot to do with a ship being beautiful.

Do TV Shows count? If so, the Original Enterprise.

That would make a great scene! With his watering can and the light modules lit. Cool idea Wink [;)]

I also thought it would be nice to just make one dome from the ship, with model railroad foliage and a tiny Duey.

Studio Models.

I was just wondering what your pick would be for most beautiful studio model from a sci-fi movie. Mine would have to be the victorian inspired Cygnus from "The Black Hole". The slow panning passes of this model took my breath away when I saw this movie at the theater! Shock [:O]
