The Space Sentinels - M.O. Maintenance Operator

This 1977 cartoon started life as a show called The Young Sentinels and was renamed halfway through the series to The Space Sentinels. A total of 13 Episodes were made each 20 minutes in length.
M.O. was Sentinel 1's maintenance operator, Sentinel 1 being the ship and the computer inside it. I loved this show as a kid,and especially M.O. voiced by Lou Scheimer who also provided voices for the animated Star Trek and He-Man and the Masters of the Universe.

I made the model in Max and these renders were made in Vue Infinite.

Check out the link to the shows opening credits.
