Gingerbreed - Spaceship - Work in Progress

IMAGE UPDATE
A bit of an update to show some of the new detail that I've added to this section.



I mentioned earlier in the week that I'd post some stills of the film project I'm working on for the guys in New York.
This is the main engine section of the starring spaceship for the SF Comedy film Gingerbreed currently being made by Jonathan Dorfman and Szymon Weglarski.

Plot summary:
In this action-packed throwback to the Cold War era, a team of astronauts and cosmonauts join forces to investigate a loss in communications from a colony on Jupiter's moon Europa. With traitors in their midst and their numbers dwindling, the crew must discover what killed the colonists before they are next.

There's still a lot more work to do on this ship, and although I won't be able to post any renders of the whole ship yet, Jon has said I can post sections and detail. Having built the 'HMS Camden Lock' for UK's SF Comedy show Hyperdrive it's weird building another main ship for another SF Comedy project,for Hyperdrive I built a British ship, for this project I'm building a Russian Ship. I can't reveal the name of this craft yet though.

Check out the Gingerbreed Blog here for some still of the Live Action shoot http://gingerbreed.blogspot.com/

Spacecraft - Work in progress

This is the front section of another craft I've started recently for the SF production that Emmett is on with in Germany, they've had a recent set back in production as they're having to find new studio space to build their sets. This model has been put on hold for the moment while I work on the SF project for the guys over in New York.
I should be able to post some renders of the new project I'm working on later in the week,I won't be able to post pics of the whole ship but they're going to allow me to post detailed area's.

Blog updates

Oh well I've been 40 for nearly a week now and I'd like to thank all my posters on this and my other Blog for their Birthday Greetings !
I'm about to start a new project which I'll be able to post about sometime in a week or so, it's work on a live action movie that's in production in New York, and yes it is Sci-Fi.
Other than that I'll be trying to post some other new stuff over the weekend so keep coming back. Cheers !!!
