Is the Crimson Skies fad coming back? If the Red Zephyr by Jonhall18 is the start of the comeback, sign me up.
This plane has a great feel of bulk in all the right places. I like the airfoil shape of the wings, and the bubble up at the front of the fuselage adds a great touch of the fantastic.
Awesome! Looks like a prop version of the Pejitei gunship from Miyazaki’s _Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind_.
Those white stripes are striking. It’s a fabuless model but that one detail really makes the piece pop. I’m also stunned by that cool landing gear, where did that come from? Bionicle?
Yes, Bionicle. Those pieces are weapons from the minifig scale Bionicle line.
Just because it’s red doesn’t mean it is Crimson Skies. Some sky-fi occurs independent of (and even ignorant of) video games.
Love this, by the way.
Haha, red means Crimson Skies. Since I posted this MOC, the builder has confirmed that Crimson Skies was an inspiration. Looks like I win this round.
^ Win? A lucky guess.
My attempt at humor has failed. I’m not actually keeping score.
God, that’s beautiful.
