This looks to me like it should have been the main ship in a 70's or 80's movie, like Silent Running or The Black Hole. Apart from its length, the thing that I like is the red & black checked panel, in the middle. It stands out on the ship and looks like it is very important for some job. I like the engines, with the stablisers (or whatever the black & yellow things are). This also most definitely a spaceship, with no landing gear and that big radar underneath. There are so many opportunities to create tales and play with this creation. Excellent. Where did the name come from? Google and my brain think Derek Jarman (unlikely!).
Correct with your references! This is a homage to Derek Jarman; pure chance meant I was watching a Smiths DVD while making the final sections of the ship, and I thought why not name the ship after Jarman. A bit of textual disguise, and there you have it. In terms of direct reference, it was the Cygnus from the Black Hole I was thinking of when making this. |

Brilliance in Blue! :)
Somewhere back in childhood I decided thanks to Lego all spaceships worth their salt should be blue, grey with yellow and black stripes.

Super cool work! Love it, it looks great, especially with the cool background :)
The backgrounds were supposed to be a little Black Hole too. |

Wow David, you have outdone yourself. I think this is one of my favorites that you have posted. The classic look still captures interest and awe not because it is classic but because of the way you have composed it. I really enjoy all the details, textures, and colors you use to create mass and points of interest to draw the eye. I agree with MortalSwordsman that this is one of those MOCs that you need to keep coming back to really get it all. Well done.
The composition of his thing was tough. Built in 4 sections, merging them together as a whole was a real pain. One evening build earlier this week nearly drove me insane. |

Its amazing what you can do with nearly only old pieces.
Old pieces force the creative spirit to the fore. |

Nice work, David! This one looks like it may be your biggest yet. I like all the elements that you used here. It has so many sections. I also like how you went with the long look, rather than the wide. Some real bold use of color. I would be afraid to use so many different colors in one of my builds, but you pulled it off well. This has a very distinctive look, like this and the Rhesus could be a part of the same fleet. Stunning! Well done, sir.
The long look is a part homage to the Cygnus fom the film The Black Hole (my all time favourite movie space ship). I also wanted to break the 100 stud long marker.

Holy moly this is amazing, you have excelled yourself Mr Alexander-Smith. Fantastic part usage throughout and a brilliant overall shape/design. This is one of those mocs that you need to take in with several visits. I'll be back
Thanks. You can tell I've been on leave this week ;). I have more photos to add but got fed up of photo editing for the moment. |
