Here is something fun (prepping the footage/ideas for the screens on the blimp - decided to do a dry run with this) - I have made a video screen play all of the footage from the ads in Blade Runner. I added a soundtrack using a Vangelis song, and the Japanese song which was also in the film.... I will add this to the side of a building model I plan to scratch build, so it looks like it is from Blade Runner. It will be a nice base for a Spinner model!!

YouTube - Blade Runner Screen Test

Where did you get the source footage of the ads? Is it on the four or five disc DVD set?

Can't wait to see this finished!

I got the blimp ad from a friend - it wasn't on the discs.

Getting closer...

Yeah get with it, Jason! We're tired of you slacking off around here (scampers behind a pile of unfinished models in a cloud of loose plastic bits and old decal sheets)

[moffeaton]

Re: 1/2 studio scale Offworld Blimp - MOVING AHEAD!

A builders kit - lotta scratch building, but you get a massive leg up with a parts set....

Re: 1/2 studio scale Offworld Blimp - MOVING AHEAD!

Well, you can get the shells now if you'd like. PM me and I'll give you the info - I'm not going to "package" a set of parts - but I'm happy to let others buy what I generate as I build this... so not a kit, exactly, but more of a super leg up for builders!
