Scratch built Nostromo and refinery

[Dymerski]

She is done. The refinery and Nostromo from Alien. All scratch built. No 3d printing. She is 15x18x13 inches high. The Nostromo is 3.5 inches and scratch built. No model kits were harmed in making her, just my spare kit box and thousands of tiny cut plastic. She is a combination of the original pre-Ridley Scott hatchet job and the final version. A lot of the detail was made up. Reference was poor. I added some colored graphics throughout.

What he said I had to read those measurements twice to make sure in was in inches and not feet

No 3D Printing? No virgin model kit sacrifice (only spare parts box salvage)? Beautiful outer space, scratch built chemical plant created following Nostromo concept. Detail is realistic and well thought out considering the small scale for a large subject.

JeffBond looks beautiful how big is it?

I think about 20” long. The Nostromo is the Konami replica—major kudos to Dymerski for his scratchbuilt Nostromo!
