[Jaitea]

This is awesome, great to see you back on this Stinson

For the R2,...theres Forbidden Planet,....but also a wee bit of Dr Who??

Like the destroyer...I think some kind of funky form is missing from the top...but not to worry, you'll have a sphere at the bottom that will complete the look

I love this thread. Fleshed out, that would be a great kit line. I think the hull depth needs to be a bit deeper for the star destroyer, though, more closely matching the fore to aft incline.

Wow, this ideas and designs are very creative and well done, and very inspiring as well

 

[DaddyfromNaboo]

Raymond Loewy would have had a lot of fun with the star wars designs, I guess

Love the Streamline look of the 30's and 50's! You nailed it and if I had enough funds, I would do a short with just those kind of designs.

Hi Steve

This is what sprang to my mind on seeing your Falcon

Very clever work mate! Super nice!

I could see a Gonk droid looking the part in this with typical 1950's robot spinning hoop antennas on the top...

Steve, I love the idea! when designing the blasters, I strongly recommend this as a starting point, it was made by "the DOCTOR" here on RPF and IMHO is hands down the retro ray gun I have ever seen.

Besides, there has been steampunk star wars, Victorian star wars, samurai star wars. We are way past overdue for some late Art Deco/ 1950s retro/ borderline Bauhaus style star wars. Bring on the chrome....

This is a great idea. I'm not a Star Wars fan (I know, don't burn me at the stake.) but I am a huge Atomic Age fan. This could even turn me into a Star Wars fan. Haha. Looking forward to more.

The two interior shots of the Falcon look very film noir! trench coats would not look out of place!

Just messing around today, putting this together to maybe hang on my wall. Ordered myself a T-shirt anyway.
