Armor-dillo, son of "TARKUS"

Modeling Subjects Science Fiction

I wanted a change of pace from cars, so I had a flashback of a 1971 Emerson, Lake, and Palmer TARKUS album cover. I used this as an inspiration. This was totally scratch built using balsa, plastic, aluminum sheet stock, card stock, leather, paper, a couple hundred rivits, some other odds and ends, and some mushrooms.[;)] Cover your ears!

Very cool! And out of the ordinary.

I like it! That’s one armadillo that doesn’t need to worry about crossing the highway safely! Very nice job :slight_smile:

Way cool subject. Now let’s see someone do the flying spaceship from the YES album covers.

Or the “Guitar Spaceship Cities” on Boston’s album covers.
