Something else I am working on…the launch site of the Gemini 12(Jupiter 2) From the Original Lost in Space. The ship is the same one seen in my videos and 9.6" In diameter. It’s a one off kit and not available. The launch pad and gantries are 3d printed based on the Actual FOX blueprints. There is a lot more work to be done(Tank treads for under the support towers, Lights, ETC. However, here is an in progress shot of what I am going for.
Thanks!
Love It Mark! Keep us posted on your progress!
Impeccable as always!
Mark, how tall will the launch towers be?
When I add the wheels and treads, the three red towers will be 12" in height.
Oh, dear! The kit is not available! Oh dear, OH DEAR!!!
My LOST IN SPACE Jupiter 2(Gemini 12) Launch site Diorama.
The ship is 9.6" Diameter and made from scans of the original 4’ Gemini 12 Filming miniature. I received it as a kit because of my involvement with the real miniatures restoration.
It is NOT an available kit. Sorry.
The Launch Pad, three towers were made from the Fox blueprints by Bobovich Designs and printed out for me by Anthony Sforza.
The print was amazingly crisp. I did however, scratch build the tank treads and railings.
The model can be seen in action in my various YOUTUBE VIDEOS.
I am very pleased with the effect. Additional lighting will be added at a later time!
Thanks!
Switch to a black and white photo and it could look like it came right out of the TV series!
Better than the original!
That is so cool sir! Thanks!!!
Really nice work! I have the gantry that will fit the 12” J2. It’s been on my shelf, in fact it’s been sitting there for about 17 yrs now. I’d grab a 12” J-2 but the prices commanded for it are nuts.
What do you consider ‘nuts’? I’ve got one available. FYI - it includes all the bells and whistles (resin aftermarket, lighting kit, etc). Contact me offline if your’re interested.
