    Love the 2001 crossover stuff. I have worked on and crewed CH-47 Chinooks for 38 years. This would be a great replacement. Replace the cargo hooks with tractor beams. 👍👍

    I don't know what to say!! This is next level work, far better that television or movie quality. I love Steve unloading his Mustang, and using AMC Javelin font was a stroke of genius. Sorry, for sounding so much like a fanboy, but you blew me away with this one. Can't wait to see you next project.

    Another brilliant and inspiring Star Trek Star fleet shuttlecraft design and build, Bill.
    The Javelin ( is the logo based on the AMC Javelin logotype? ), is, hands down, my all time favorite Star Trek based shuttlecraft design!
    Maybe Matt Jefferies, in the day, could have gotten to build this design, instead, as it has less of a curvature at the bow of the craft.
    I love your shuttlecraft design so much, I wiish someone would be a full size version of this with a complete “working” interior.
    This is a beautiful shuttle design inside and out, Bill!
    A real piece of beautiful, yet functional ( fictional ) industrial design !
    You need to make available and sell larger paper plans ( blueprints ) of all of your finisshed model designs, Bill.
    I do not know if I will/can ever afford to have a model built be you, but I can, definitely, afford to purchase a set of decent sized, quality paper set of your original starship design model plans, for sure!

    "Absolutely no point in entering the Wonderfest 2024 model comp now....."!!!!!! Lol
    Hi Bill - I'd heard your name a few times on other scifi channels but this is the first video of yours I've seen - you truly are a master of the craft! Your also no slouch when it comes to 3D modelling which begs the question why the styrene parts to the build?!!
    Anyway, excellent work but only one suggestion - how about using swimsuit models for your standees - would help the audience concentrate on the scale comparison- honest!!!!

    • @TychoYard
      @TychoYard  Před 11 měsíci +1

      You do not compete against each other at WonderFest and I will not be entering any future contests. Javelin was built in 2018 and does include some 3D modeled and printed parts - impulse grille and nacelle end caps. This was a design I created by hand and I wanted to craft by hand. The shape is complicated and even today would beyond my skillset as a 3D modeler.

  • @johnkenerson71
    @johnkenerson71 Před 11 měsíci

    Beautiful concept and model. The only thing I would have done differently is put the head and galley in the back of the cabin. Just to avoid odors common with food prep and evacuation.
