Cozmic Scales Starfleet Airtram
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
This video features the 2nd of my two models from Cozmic Scale Models, the 1/72 Starfleet Headquarters Airtram. The video begins with a brief look at the kit followed by the assembly which includes adding lights. I continue on with the building of the display base and diorama which includes 3D printed pieces for making the track and side wall. The diorama is also detailed with figures that were also 3D printed. The video concludes with a final review of the project.

Figures.....I drew from 2 sets. One is a link to the file containing over 200 figures. Many of the women figures were too dressy or too casual. So I also drew from a much smaller set of 7.

Excellent as always. That shuttle always reminded me of similar designs, like Ark II, The LandMaster from Damnation Alley, Supertain, and so many early 70's sci fi car designs.

Hi Oggie, I love your channel and the wonderful builds you share of your differnt Sci Fi model projects! After seeing your build of the Cozmic Scales Starfleet Airtram, I had to order one for myself which I just did this morning. The size and detail are perfect. And your build with the Evans Designs and Brickworks lighting is great. Along with your great tutorial on the foam core base. And the great added figures, including your confused transported self on the cell phone. A nice Alfred Hitchcock-like touch! Please have a great day and thanks again for your wonderful channel.

If you want to shift light color from warm to cool, you might want to pick up some "CTB" theatrical gel. You can get it in a variety of densities depending on how much color shift you want. (CTB stands for "color temperature blue".) To shift from cool to warm, you commonly want "CTO" (color temperature orange) gels. These get used by photographers regularly, specifically to modify the color temperature of lights.

Oh hey...thanks for reminding me to place the link about the wire cutter. I will see if I can take to wonderfest. I have an idea on how to pack it. As for the Enterprise uniform, I purchased it from an Ebay seller who has become quite the hit with the Trek Cosplay community. I'll place the link to that as well. Thanks for your kind compliments as always.
Love it, great work! But I think you may have Admiral Kirk's uniform wrong. Although it does look greenish in your reference photo, I think you'll find if you do more image searches, that his uniform is white and dark grey. The greenish tint is probably an illusion, maybe a product of lighting and film distortion over time or something.

Hi Dyson...thanks so much. Regarding Kirk's uniform, The Making of Star Trek the Motion Picture notes the uniform was actually a color called Loden Green. No doubt it's one of those colors that can appear different as lighting conditions change. Thanks for watching
