My TOS shuttlecraft, again...

[Warped9]

Got to talking about the TOS shuttlecraft elsewhere and while looking at my 3D model pics I thought I'd share them here again.

For those not familiar with this I resized the exterior to about 28ft. long and tightened up the interior some fit everything into an integrated whole. That's why the shuttlecraft looks bigger on the flight deck than it did on the show. Note, too, the flight deck shown here is designed to fit into a 947ft. ship as Matt Jefferies intended.

The shuttlecraft mockup was initially supposed to have exterior lighting on the bow as well as within the nacelle caps, but they passed on that due to cost. Here I've added the intended lighting to the exterior.

Looks fantastic! Looks how it oughta.

My only quibble is that that "window glass" of the future (transparent aluminum?) should not be reflective in a way that obstructs the vision of personnel who are engaged in hangar deck duties. That's small potatoes, so hat off for your efforts.

I love how the underdeck work area looks like something they could have built in an alternate 1969 timeline if Gene had found an extra $20,000 under one of his couch coushins before the start of season four. Marvelously well done, sir!
