JUPITER-2 DIORAMA #08 (SIMON MERCS) |
Updated: June 30, 2004
"This is my latest version of the Polar Lights
Jupiter-2 Spacecraft. The 12 inch diameter prop
comes with fully lit upper Dome, Fusion Core,
Internal Control Panels, Console Lighting,
Astrogator Lighting, Cabin Lighting, Stasis Tube
Lighting, and all are controlled by 2 internal
switches and a 9 Volt and 2 AA power supply.
The electronics are top quality and will last
many years. The power drain is minimal so batteries
will last a long time. The interior is hand
painted in very close detail, using reference
material of the real prop as a guide, and the
exterior is Airbrushed in the correct Hull color.
No weathering on this one, showroom clean. This is
a stunning piece in dim lighting but is fully
visible in full light. This version has the front
seats removed to afford a better view of the
interior. I use after-market seats that are
accurate and remove the very bad seats Polar
Lights uses.
If you would like to see more great pictures of
this unique prop, just click on the link to
"The Kit Factory" that Uncle Odie has graciously
provided."
