Joe Schmidt
Holland, Ohio
After tearing apart and rebuilding a 1975 release of Aurora’s 1/160 scale Orion Clipper from 2001: A Space Odyssey and adding parts to enhance detail, Joe needed a better way to display it. So, he converted a clock with scratchbuilt details to resemble the dock of the orbital space station seen in the movie to serve as a stand. He painted the spaceliner and base with Vallejo acrylics over Krylon primer.
