Well, I got kind of carried away with the Art Deco business: my last ship had a "splash", this ship goes (at least in my mind) all the way... I'm done with this fad though, as I'm out of those little rounded corner pieces.

I think I should set some expectations: it's nominally an "executive cruiser" for lack of a better term, but in this case I envisioned more of a space private jet, and I think I defined the size and accommodations accordingly. Then again, I've only ridden in a small timeshare once, so your mileage may vary.



That being said, the design language is much more bus/railcar as that's where much more of the Art Deco I've seen manifests itself.





The roof and rear fins have a smattering of SNOT, but most of the construction is conventional studs-on-top. There is also a full interior in a hybrid plane/train sort of style (thank you Santa Fe car set). I would say my favorite interior thing is the doubly angled control panel on the flight deck.



And the full Brickshelf gallery as well.

Yeah, I definitely get a Streamliner/Futurliner feel to it! It actually kind of looks like a 1950's diner with engines ;-)

Nice Awesome. Is that plate supposed to be a futuristic iPod or similar device?

Love it! IT definitely has the feel of a private jet!

Funny story actually: I pulled that little tablet out of an older MoC thinking the same thing... but now that I think about it, the older MoC was built before the iPad came out, so clearly I predicted the future pretty well there XD

This is a really nice dieselpunk spaceship.  It definitely captures the 1940's look quite well with a good color scheme and well-planned interior.

Nice work

The interior is well planned
