They have no idea where it came from...

Now secret footage of what happened a few weeks earlier has been found:

This explains it all! Or... Well, at least sort of :wink:

Very good looking MOC. Like it jumped right out of the movie :classic:

Now we know where the phrase "mooning" originated from.

Don´t close your eyes till this picture have left your mind. Might burn some nasty images onto your eyeballs.

Thanks!

Yeah, I know. It actually creates more questions. (E.g. why are monkeys able to breathe when there is not atmosphere, etc.)

:grin:

Ha, I knew it, I knew it all along, of course - It was the monkeys.

Nice combination of 2001 theme and planet of apes - intended? :monkey::knight:

Planet of apes?  No, that is just accidentally.

I have a tendency to include monkeys in my MOCs :laugh:

The lights are standard TLG and the base plates are the "good old" space baseplates.

Ow, I didn't know TLG made those lights, nice. ^^ The baseplates almost looked Tan to me, that's why I thought they where new/re-issued ones.

Ok, I get where you're coming from.

To mimic how things look like on the moon I went for strong contrasts and bright lights (+ shadows). So the baseplates are reflecting the light, but they are still standard "grey". :sweet:

Very nice creation! It has a lot of fun, when you know the story from behind the scenes! :laugh:

Funny thing about the movie, we were on the moon then before we had landed on the moon.

 

Ah, you mean that the movie was made in 1968...

Thanks :laugh:   I probably should add some monkey-spacecraft to show how they got there.

(But they don't seem to need space suits anyway, so it is all probably done by magic)

Fine addition - thanks.

Only problem: now everybody sees the differences between my scene and the original :cry_sad:

:grin:
