Never the less, when the “Continuation” story was going to be made (and we are not referencing to the current film that is being written, but the story DeSanto first came [...]

Built from the Michael Miles Artistry 1:24 scale kit, this fantastic build was done by my friend Chris Dobbinson! From the final photos he did of it, another friend of mine, Robert Watson, did a masterful job placing it in the skies evading missiles!
