Space Shuttle - Discovery "Photos"
« on: May 26, 2011, 10:19:11 »
 :wave: Hello,

Last night we send a communication satellite with a help of Space Shuttle of NASA. You can see below some photos of this last expedition... or better, I must say...

Years ago I had a idea to build this "Space Shuttel", now my dream is a reality and I´m happy to show you a result of my imagination. I hope you like. Space and aeronautic are two themes I realy like :icon_biggrin:

And of course... ejem... greetings from Houston :lol: ,
TJ

I love this custom and the photoshop job. It's really breathtaking. One of the most harmonious themes I've seen build with playmo.

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

Wonderful, the shuttle as well as the pics!!  :love: :)9

At last someone making a realistic modern high-end Playmo-aircraft or spaceplane!!

Since you too are into aeronautics & space, now I want to see next Playmo-versions of the Lockheed SR-71A "Blackbird", the Rockwell XB-70 "Valkyrie", the "Concorde", the Lockheed X-33 "Venture Star", the Northrop YF-23A "Black Widow II", the ... !  :-[  :-[

Resistance is futile, you will be boarded!
