The modeller (DoroubouHige) said that he fell in love with Kobayashi Makoto's sketch of Tatiana's damaged vanship from the last episode of Fam, and so decided to build the model in accordance with that drawing as far as possible. He did an amazing job, and even made a diorama of sorts with a mechanic towing the busted vanship and Fam and Gisey following along in their Vespa, all while floating above the Turan Exile. And not only that, but the models actually light up! How incredible is that! You can even control how the Exile lights up, as he demonstrates in the video.
Pictures!
A picture of the full ensemble.
Comparison with the sketch!
Looking a little queasy there, Gisey...
...But not as bad as Tatiana and Alis, who appear to be completely unconscious.
*glows*
"I'm just sitting here coolly."
And lastly, the beautifully-made and -lit Turan Exile!
You can see more pictures over at his blog; there are also fairly detailed records of how he assemble the models, for those who are interested in building!
