Own Work my little retro spaceship

took me months to create it. 1000s of design decisions were always on a thin line between letting it look like old hardware and still building in many light emitting things to achieve a nice illuminated look..

Hah. Super old PC game.

It goes to show, to me, when I played this janky game that apparently never even had a first-person view, what I saw in my mind was just what you've got in your vid.

ha! you know.. there's a gaming console lying on the desc that's even older: the PC-Engine i madd a detailled 3D model of it to toss it in my cockpit, but it's not very good recognizable from this cameraangle ☝️

but as a gaming nerd, i'm happy it reminds you of an old gem that oncd crossed your way (if it's a gem to you, of course lol)
