Thunderbird 1 Hangar
Sofia Bue was a key model maker on all of these interiors due to her excellent model making and paint skills. Her ability to crawl into cramped parts of the sets came in useful too.
The original show is known for having used everyday household objects as detailing in their sets and vehicles. This technique was called scratch building. We made the stylistic choice to do the same with our sets.
In the original you could clearly see a lemon squeezer mounted to the wall just behind TB1
We did the same, but where our set is bigger we actually had to fabricate a larger replica of a squeezer.

David Duke is gluing extra Gack onto a model. We had a huge collection of random small objects we added as details. Names for these included: Nurnies, Greeblies, Goeties and Foefenjollies to name just a few.
