Manta Wing

June 27, 2013/ Tommy

This MOC evokes retro future romanticism, and it's beautiful. It feels like something you'd see in the 1940's "Things to come" news reels. Ages ago I worked on a film called Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, and this craft would be right at home in it. Nice compositing as well, great images. All that and it looks pretty swooshable too.
