sunday fantasy #401: Paul Van Denton (via conceptships)

ever since a new Thunderbirds children’s series was announced in February, I have been mulling over how a more mature Battlestar Galactica-esque gritty reboot could work. So far I’m juggling with space entrepreneurs, Mars colonisation, political and military corruption, ekranoplans, abandoned aircraft factories, ancient technologies - and deciding just how much to mess with the five iconic vehicles. I may bother you more with this later in the year..
