Awesome.

The Sleeper Service from Iain M Banks's Excession is more than twice as long as the whole chart. 90km long by 60km wide by 20km high,

Not there.

The Zeppelin space ships and Tank like ones from "Iron Sky" are nowhere to be seen, either. :|

I suspect the Liberator is simply too obscure for this fairly US-centric view, although I like the Red Dwarf inclusion!

It's also a few years old now and I think pre-dates Iron Sky?

MORE DAKKA!

I found a site ages ago, I think it was a showcase for trainee CGI artists. Someone had done a re-imagining of the Liberator that looked fecking awesome. But can I find it now? Can I buffalo.

Edit: well I found a preparatory sketch...

I know it's not the one you're looking for, but to my eye it shows the difficulty of perspective the Liberator has in the top section.

Now where's my Spear Of Destiny 12"??

Blakes 7 is getting remade for Netflix isn't it?

If so, it'll be in the next revision
