Using old model kits for a Midcentury Mars diorama

Greetings! We're Alex and Dani, and we're seriously nerdy about model kits. But we have a hard time leaving them intact, what with all the war and such. In this video, watch us take some 1:48 scale kits used for World War II models and transform them into a scene from an imaginary Martian colony founded in the 1950s. We turned a Japanese 4x4 vehicle into a magnetic-hover Postal Vehicle and RAF pilots into a gentleman and his pup greeting the Martian mail carrier. We challenged ourselves to use bits and pieces we had on-hand to craft a midcentury bunker exterior that’s carved right into the side of those orange cliffs. And because we’re seriously nerdy about research, did you know that even in the 1940s, astronomers believed that Mars had vegetation? The science fiction from that era is wild! That’s why, for this build, the inhabitants need only a little extra oxygen and dwellings built into the terrain for climate control, and can otherwise live comfortably on the Red Planet. You may have noticed that we’re trying out a new format in this video: the build is front and center, without us doing intro or outro and without narration. Let us what you think of this style in the comments – we’d love to know your thoughts!
