The proud ship Epilogue I sets sail on the seas of time! This build was put together by Joebricksy with help from fellow members of the Gazamo build team.
Joe’s been a crafter for some five or so years now - three of which have been spent as part of the Gazamo crew - and the experience certainly shows with this ship design, incorporating elements from different cultures and time-periods to create something really striking.
“I wanted it to look sci-fi but at the same time really old - so that it doesn’t belong to any one time,” says Joe. “I then added a few gothic elements to the bottom side and even some oriental details, like the wings. The reason I wanted to combine so many different styles was that I’ve built quite a few ships now, and they’ve each been one style - it feels like you’ve seen every different style now, so I wanted to do something that hadn’t been done before.”
The inspiration is surprisingly not nautical: “The idea came from me watching Back to the Future from the night before. I really liked the film, so I wanted to make something similar to that, and then I thought, well, if there’s a time-travelling car, why shouldn’t there be a time-travelling airship? You can’t really see that it’s a time-travelling airship now, but that’s what gave the main inspiration.”
