(Oculus Ltd Edition Mystical Gothic Artwork by Des Knock BSc)
Steampunk Rocket (Victoriana) Print.
Steampunk Rocket (Victoriana) Print.
The Steampunk spirit reaches into imagination and extrapolation of scientific alternatives with a distinctly Victorian perspective.....a what if universe were clock work mechanisms and riveted metal are the norm. This Steampunk Rocket is a natural evolution from the visions of Jules Verne and H.G. Wells and this interplanetary traveller is of course fully equipped with top hat waistcoat and probably the makings for a cup of tea in his holdall.
The model was built for a feature in Sci-fi & fantasy modeller magazine volume 34 Century Castings Atomic Rocket Ship. Additions include resin rivets, watch parts and a fine paint job designed to enhance the overall metallic worn and weathered appearance typical of the Steampunk age.
The artwork of Des Knock BSc. has appeared in many venues ranging from Glastonbury Abbey (2006), 37 horror book covers, a number of hobby modelling magazines, and of late a range of aviation subjects that have resulted in Christmas cards for the RAF100, RAF Hendon Museum, LAHC etc. and museum designs displayed around the UK And in one instance for a New York theatre production.
This 12 x 8 inch production is printed on quality photographic paper ready to be framed. Each print will be author signed and not just be a copy of a signature hence collectible. And this will be the first in a collection to be designed.

RAF Air Sea Rescue & Marine Craft 1918 - 2018 Centenary Print
The Royal Air Force celebrated its Centenary in 2018 and to highlight the role played by the RAF in Air Sea Rescue and Search and Rescue this was designed for a display that was seen at Pompey (Portsmouth Naval Dockyard) in 2018.
This was designed by D. R. Knock BSc. and it included aircraft types such as the Shagbat, Shackleton, Nimrod and Seaking plus the nautical arm of Air Sea Rescue in the form of a Class 100 High Speed Launch, Hants and Dorset High Speed Launch and a post war RTTL as seen at RAF Hendon Museum. A fitting tribute to the Webfeet who served in Air Sea Rescue and as part of the Marine Craft Section.
Each print is personally signed by the artist making this a unique display, and one that has been donated to several Aviation Museums around the UK. The print is 12 x 8 inches and can be framed.
