SketchUp 3D Challenge #200 - Sci-Fi Movie Prop

Thursday, 23 January '14 - Monday, 03 February '14

This challenge marks the 200th challenge of the SketchUp 3D Challenge!
Thanks to all the volunteers and participants who have taken part in the fun throughout the past 6 1/2 years.
Science fiction movies have caught the imagination of moviegoers since the days of silent films, but, it wasn't until the 1950s when public interest in space travel and new technology that the genre really took hold. Along with so many of these iconic films were the unique props used to convey the story.

Challenge Requirements: In this challenge you are to model a movie prop from a well known sci-fi motion picture in the highest level of detail you can provide in the time allotted for the challenge.

Standard Participation Rules apply. Thanks to Danilo Vincenzo for the challenge topic suggestion.

SketchUp 3D Challenge #199 - Bell Tower

Bell tower

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A bell tower is a tower that contains one or more bells, or that is designed to hold bells, even if it has none. In the European tradition, such a tower most commonly serves as part of a church and contains church bells. Modern bell towers often contain carillons.
The Italian term campanile, deriving from the word 'campana' meaning bell, is synonymous with 'bell tower'; in American English it tends to be used to refer to freestanding bell towers.
A bell tower may also be called a belfry, though this term may also refer to the substructure that houses the bells rather than the tower as a whole.
For this challenge you are free to design your own or model an existing bell tower. The one exception is that it must NOT also be a clock tower in respect to Challenge #056 - Clocktower (I won!).

Rocket
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A rocket is a missile, spacecraft, aircraft or other vehicle that obtains thrust from a rocket engine. Rocket engine exhaust is formed entirely from propellants carried within the rocket before use. Rocket engines work by action and reaction. Rocket engines push rockets forward simply by throwing their exhaust backwards extremely fast.
What better way to rocket into the New Year than with a rocket challenge? You are free to design or model any type of rocket you choose or even invent your own kind of rocket. Rockets are often smooth and sleek so you are further challenged to add details to your rocket from the rocket motor to the cone. Feel free to fulfill your space travel fantasy or model something from history; it's totally up to you.

Standard Participation Rules apply. Thanks to Francesco Tassoni for the challenge topic suggestion.
