I hate it when someone says, "See the stuff at..." and doesn't include the
address. Which is, I realize, what I've just done.
My upper deck drawings are here:

The lower deck drawings are here:

Gary Kerr is the man responsible for the Moebius Jupiter 2. He started a thread
on how it came to be here:
http://www.hobbytalk.com/bbs1/showthread.php?t=255048
tho the thread quickly got out of hand and lost focus, almost all of the good
stuff is at the very beginning. Gary has done just a brilliant job.

I made these drawing about 20 years ago partly as plans for a 1/24 J2 that I was
building. They were based on copies of Fox blueprints of the floor plans and
profiles and a few other details that I had. I didn't quite finish them back
then. With the advent of computers and the net and DVDs I was able to fill in
some of the missing details like the Robot's magnetic lock (from the great files
here) and the location of the engine room door buttons. The drawings aren't
finished yet. You here are some serious Jupiter 2 experts and I hope you'll be
able to spot errors or offer corrections or suggest missing details. Maybe once
they are "finished" I'll ship them off to Uncle Odie or somewhere for a more
permanent home.
I won't leave my drawings up here too long as I know there's limited file space
and I've temporarily got the whole set up elsewhere. Maybe a week or so. Thanks
in advance for looking and for any help.
Amazing, amazing work you all are doing. You're files/photos just blow me away.

Nice drawings.  I sure wish I'd waited five years to build my flightdeck.  One or two of the things I built might have been accurate.

In a file called "upper deck drawings", I posted the first few of 60 or 70 drawings I've made of the Jupiter 2s upper and lower deck. The rest of these are posted over on the Hobbytalk SF Modeling forum, by Starseeker or Starseeker 2. I'd like to have posted them all here but there is no room.
An explanation of how I drew these is there.
I would LOVE anyone to let me know about corrections, errors, etc.
Also, at Hobbytalk, there is an entire forum devoted to Moebius models, sponsored and (tho rather roughly) moderated by Moebius. Lots of great stuff on the upcoming Jupiter 2. You people are a great resource. I'd love to see what you'd have to add to some of the discussions.

Gosh Pat
   Ive waited just about that, am still picking up peices here and there ,And
still dont know that it will look as good as yours does

With the quality of the reproductions going on lately one would be thinking SOMEONE is about to make a fan film.........    awesome work guys......awesome!!!!!

 

Thanks, it's under a 100 year old house in Nebraska, however it's just a single
basement room inspired by the Jupiter 2.
The only full size part is the flight console, the rest is just a   partial
replica. When it's done, I thought it'd be a great place to display my robot
when I finish him, to make him feel at home. Of course, since he'll be a 1st
seaon robot, he might go haywire after following Smiths programming and smash
the room up too.

This is the entrance to my Jupiter 2 room. Even though it has an airlock
control, I made a interior Jupiter 2 door instead, without the window in it,
however it does slide open. The solar system poster is like the one they had
hanging in the 3rd season "stairway". The 1st season cabin pressure control
panel would have been just outside of and to the left of that storage room.

It is the landing gear control panel. It was added for the second season,
probably because they planned to have more leg down landings. The control can
also control individual landing legs independently too for non level ground.

Sorry if this is just BARELY on topic...OK maybe not at all...but I've got a
weird little TV on eBay right now and I wanted to tell some of you LIS techies
about it. If you do an eBay search on the phrase "Wild TV Lost in Space" it
should turn right up. I would just post a link, but I've noticed that for many
of you, the link seldom comes out right.

You really gotta take a look at this little guy, it breaks my heart to sell it!
It's just so cool-looking! Definitely would have been right at home on the set
of Star Wars, Star Trek, Silent Running, 2001. And of course, LIS. Picked it up
a few days ago. I've seen other weird looking TVs go for some big bucks, so
we'll see if I hit gold!

I guess the TV I'm selling seems on-topic because the damn thing just LOOKS like
a prop! Would be perfect for a film set in the late 60s or early-to-mid 70s. I'm
not trying to be a hard-nosed sales guy; I'm mentioning it mainly because I want
you all to get a look at the thing. Especially Smilin' Stan Brewer, the would-be
TV King!! The Victorian Cad!! The Steam-Driven Centurion!

OK...watch out...here comes the fast-talking salesman...if you do the Buy it Now
feature, and mention this LIS list, I'll ship for free and throw in a DVD of LIS
rarities that I compiled over the years. End of sales pitch.

I based it on a blueprint drawn by Gary Kerr for the Moebius Jupiter 2.
Even though little details like that wouldn't show up on the model, he
drew them up as if it was for a full scale Jupiter 2 and then reduced
them. He based his tripod blueprint on a screen grab. Also in the
Jupiter 2 Operators Manual, it shows the tripod control with the painted
area around the pushbuttons and lamps. Even though it's a fan based
book, I believe they must have used original blueprints to make their
drawings, because some of their drawings are exactly like some original
blueprints I have, including some areas never seen on screen..

Bill,

Regarding your Tripod Control in the pic below:

For the lower three round lamps, you painted a colored-keyed area on the panel
base extending around each lamp to and around the lower corresponding push
button.  What was this based on?  Study of screen shots?  Just curious.

I added some more panels to the flight console this afternoon and mounted the
three B205s. It's now much harder to climb through the viewport to get behind
it. The center one has an original prop Electodata faceplate on it, so I wanted
to keep the light plates the original gray colors. The other two are complete
replicas and I painted them the Burroughs blue colors. One B205 hides some small
fans that blow the plants in a small forced perspective hydroponic garden tank
to simulate windstorms, along with wind sound effects.
    I put my Bloop there because he warns when aliens are present by snarling and
clapping the cymbals, ala Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

There were even more speakers everywhere too, I even have 9 in my little
Jupiter 2 room.

That's the power cord the John wrestled with after Smith caused it to start
sparking. Actually it's a temporary fix until I get the permanent wiring done. I
tend to jump ahead and quickly hook things up to see how it'd look lit up. The
B205 isn't wired up yet either. I'll probably spend the rest of the winter
wiring up panels. I can keep more motivated to work on it though if I can
actually see some things finished up.
