Expanding the scale model idea

I've been working night and day on some school projects so work on the film has stalled for at least another week and a half. However, I've still been musing about what a future film project might look like. So far, it looks like this—

>grainy b/w, maybe shot in 8mm

>something to do with strange old aircraft or rockets, if only in the background. I did pick up a bunch of plastic models on Ebay (see below).

>looks like Guy Maddin's Eye Like a Strange Balloon but more mid-century than mid-1800's.

>Hanging miniatures and glass shots. No composites.
