I had been wanting to create some props to fill out a setting I’ve been working on, and the SCUD seemed like something fun. It shares a design heritage with the Commadore 64, the first cell phone, and various computers from the 80s. I wanted it to feel like a ruggadized retro-future scanner and laptop that can be jacked into various ship’s system to run diagnostics.
