3 foot SULACO patterns

Primetime21 · 12-30-2007, 01:26 PM

Hi all, just wanted to post some pics of the SULACO patterns I've been working on. A couple of the pics show a rough build held together with tape and rubberbands. The patterns will be going into rubber this week. I'll be posting more pics this afternoon of the parts break down.

That's a beauty! I about fell out of my chair looking at your AMAZING scratchbuilt Alien refinery. Where you BEEN, brutha?

First class work! Thanks for posting!

Lear60man · 12-30-2007, 01:55 PM

Nice, I assume that you will be making a kit? If so put me on the list depending on price!

Wow. Are you scaling up from the old Halcyon kit? Or are you using stills from the film for your reference?

Primetime21 · 01-01-2008, 10:23 PM

I have a set of drawings that I was using for scale and I'm going off stills of the studio miniature for detail.

LastBattlestar · 01-03-2008, 03:15 AM

Well, I'm pretty damn impressed! That ship was possibly going to be my next big project.

And now the eternal question: Do you have a price estimate yet?

seknewb · 01-04-2008, 05:46 PM

I'd be game for one of those too. VERY nice work form what I can see.

friendlyskies · 01-07-2008, 03:26 PM

That looks fantastic so far. I would be interested in one of the kits as well pending photos of the finished item and the price.

Cheers

Harry Harris · 01-07-2008, 03:26 PM

I'm interested in getting one of these too!

Scapey · 01-07-2008, 04:07 PM

Holy...

Man, I want.
I soooooo want!

Eagle · 01-07-2008, 06:59 PM

I can't wait to see comparison pics so I can choose which one.

Alien · 01-08-2008, 12:56 AM

Oh hell yes I'd be down to buy one of these if they are offered for sale!

Primetime21 · 01-19-2008, 10:15 PM

Just a quick update, several of the large parts got molded today.

Should have everything in the molds by early next week.

Nice! Here's something I wanted to share...

(BTW How do you get the larger images to appear in the message? rather than the thumbnail)

You can upload your image to a host, and link the URL of the hosted image to your post using the "Insert Image" icon in the control panel (the little picture of the mountain on the right side of the control menu above your message window when you are composing a message).

We are fortunate to have two members, Wackychimp and Pilot, who have very generously donated free hosting services for our use. You can find them through the "Related Links" area on the RPF Home Page, or using the links below.

Wakcychimp's Free RPF Image Host

Pilot's Free Image Host

When you go to either of the above pages, you'll be asked to select a photo to upload. When you do, the photo will be assigned a URL, which you can then paste into your RPF post using the aforementioned "Insert Image" feature. As an example, I've posted your image above, "Sulaco Model GV," using Pilot's hosting service. (Please let me know if you'd like this removed.)

Hope this helps!

Awesome Sulaco, by the way!

Thanks, Pilot!
