Some paint fell on models. Again.... :eek
On the left is the Starline 2200 (I think?) Constitution-class gaming miniature. It's painted AS-5 Light Blue (Luftwaffe). I've got decals for her and instead of Enterprise, she'll be Defiant, NCC-1764 - now we know where she really went after she fell thru that rip in space.
The SPACE:1999 Eagle is from the Moonbase Alpha set, and yes, I'm no it's not to-scale. If I went with a to-scale Eagle, you'd not be able to see it, for the most part. I wanted to add one to my RTF.
The three TNS Passenger Liners are from Timeslip Creations. I have two more that are unbuilt. One is painted Tamiya AS-20 Insignia White (US Navy), one is AS-516 Light Grey (USAF) and the last is AS-19 Intermediate Blue (US Navy). I had originally painted that last one Tamiya TS-10 French Blue, but didn't like it, so painted over it as I want this one to be the Olympic Carrier Lines ship. It turned out darker than it would have if I'd just shot it over the primer, tho and I wasn't about to try and strip it, re-primer, etc...
Here's a couple pics of what I'm calling a Pre-Cylon War Luxury Liner. The two main hull halves are the weapons pod fairings off of some aircraft kit, the wings are resin wings from some other aircraft kit and I have no clue for sure where the rest of the parts came from, other than likely more aircraft kits.
A couple years back, Eric / lakespeed gave me a huge box of pieces/parts from various aircraft kits. That box was the source of the donor parts, so there ya go. I think it has a sort of Flash Gordon-ish (1930's) look to it.
I started working on this while I was building the Battlestar Triton. I had set the parts aside in a Ziploc baggy and found them one day while going thru pieces/parts to add some extra details to Triton. I finally decided to build it.
I'm not sure what color her base coat will be at this time. Leaning towards giving her a two-tone look, tho. Gotta find some kind of logo decals for her, too....
