1/2 studio scale Offworld Blimp - DONE!!

[CutThumb]

Sounds like you're a SLAVE to original trilogy model builds but perhaps you were just FETTed to attempt this one sooner or later!

 

[moffeaton]

Heh, so the blimp made me brave enough to take on the curse of the Slave 1?

 

[CutThumb]

Curse? What curse? CALL HEXBEGON on 666-666-666 ! And you better give Guy Cowen a heads up about it too! (though he hasn't posted any more of his build in a while). The only alternatives I can think of that are multicoloured are the Mon Calamari cruisers but interestingly they are a bit blimp shaped. You do a SS of either of those and you may have to open a museum.

Man... I saw this yesterday at Wonderfest live. Awesome doesn't do it justice as a descriptor. Your work is just fantastic Jason, it is one of the high points of the convention every year for me and lots of other people to get to see your work first hand, thank you for continuing to bring awesome stuff for us to see.
