ALIEN: USCSS NOSTROMO 1/480 (Scratchbuilt)

Man that kit is a beauty. I know the kind of time and effort these kind of builds take so my hats off to you for pulling this one off!

 

[Wreav]

wow!

 

[Darrengodzilla]

Amazing!! That's some serious modelling going on there!
Mind if I ask, what's a 'grab bag? Is that for kit bashing or something?

 

[YawningMan]

Just breathtaking. There are no words. One of the most amazing modeling undertakings I've ever laid eyes on. You're in a league all your own...

For those modelers among us 'not' at that level, the Halcyon Nostromo isn't that bad of a kit. When there truly are no other options in the marketplace, you have to go with what IS available and make the best of it (there have been some custom job kits/ extremely limited run Nostromo kits over the years but I'm not referring to those).

Maybe I'm being an idiot, but wasn't the Nostromo a kind of station thing with those three huge towers?

The Nostromo was the ship in "Alien" on which most of the movie takes place.

I know, but I though it looked like this:

The Nostromo is the tiny aircraft in the front.
Everything else is the whole rig

OK, gotcha. Thanks
