Anyone ever built a large-scale Mon Calamari cruiser?

A guy I know carved a huge zentradi battleshipout of foam and that was as curvy as the Mon cal pickle....

Space Capital ships get no love. Too few of those…too many action figures and cars.

For real...After I complete my rebel fleet of scratchbuilds I want to build some Homeworld-inspired capital ships. More colorful than Star Wars

Do you have any pictures? I've thought about foam, do you happen to know what kind of foam would be best for the ship's structure?

I asked a mutual friend to see if he could find some pictures and maybe find out what kind of foam was used...

Wow what a cool creation! Thanks for tracking those pictures down! After today I'm thinking some sort of foam structure might be the way to go, since I'm shooting for a 5-6 foot ship and don't want it to be too heavy. Thank you!!

Plus it's a lot less work than other materials I'm told
