BS Galactica in a Shadowbox

[challenger77]

Hello Friends,

i will show you my Build of the Moebius galactica and the Vipers.
i have lighted them with LEDs, and altered them slightly.
On the Galactica i rebuild the Ribs and Plates on the Back and and on the "Head"
Used Accreation Decals , Guns from Time Slip and the Etchings from Paragrafix.
The Colors are from Blackhat Miniatures, the Original Manafacture of the Citadel/Warhammerrange, still in the Flip-Top-Bottles

The Galactica aka The Bucket





Inside the Landingbays

Very nice. I like it. I was wondering what those decals would look like, now I know.

working on mine right now. very nice decals must have been a pain to apply.

going on with the r Viper MK II

Drill out the Positionjets, Damage done with a Minidrill and a file.
Coloring with Tamiya Acryls, trying the salt and water Methode to show the Colorchipping, functions very well.
The only Problem are the Decals, they are very very brittle,but as i want to show a very used and dirty Machine no graet Problem.

and here is the Viper MK VII

all like the MK II only the Cockpit was copletley changed by the Paragrafix one.And i have made new gunpods.

















5 days before our exhibition in Vienna, i have reconigsed the Model would not be good enough to show the Crowd, so i build another one.
Cut out the complete Cockpit to use it in the new Kit also the finishd Engines find there Place in the new one.

to show the models propely i build a Shadowbox from sandwichsheets to save weight.
i made a double backwall to light the "planets and stars" with a bunch of LEDs. I use a cellphonecharger as powersupply, functions very well.
