Builds By Baz- Full scale Mk II Colonial Viper

[binarysunset]

Love it mate, such an inspiration!! I’m just starting on some greeblies on my build and I’m learning a lot from your posts. Much appreciated

 

[Rupidupe]

I keep coming back to this to see if there are updates!

 

[Prefect42]

WOW!!! Another brilliant update.

Sorry to hear you've got that nasty flu. That frakkin' thing hangs on something fierce. Hope it's gone soon.

Cheers,

Ted.

Thanks for all your encouragement gang!

Update:

Tell me grinding the geometries on these suckers, weren't a pain in the bum.

Now that all the greeblies in the avionics access panels are made, I have to recess the opening further in, until nothing is outside the level of the skin of the aircraft.

It's really coming together.

For some reason, I keep thinking about Chief building the Blackbird when I look at your updates.

Have you settled on a call sign for the cockpit? Numbers on the upper engine cover? Someone from the show or your own?

Loving the latest updates. Your hard work continues to shine.

Cheers,

Ted.

Yes mate. All taken care of.

I'm not a BSG fan but this is a spectacular work of art! WOW!

 

[Prefect42]

You just don't do anything small, do you?

I'm loving the artwork. And the little touch of displaying it / keeping artwork flat with season 1 colonial blaster: Brilliant!

Cannot wait to see what else you have up your sleeve.

Cheers,

Ted.

After today's Iron man gig at the Rise above Convoy for Cancer in Canberra, I went straight back into the shed and got busy on the avionics access panels. Pretty much done, now to recess the fuselage a little more to allow them to fit, then trim the edges off.

This build is so insane!! The level of detail in a prop that scale just blows my mind. Enviable work.

 

[sandbagger]

Thanks 13doctorwho.

Tail wing taking shape!

 

[gregday]

I love threads like this to remind me I am not the craziest person in the prop collecting world. I would have started skimping on the details of this long before this point. Well done.

 

[joberg]

Outstanding mate

 

[sandbagger]

Thanks again for all the encouragement folks!

Update:

Assembling tail wing.
