The end of the September, typhoon #24 came across the vicinity of my house and blew off the roof of my house in the middle of the night. We had to run around in our house to catch up rain leak with many bowls and pots. In the morning, I call up the carpenter and he came right away. Since then he and his wife have been working on the repair and sometimes his 12 years son came along with them to help. I just thought if I might able to give away something for his son and I just remember the old Monogram/Bandai Galactica kit has been deserted in the junk parts box for more than 20 years. I decided to build it and give it away to him.
That was a quick four days build. The last time I built a kit was more than 30 years ago. And the last time I built this kit was 40 years ago.
I know he might not know anything about that TV show Battle Star Galactica. Hope he likes it.
I know this model is not very accurate as compare to the recent Moebius kit but I built this old kit strait and no re-shaping.
This red acrylic plate will be thrusters.
In side of the both flight decks.
And some bits work.
Lighting fiber and LEDs.
Build a display stand and paint job.
A few days ago, I handed this model to the boy's mother.
Next day, the boy came to my house to say thank you.
Looks he is happy with that model.
The damage of that typhoon cost us almost $30,000.
Fortunately, we could cover that with insurance.
The construction will take another 2 or 3 weeks.
And we are all fine and alright.
