Re: TOS BSG - Laser Turrets Replica

Quick progress update. Got the stripes on and first round of basic weathering. Next is to weather the strips and a bit more dirtying up.

Thanks George! Unfortunately, I can't make WF this year, work got in my way this time. Next year for sure though!!

Oh yeah, that's looking the duck's guts now Sean. That must have been a nightmare masking over all those railgun parts? Too many Leopolds lying around? Wish I had that problem!

Re: TOS BSG - Laser Turrets Replica

Extremely cool!

I always wondered--does this even vaguely match up to anything on the surface of the galactica model?

Re: TOS BSG - Laser Turrets Replica

Do you mean the NEW Series, since the
turrets are from the TOS G ?

Nope, but I've always thought that it was supposed to represent guns in the landing bay side and head side trenches.

I just love the little railings on the lower cannon; they really give a sense of scale. Too cool.:cool

Re: TOS BSG - Laser Turrets Replica

Well, it's finally done! Got her all weathered up as close as I could to the final filming miniature. The upper and lower turrets do rotate in any position manually. This was such a fun project (and HUGE), it's pretty cool to imagine them filming this model and how real they made it look!
Thanks for looking!
