My Colonial Movers saga... FINISHED!!!

[ralphee]

Never gelled with anything from BSG, struggle to love it, but i cant discount the fact that is one hell of a replica, and, some of the best weathering work ive seen on here, that front module is off the hook.
I think were set for something special with your Narc in the future!

Wow Lee, your Colonial Movers came out great! Glad ALL the info I've posted over the years helped you to make such a great and accurate model.

Ahhhh George, see I forgot you on the thanks list (fixed) Yes your help was invaluable!

 

[timeslip]

Thanks Lee, to be honest there were only TWO people who really figured that sucker out, Mark Dickson and myself. The sad thing neither of us have finished our own! Still on the build list. :lol

I think your's is probably one of the best build-ups of the Colonial Movers I've ever seen! And I've worked on the real screen used one. Great work. I can't wait to see your next creation. :love

I think we should also be recognizing the work you put into the model's STAND as well - sharp all around, Lee.

pssst, it's a table lamp

Hey, use what works!

 

[Lee S]

Aaaaaand I'm done! Added a couple of escorts, really helps with the scale.

Huge thanks to Kip Hart, Jeff Waclawski and Jason Eaton.

Oh you magicians (shakes finger at screen)

Nicely done Lee

We don't understate these amazing projects enough, so just to offset the outrageous awesome, I give you understated praise...

It's a good effort.






Of course my real feelings on the subject are these. First, I'm thrilled that it turned out so perfect, and second, I'm fantasizing about breaking into your place and stealing it. Of course I'll leave some small token as a calling card. Maybe a little origami yellowjacket.

 

[Lee S]

Thanks all, especially to Jim, who started this whole project!
