My Son's Basestar build!

[Chrisisall]

Here's my Son's Basestar model *just* completed. It's a Cylon ship that was captured by the Colonial fleet & converted for Colonial use!

He's 12, and I'm so proud of him I can't tell ya!

Outstanding!

Nice job! I got a big kick out of the altered plaque...

One bit of constructive criticism - wouldn't a stargazing dome be more effective on the upper section, so that the rest of the ship doesn't block the view?

Just 12 yrs old ... Wow! Also like the plaque.

Just 12 yrs old ... Wow!

Only thing I helped on was fitting the two halves together before he glued them.
Boy, I couldn't have done anything like this when I was 12...:lol

Well I guess I will go and get mine out of the display case and start the rework.......

My Son's reply (speak up, boy!!!):

what are you planing on doing with it? (out of curiosity)
oh, a suggestion: if you plan on a total repaint, don't wait for the paint to dry while adding a new color.

I concur- it adds depth to the finish, in my experience.:thumbsup

I would like to do a paint scheme similar to the one I did on my Galactica. This Basestar is full of detail as the Galactica is and I think that staining the model would make it pop. I will post pics if I think that it is "post worthy".

Cool. We'd like to see your Galactica as well!

Looks way better than anything I made when I was twelve! Great work, and I love the redesigned touches.
