NEW BSG BLACKBIRD !

Ok, UPDATE time again.... :D

I was going to wait until Friday but what the hey... :$

I will be posting a BIG,HUGE update this weekend on
the kit. LOT'S AND LOT'S of pic's so keep watch... :thumbsup

One very important thing I wanted to say first.
I had planned on having a build up of the kit to show
it off in it's full glory BEFORE emailing people it was available.
But, too many things going on have made that impossible. :(

Nevertheless, there WILL be a PROFESSIONAL build up by
a very talented friend of the Blackbird but it won't be ready
for some time.So, I am letting everyone know ahead of time that
if ANYONE would like a kit I will start emailing people next week
about it's availability. I would COMPLETELY understand if someone wanted
to wait to see an actual build up of the kit first before deciding on if they
wanted to get one. But, as I said, that won't be for some time...

Soooo, if interested please email me and I will add you to the list
and let you know when it's ready to go out the door next week .

Oh, and one other thing, this would NOT be a " deposit " kinda'
thing for a kit. I have been spending the past two months MAKING
kit's. So anyone who would want one will GET one as soon as payment is
received .

:D

For now though, keep watching as I will update more this weeeknd... :love

I mis-read this as "[there will be] a build up by a very talented friend, BlackBirdCD..."

You're more than welcome to send me a copy for build-up purposes :)
 
Ok, here we go with an update.. I'll be adding a

These will not be a part of the kit be will be available for those
that want to make a diorama of the flight deck...

{{Just a note, ALL parts are in 1/24th scale so they will
work for any " other " kit out there in the same scale.. }}
;)


First is the diagnostic computer set up for checking out the
ships on the flight deck. These will be sold in packs of TWO.

One note, I am getting the first TWENTY of these out the door
as a first come first serve basis. As you can see from the images there's
ALLOT of parts to this thing so I will only sell when I have kit's BOXED
and READY to ship .

Wow. awesome work here.
Isnt she carbon composite? how is that going to be repro'd with paint? very intricate pattern.
 
Got mine today....one word...WOW.

I just spent 10 minutes of stunned silence going through the kit.

Casting A+
Decals A+
Instructions A+
Details A+
FIT....

PRICELESS

The fit is what impressed me the most. Wolvster is an impressive scratch builder and a very good caster...so the detail and quality didn't shock me. What was most amazing to me is how well everything fit together. In a matter of minutes I had the Blackbird stairing me in the face, and I swear....(while I would never do this) simply using plastic glue and primer would do it justice...the seams rival seams on a plastic injection model....truly stunning work.

HUZZAAH KIP....
 
Haven't been following development closely, but that is one awesome model. Nothing new coming from Wolvster, though.
 
I received my kit this AM and am delighted.

Outstanding quality of sculpting and moulding... :D

Kip is a first-class guy and a pleasure to do business with - I would recommend his work to anyone.

I await his next endeavour with anticipation. :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

Ok, Im starting to build this wonderful kit.
Other then some minor sanding, it's falling together beautifully.
You couldn't ask for an easier straight forward build.

Now for the question.
Painting it straight flat black seems all to easy.
There must be other shades or high lighting required.
Has anyone built and painted one yet????

Thanks, Barry.
