This is a scratchbuilt model of the Battlestar Pegasus from the Sci-fi series “Battlestar Galactica” This is my third attempt at scratch-building and I would like to think that some effort shows given my restraints in time and materials. I love the design of the ship and it’s role in the series as a brutal [more]
This is a scratchbuilt model of the Battlestar Galactica from the Sci-Fi Channel series. I am a great fan of not only the storyline but the overall design and style of the series. The model itself is multimedia, mostly strip styrene and a gallon of bondo that was sitting in my pile of stuff leftover [more]
Here is a little something I just finished for fun and since you dont have one up on your board I thought I might drop it by you. It is the BSG Viper MarkII, sold by Scifi Models with custom decals by STModeler. Scale 1/48 Kevin Jones
Here are photos from a project being built by Peter Hutton — a Mark 11 Viper. See the finished model in the SF TV section

These are a pair of 1/72 Mk VII Vipers from Sci-Hi Models. They were basically built stock with the only mod I made to them being the additions of the control vanes for the engines. Markings for the Pegasus version came from the decals that came with the kit, except for the blue striping which [more]
Here’s some shots of my build-up of Coby’s Battlestar Galactica. The casting and fit were so nice it only took about 15 minutes to prep and assemble. I primered it with Duplicolor “Hot Rod Grey” sandible primer, over that I drybrushed it with Testor’s “Light Aircraft Grey” lightened and darkened with any spare greys I [more]
This was a pretty sweet kit I picked up at Wonderfest. It’s a hollow-cast resin prop replica of the Season 2 BSG TNS blaster. As most fans of prop guns know, the prop masters on the show switched guns between the first and second season. During the miniseries and Season One, they dressed up a [more]
I picked this up at Wonderfest, it’s a 1:1 rotocast replica of the Season One Blaster from the new Battlestar Galactica TV series. Whover did the master did an exceptional job, it looks VERY close to the onscreen props. This was a pretty simple build, the kit consist of the one piece gun body, a [more]
Moebius posted a second photo today. You can preorder the kit in the CultTVman Hobbyshop. It should be out later in 2010. Here’s a peak at the upcoming Galactica from Moebius. This was posted over at today.
I only had the #419 kit as a kid, so it was a real pleasure to finally build the #420 kit after owning the Polar Lights kit for almost 9 years. I did a bit of research before I started painting. First off , over the years I had come across several color photos of [more]
Ron’s Chariot was scratchbuilt, using thermoformed plastic over a pattern. The base section was carved from balsa wood. The interior is fully detailed as well. The Cyclops is a recast of the original Aurora kit. These models were originally features in an article in Scale Modeler September 1992.
This is my Polar Lights model #5032. The cyclops and chariot from the fourth episode of Lost In Space entitled “There Were Giants In The Earth”. I made this model a couple of years ago using instructions right from the box. I just snapped, glued and threw some paint on it. The end result was [more]
About two years ago Polar Lights reissued the old Aurora Lost in Space Cyclops kits. They were the first models I ever bought, and in fact I still had the original Chariot in my parts box (31 years later!). Excitedly I bought several kits and placed them in storage until I decided what the heck [more]
