Space 1999 Eagle 12" Round 2


Recommended Posts

Hi guys

 

First topic in this section because I don't build only submarines :D

 

With real space models I'm starting to build my first Eagle .OK the MPC 22 " models is awesome but before his release I Have constituted a little collection in 12" with round 2 & Warp models . Only kits  , no Product Enterprise , but maybe I 'll buy the new Sixteen 12 models in this scale .

 

After Alpha moonbase (new MPC kit with the 5 pads ) I would like to stay simple with my first Eagle , only Paragraphix PE & some scratch on the engine section , cage module detailled for later models ...

 

In first remplacement the wrong parts with the PE :

This is a vast improvement over the base kit, nice job. I've still got one of these left in the stash along with the Paragafix etch and a Warp Eagle Laboratory kit, however having now built 3 x 22" kits, I can't bear the thought of all the work needed to be done to this kit to make it reasonable... ditto with the Warp kit, even though I've done a lot of the clean up of the white metal spine...

 

Good job on this though!

Thank's guy for comments 

 

Kallisti : You're right ,it's more difficult today to have motivation on these old kits (MPC or Warp), the MPC 22 inches is awesome :D 

 

I know your's eagle Mr Boldman ;)
