  1. Another that's on my want to do list at some point too so will be watching this with interest.
  2. Superb work. The battle damage is surreal considering the scale.
  3. My eldest is getting one of these for her birthday in a few days. I queried why she was wanting a snap together kit and she showed me this thread. She is wanting to build the kit with a few little extra but the main thing she is wanting to do is to weather it as it totally transforms the model. She has her eyes on one of the larger at at kits but they are a little out of her price bracket at the moment.
  4. I've got one of these in the cupboard along with a couple of the other smaller Bandai star wars models. I had been avoiding them on the grounds of too small but yours has changed my mind on that. Good work really nice model.
  5. I must admit that shelf space is at a premium here but I would find space for a 1/72 eagle and hawk.
  6. I've got one of these on the bench at the moment. Great work & nicely added details.
  7. I have a soft spot for paper models. Currently have a 18 inch paper space 1999 eagle on the go. It is a long term project as there are so many paper tubes to make for the frame. Got the command module (the beak) and a bit of the frame work done. I dread to think the number of hours I have in the model so far let alone to think how many till its done. I really must have a go at one of his models at some point as they are all so nice.
  8. Parcelforce delivered a Eagle freighter for me yesterday. My wife ordered it me for my 50th a few months back. Now I need to find time to build both the eagle freighter and the eagle transporter.
  9. That is superb. Its another one I have added to my wanted list.
  10. Nice work with the model and lighting Steve. I have the very same model sat waiting to be built and you have pretty much done what I am wanting to do to my model. I was going to use mine as way back into modelling after a break of many years & to get my hand in before I start on my Space 1999 eagle model. Didn't quite goto plan as I have been helping my daughter, she is 14, with her Voyager kit that she got for Christmas. I really must make a start on the Enterprise sooner rather than later.
  11. That looks superb. I have one of these sat on the floor next to me. I ended up with the 50th anniversary box set that contains this and the original series Enterprise. I am planning to go down the lighting route & will be over the moon if mine comes out half as good as yours.
  12. This morning a box arrived that's heading straight for the loft. Since getting back into modelling I have made the decision that I want to build science fiction models & have already got a collection of the cheaper star wars kits to get back upto speed. Also picked up a couple of Revell Star trek kits that I have plans for (lighting etc) but talking to my wife the other day about my favourite spaceship of all time and the Space 1999 eagle has to be it. Needless to say I want to build one of the large eagle kits at some point so it was decided that my xmas gift this year is going to be a space 1999 eagle & while there are still a few about it would make sense to buy the kit now rather than wait till there are only a few about and the prices have gone silly. I had to have a look in the box when it arrived and unlike so many other kits where the boxes are quite empty I was shocked to see the box is full & I am both excited and quite nervous about starting the build (which wont take place till at least xmas) but at least that lets me get used to kit building again. Its like being a young child again & cant wait.
