Richard Baker Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 This one was built about the same time as the Small Scout Ship posted earlier. It is 1:72 scale, this time I built the main hull first with sheet styrene then added details later instead of having the design being donor kit driven. It does not belong to any particular universe, just another interesting tarmac vessel. The idea was to create a small compact ship able to explore a multitude of environments. The port side has long high powered energy projector which is able to extend and aim about 20 degrees off the centerline in most directions, unfortunately over years the some of the support arms have broken off. The leading edges on the main hull are gaped for sensors and I gave it some battle damage for a bit of history.No decals were used with this model, the only thing I think I would really change is the markings on the underside of the nose- I only had a sharpie and it still bothers me. This was, however, just built for fun back in the early eighties there were not so many SciFi kits out there I did not already have and so I just started making up my own designs...

Richard Baker Posted February 4, 2020 Author Share Posted February 4, 2020 "Family Photo" Here is a group photo of the last two posts as I keep them at home. The model on the turntable is my very first complete scratchbuild, circa 1978. All are in matching scale (1:72) 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
