  1. Thanks! Have to do a little more painting to neaten the red up, but it's getting close. And the closest HS that sells Tamiya near me is just over an away. Frustrating, though I have been able to get what I need through the mail when I can't make the trip.
  2. It's so hard to tell from normal air show footage how maneuverable a plane is, and what it's actually doing in any given area. Seeing from a distance like this puts its moves into perspective.
  3. They missed the boat on making Phasma just flippin bad-ass! She was good up until the shield scene, and then it was like 'wait, what?!' the mention of the trash compactor saved that scene with a laugh, but that was still there. I really hope that since we didn't really see her die in TLJ that maybe she'll show up in 9, and they'll redeem the character into a true irredeemable sh*t who actually does things right for the First Order.
  4. The only problem I ever had with Moebius decals were those with the Viper Mk II. The long red stripes literally just broke apart, but that was years ago now. A new kit may have better decals, though the ones with the Galactica, mainly the flight deck decals, went down alright. For this model, I didn't use the Pegasus decals and it doesn't supply any red stripes or sections as decals.
  5. Nice recovery on the 'cat! The plaque is looking good too.
  6. I liked Titan AE as well. It was good movie with a cool soundtrack. Also liked the movie, though it was dated almost from the moment it was made. Mmmm Mimi Rogers in that tight space suit though... Really excited to see this LiS! The visuals are stunning and I like the idea with the robot being an alien creation, and I hope it brings a cool origin story for the robot. Now I just hope the writing and acting tie it all together.
  7. I like that one too. If you use the Face, go to Colonial Fleet Shipyards. They have plans for an Adamant, I believe in 1/4105 to match the Moebius kits. They also have the Berzerk, a Gunstar, the Prometheus and others. There's a wait though. Lovely kits, but they take forever to arrive. It's a closed group, but you just have to ask for an invite. https://www.facebook.com/groups/531852053591027/?ref=br_rs
  8. Just incredible images. It looks like they almost just went down.
  9. Sweet looking Valhalla! And those ships from the BSG Deadlock game looking very cool. I especially like the Adamant. And the Jupiter class are different in it, in that they have extra pod arms and different armor lay-outs.
  10. Love the look of the Pegasus even more than the nuGalactica! But as Han would say, "I've made few special modifications myself..." The head has been cut down and she has full size flight pods top and bottom (whereas the original kit has smaller pods on the bottom side), along with doubled-up Viper launchers sandwiched in between.
  11. Nice Prophecy and great start on the Cat's Eye. I have one too that I have yet to finish. My current project is one that has been sitting on the shelf for a year, stalled at the paint stage. Back on it now! The Mercury class Battlestar Galactica.
  12. I just saw that the other day! Great movie. Was also thinking if there were any models of it out. Thanks for the link.
  13. That's an awesome looking statue! Probably a bit price though. Maybe I can take a barbie horse and mount my Hot Toys WW on it instead.
  14. Looking real nice. Really like the color scheme.
  15. That looks sooo good! The camo pattern is quite attractive. What comic is that from?
  16. It may not be the Falcon. Another SSM member floated the idea that this is just a different freighter, but that it was the one that caught Lando and Han 's eye.
  17. Half way through and I'm liking it. Even when it wanders from the main plot it's still interesting. I just wish there was a lot less nudity and sex.
  18. Wow, nice Dora!! Has to be my favorite 190 design. For me, I have this old flying disc...
  19. Liking the look of it so far. For a teaser it got me interested, especially that shot of the Star Destroyer coming through that storm. Awesome visual. But then Star Wars has never had a problem with visuals.
  20. Nice work on that Raptor, it looks awesome. It does look a little stubby though. Here's some views on stretched Raptors.
  21. Same place they put the huge Thomas the Tank Engine. I hope they still have the dog-sized ant.
