Just means a little fittling work. I think we're up to it!
-
Despite the fact that I never seem to finish much, here's another build on the table... The Colonial Battleship Zeus. The backbone of the Colonial Fleet at the outbreak of the Cylon War, they stood against the relentless tide of Cylon ships until the Raiders appeared in heavy numbers. Without fighter protection of their own, the Atlas class battleships suffered greatly - until the refit. Later ships than the Zeus had their hulls lengthened and flight bays fitted to either side, creating what would be the epitome of Colonial fleet technology for decades to come - the battlestar... So, here's the WIP of the father of the battlestar.

Wow, nice work on the lights!

NO!! Not in the least. No way and no how! I do not protest too much!! This horse is dead. Now we must stop it from becoming a zombie horse!

Thanks, I'm used to other boards that don't have that option.

So, apparently you get to say what you want, and then snipe at people who respond to it as being overly 'irked...' You do realize that this is a public board where people will respond to what you say..? In any case, my position is the idea that a show that is only two episodes in is somehow being racist by killing and zombifying more black characters than white is totally pointless. I will redirect you to my first post that you've decided to take a personal interest in, It is waste of time, so yes, let's get back to our regularly scheduled program...
-
Did I step on a toe I didn't see sticking out there..? I'm merely pointing out that there are many white characters who have been killed off throughout the show as well as black characters. In that I mean TWD. I'm sure FTWD will catch up between the black and white quotas soon enough to appease everyone. Basically, it's an empty question asked merely to ellicit a response, which only makes it more pointless...
-
Yeah, cause no white characters die on the show... Why are people always so intent on making something out of the nothing?
-
I never really got into, even though I like Noah Wiley. I've watched the Librarians, which is a fun show. But this one...

The man is a genius. G.E.N.I.U.S.

Thank you, although now I must wait until I get home...

I hope that means it'll have extra parts, rather than switching out sprues. I'd love to have another set of ARMD carriers. And who else thinks that it is looong past time for a Macross 7/Frontier in 1/4000..? Which is also a pretty close scale to the new BSG models... Hmmm...
-
I don't care. Another SDF coming, that's all that matters!
-
Preorder made!!

So is this an actual contact contest? If so, the American rig is way too top heavy for that. If it is only paintballs and points, then I see no problem. Looking at it, I do think it needs a larger tread base, but that's only if it becomes a contact match. Over all, how the outside looks doesn't matter when compared to what's underneath. As long as the hardware is sound, it doesn't matter how pretty it is. Although, the American rig can use a nice touch of paint here and there. And there. And just right over there... I'm rooting for Megabot! Hopefully, we'll quickly come to a newer version of Robot Combat League, only with on board pilots!

F-16 XLs... Then double the production of F-22s and resurrect the YF-23 for naval service while you're at it. Then let's get to building a series of aircraft, individual frames, that would answer the actual need of the service involved rather than just a mushy shrug as an answer for them all. THEN hold the aircraft company's collective feet to the fire in order to keep them to their projected cost!
-
The mistake was trying to do a multi-service bird in the first place. It will probably be a good plane. But that's it. Just good, when our military really deserves the best in all respects for each service.

It's the /1000 Reliant model. I cut and inset the front of the saucer and grafted pieces of the torpedo pod onto it. The rollbar has been left off, and I scratched a new set of nacelle pylons.

Ah the old trainer. You sir, bring back memories...

The Syfy Channel Original Movies Thread!

Well, look at what else was on!! Against those choices, even I would say that Sharknado had been touched by Shakespear! -
The Syfy Channel Original Movies Thread!

When I see that list of movies, I can only wonder at what could have been had they used all that money for fewer movies of far greater quality. What a waste. -
I think that's the only way it could really work...

Ecto-1 should have style and presence shooting out the tail pipe. It's gorgeous curves are like a 1940's pin-up. It caught my eye not because it was a 25 year old clunker, but because even when it was beat up and ratted out, it was still beautiful. Yes, I understand that the 'new' Caddy (not calling it Ector-1) is generationally in the same spot, but it is nothing like the original. No style. No flare. Just a brick painted white. With a yellow light on top... Yellow!!!?! And the group photo looks like they broke out of a correctional facility...

I never saw the original series, so I don't know much about that, But this looks really good. Definitely fun and its great to see Cavil spreading out from the Superman role. Although I am hoping for a gag reel where he opens his shirt to show the 'S'!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_Ky4KPzKwY

Was clued into this from SSM. I recall reading the 'Sword of Shannara' many many years ago, as an introduction to Fantasy along with the Dragonlance novels. Seeing this preview, I'm really hoping for many good things from this! Just these first glimpse are exciting! And if anything, it will give me a reason to watch MTV again...
