captain america Posted February 18, 2012 Author Posted February 18, 2012 Hi guys. Sorry for the long delay between updates, it seems like there just aren't enough hours in a day to do all the stuff I need to do... Anyhoo, molds have been poured, opened, and I will be doing some test-shots early next week. This is a great little project and I'm thoroughly enjoying myself; hopefully you guys are deriving a little pleasure from it too Quote
Lynx7725 Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Good grief. Just that one shot of the clear acrylic with your mold and air lines, that's really educational. Thanks man. Will you be making this generally available? Quote
ahiachris Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Captain!! This is the second time that I almost miss your new topic. I'm in for one set, please Quote
captain america Posted February 22, 2012 Author Posted February 22, 2012 Poof! Castings are now in progress and looking excellent. Quote
Mark Warlock Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) Captain, Amazing work as always. Have you decided what this jewel will go for? I'd love to bet my hands on a couple if I can afford them. Oh by the way.. I dig the Wagon Wheel light reflection in the glass table. My wife loves western decor.

The MWer who commissioned this project from me should be weighing-in shortly, as they'll be the one to discuss price with. I'm just a subcontractor on this one Wagon wheel: yeah, my folks were redecorating and had these old western-style light fixtures that they were just going to throw-out. I just loved the look of them and couldn't bear to see them discarded so I adopted them. Quote
captain america Posted March 5, 2012 Author Posted March 5, 2012 Hi everyone! Well if you're looking to procure an Ikazuchi kit or two, then this post is for you! I have roughly 12-15 kits available at $50 CAD a pop. (yes, Canadian dollars) Shipping: $13 CAD for up to 2 kits shipped within Canada/USA. Overseas: $25 CAD for up to 2 kits. Payments can be made via paypal by following the instructions below. Please read carefully. Payments must be in CAD funds ONLY, no exceptions. Payments not in Canadian funds will be returned. Paypal doesn't charge fees when you send a payment as a "Personal Transfer", so please use this instead of purchase payment/consumer purchase. The only caveat is that the funds must be drawn on your bank account or from your paypal balance. If for whatever reason you can't use this feature, please add 4% to the total to cover the paypal fees. If you don't have my paypal info or have any questions, please feel free to PM me as always Quote
Benson13 Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 What skill level is required for these kits? Your work is amazing but I am horrible at models. Quote
captain america Posted March 5, 2012 Author Posted March 5, 2012 What skill level is required for these kits? Your work is amazing but I am horrible at models. I can't honestly recommend a garage kit if you're not at least somewhat proficient with regular plastic models. Quote
Benson13 Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Gotcha. I'm off to go kick rocks then. Thanks though. Quote
Mommar Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 I put together a Star Destroyer kit back when I was in high school. I think it was twenty pieces total. I think I may go kick some rocks with Benson... Quote
captain america Posted March 6, 2012 Author Posted March 6, 2012 Oh, and here are the kit destructions ready to download Quote
Old_Nash Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) Decepticons???? That's NONSENSE XD Great work^^ Edited March 7, 2012 by Old_Nash Quote
Mommar Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 Looking at those instructions/parts this wouldn't be hard to build at all. Quote
renegadeleader1 Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 (edited) I want one, but to be honest if I try to paint it myself I'm going to ruin it. How much would it cost to build and paint one for me? Edited March 8, 2012 by renegadeleader1 Quote
Benson13 Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 I want one, but to be honest if I try to paint it myself I'm going to ruin it. How much would it cost to build and paint one for me? That is a really good question. Quote

I don't do commission builds but I'm sure that if you ask around the modeling or customs forums you'll be able to find people that will be more than happy to offer you their building services. Quote
boyarque Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 I admire you woodsmanship! I can almost 'see' a Salamis class cruiser in the making... Quote
atoyer Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Oh man, that's awesome! Any chance this will be available through SSM? Would love to get one. Quote
neptunesurvey Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Any chance this will be available through SSM? Yes, it will be available through SSM. Quote
captain america Posted March 19, 2012 Author Posted March 19, 2012 Just wanted to let everybody know that I've been without internet or phone service for nearly 2 weeks and it will probably continue for another week still. I have shipped all orders placed until now but due to circumstances beyond my control, I won't be taking any more orders for these kits. Quote
Skull One Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Mr. Moscato: I want one more kit for me please. Quote
neptunesurvey Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 You will probably have to get it from the Starshipmodeler site when it becomes available. Quote
