My best advice is, get the kit done before we all show up on your doorstep for an "intervention" and demand our kits!!

Ya big tease!

NEW E-BAY ITEM!!!!
Here goes. Am selling a few of these to assist in further supplies for this and other projects. Am about to post final pics tomorrow of the engine thrusters and pilot sculpt! So there!

But here's the link.
http://cgi.ebay.com/Battlestar-Galac...QQcmdZViewItem
Don't know why you can't click on this?? But these are ready to ship know.

BlueSquad2001 · February 15th, 2006, 12:24 PM

Viper Thruster Pics!!
Here it finally is! The much awaited thruster nozzles for this bird.

Actually after looking a t drawing plans after drawing plans, I arrived at this type, which I screwed up a few times, but is great now after learning what was causing me problems. I put it down many times before trying again, and this is cool.

I'll make three molds of this so that each is identical. Besides, I would'nt want to attempt that crap again.

She is ready to ship as soon as these molds are done and as soon as the pilot is complete, which I'm working on and will have pics today sometime.

peter noble · February 15th, 2006, 12:42 PM

Those thrusters nozzles look really cool.

The learning curve on this can only help you with your next project.

Well done!

Best,

Peter

Thank You Peter! And I appreciate the awesome Happy Birthday wish from you! But poor Terri, feels like she was forgotten.

I think the Fleets forgot her birth day,

And yes, that helped me advance a little further in skill. The Raider size and design are being approved by Tom right now. Should have word from him in a day or so.

spcglider · February 15th, 2006, 01:47 PM

Looking good.

I was thinking that the thruster nozzles would have been a little bit bigger to take up all of the space where they are set. Other than that I like, but that just me.

All part of the streamlining. I think it's looking pretty sweet all around!

Aussieviper · February 20th, 2006, 01:59 PM

Hi guys, any more news on the Desanto viper? It's been a few days and I'm going insane. I got the impression they were just about ready to ship- maybe in the next couple of weeks. She's looking better all the time! Cheers, Chris

spcglider · February 20th, 2006, 03:16 PM

Mr. Mike still has a few molding duties to see to. BUT WE ARE ALL EXPECTING TO SEE MAGNIFICENT RESULTS AND FULLY CAST KITS SOON (that's a hint, M....)

BlueSquad2001 · February 21st, 2006, 03:41 PM

NEW PILOT SCULPT PICS
NOT FINISHED!!
In other words, don't try to be too harse before he's complete.

But he's moving faster now. I'm going to do him full body in a standing pose, then cut him at the right spot so that he'll seat in the viper properly. BUT....he'll also be available to order extra to stand next to the viper. But I'm typing this now with a HUGE hole in my mouth where an enormous tooth used to be, and the laughing gas and codiene is still kicking!

But i'm here sculpting on him now.

SciFi Models · February 21st, 2006, 08:25 PM

Nice work Mike!

Really looking forward to the future endeavors that we both know will thrill all the Galactica fans!

And, lets not let any cats outta the bag until we have the ideas finalized.

More on the pilot sculpt soon.
It reall looks cool, the photos are not clear enough on the helmet area.

BlueSquad2001 · February 22nd, 2006, 05:47 PM

HELLO!!!! Anybody here?????

dilbertman · February 22nd, 2006, 07:09 PM

I'm here, but will be gone for the weekend. BTW, here's some info on the helmet.

Things seem to have slowed down and I guess people are dropping off.
I know you had the tooth thing, but people are fickle.
I'm still watching and waiting, I may be quiet but I'm still watching.

later, Barry.

I've got these images Jim.
The sculpt, thugh not finished and add to that not primed, your not visually catching the detail. But the helmet on my pilot is correct.

And thanks for keeping up Barry!

Uh Jim, give me a ring before you take off.

Hello Mike.

It's been a few days since we've seen any updates.
What's new with the viper, are you getting close to a ship date?
Not trying to hurry you along, just need some info.

later, Barry.

I posted some pics about the pilot sculpt, no one but my friend Rob said anything about it, so it's like I post, then you post in a response, then I respond, do you get how this works? And if I get NO responses, then I just don't respond much. So respond more, and I then in turn respond
