I wasn't sure where to post this, but you modellers and fans will appreciate this.
Titon will know one of the names involved in the construction very well!

Nice work on this viper.

I wouldn't mind having one of these and do a more TOS-inspired paint job just to see how it would look. I never really liked the stark white paint with the dark maroon stripes. I do like the design though.
That is some really nice detailing on that model - you can tell a lot of hard work went into it.
I love when someone has a creative outlet to express their connection to BSG, be it new or old!
Best,
Bryan

Wow, that's some crazy good work there.  It's wild to think that we live in a world where the technology and online communities exist for people to make and share things like this.

It's incredible. The most diverse suibjects are being replicated. There are people who make Batsuits like the ones in the original Batman and Batman Returns. Others are interested in recreating the robots from the Black Hole.
The attention to detail and skill level is stunning.

Yep I would have to agree with the level of detail being amazing, the paint and texturing is awesome as well. he even buffed out and removed some of the paint on the metal luvers on the engine which totally gives it a metal feel . . .
thats a shinning example of a good eye . . .
nice post peter.

Oh, now that is just *beautiful*.
From the engine cones to the cockpit, the detail level is just fantastic!

Looks gorgeous.
Building a kit like that is WAAAAy out of my league. I haven't built a model of anything in years. Hoping to get back into it this winter.
