    USS Sulaco / Aliens

    This is truly an amazing acomplishment. I can't believe it's been 4 years. On a side note I thought you should know it was because of how inspiring your builds are that I got into the hobby and eventually started creating my own!

    BatWing '89 / 1:32 / Ing. Spendlik

    This thing will be impressive once its complete. The skeleton alone already looks really cool. I can't wait to see the outer skin start to go on.

    My next Mech Build

    Yeah the yellow mechs main fuselage was a nightmare because of how conical everything was. This mech was more cubic, though it had alot more greebles. Not as bad as a Y-Wing though. I dont know if I would ever do that again and I still cant believe you are doing two.

    Looks like they are coming along quite nicely. It must feel good now that you have a whole side complete and are moving on to the next.

    The model has been moving along pretty quickly. I finished the upper and lower torsos. I am using bits of wire in addition to paper to add some of the detailing. Now to move on to the legs.

    My next Mech Build

    Have another update on the progress today. I have most of the main body done now. I still need to add some accent pieces but Im about 97% there. After this I will start work on the lower torso. I will say I am beginning to have serious doubts whether the mech will be able to stand on its own. I...

    Building my own Y wing(s)

    Having painted many models I can assure you the paper is far more durable than you would expect, especially after putting on all the little details. To add the mounting rod for my Y-wing I had to get a dremel out by then end. That said I tend to prefer brush coating over spray cans in most...

I finished the hatch looking portions on the back of the model and did some detailing. Right now I am debating if I even...

    My next Mech Build

    After building the Catapult from Mechwarrior Online I wanted to build another mech. This time its from the online game Hawken. It's a fun mech game that has a strong action focus and I love the art style. Thanks to the help of some people on this forum I have learned how to create orthographics...

    Building my own Y wing(s)

    I am loving the greebling. Just be careful not to go insane making all those pieces :) Also have not seen your snow speeder in a while. Is it on hold?

    Aliens POWER LOADER 31,5 inches

    I think "little update" is a bit ironic :) Your progress looks great.

    Yes, another TARDIS...

    Can never have too many TARDISes. Looks great and I love seeing people make all the details 3D. Do you plan on overlaying a woodgrain texture to your images?

    Building my own Y wing(s)

    The pringles cans are a clever idea and make for a fun story. If your concerned about the size you might also look into packaging tubes for blueprints and artwork. They come in numerous sizes and you may find one the exact size you need.

    Aliens POWER LOADER 31,5 inches

    Very impressive build. I love that Power Loader model and it looks just as good scaled up.
