Hello It has been awhile since I have posted here,I have been busy doing repairs and putting stuff away from my recent move. I would like to share a kit that I got off the auction site. It is a 1/2500 Medusa Class Starship,Excelsior Variant.
It has been tuff getting the kit this far as trying to balance the model,getting the nacelles on top to stay aligned and stay down in place instead of the dropping effect,so I have reinforced it with styrene bits. A pain but what can you do,especially with the humidity and the heat factoring in also.
I am not finished yet,but here is a first glimpse at it:

It was built by VirtualScratchbuilder. This model is totally made from Balsa,from what I was told approximately 176 pieces and some cardstock also.
This is totally handcrafted and is a nice addition to any collection. I have added a metal rod and wood plaque to make a display stand. Here is a picture:

I apologize to all I have upset in the past and I have a special apology for the 2500 forum on my blog:
http://saiyagohan.blogspot.com/I am from the heart sorry,and it is my hope to put the past behind me and move on.
