Great job on your builds Chris. I especially like the Buck Rogers Star Fighter. I used to watch it for the same reason you said that you did...the starfighter. I lucked into two of them about six months ago, two seperate friends found out that I like to build some sci-fi and gave them to me. One was built, the other is still in the box with the wrapper on it. I also acquired the Draconian fighter, a Viper, a Cylon Raider and a small Eagle from Space: 1999.

I was very happy. No problem, you do a great job on your models, I hope I can get even half as good looking ones as you build. Great stuff!

Ok.. You guys must think that I crank kits out like its no tomorrow. But the trueth is, that I usually build about 2 or 3 things at a time.. Or I start to build something, and either lose interest, or find something else that needs attention, and so I move on to that..

Well, here I have the AMT Klingon Bird of Prey.. I started it ages ago, but it sat as alot of my builds do, and so today, I decided to drag it out and paint it.. Well actually 2 days to paint it.. I started it yesterday afternoon.. Anyways, this is where I have gotten thus far...

This is just a time filler build, as my next serious build has been decided, and it will be the 1/144 Revell Space Shuttle and Booster..

It arrived in the mail tonight.. Its a masive box.. The beer can is the large 500ml can, not the small one, and it looks small.. Very impressed with this bad boy!.. It will be done in the name of "Endeavour".. As this was the ship that Cpt James Cook founded Australia... I am after all an Aussie! Wink [;)]

Hey Chris I have 2 not started AMT BOP's no guys I'm not giving them up.back back.(shoving a pointed stick at the crowd of people near by) I think it would be nice to have 2 BOP's in both wing configurations or have them both in attack configuration attacking some hapless Federation starship.

But of course, they could attempt to attack the Enterprise Evil [}:)]

BTW was the 3rd configuration meant as a joke sheesh cloaked configuration all I have to do is build the stand and say the model is done Laugh [(-D] oh well the only enterprise I have in the same scale as the BOP's is my AMT refit Enterprise.

I allways thought it would be cool to have a trasparent BOP kit and feather the paint in to look like its cloaking

I am a man, But I can change. If I have to....I guess...
