Very cool ship indeed.

Great thanks. When I get some more time, I'll try to see how they fit together with the design I have so far.

You've done an outstanding job on this beauty Zathros. I had been working on modifying the one that Silveroxide did some time ago. The problem I have been running into is the crazy belly of that thing. Even with some pictures of the movie ship, and the resin model, every time I build my...

Hey there Foxmalcolm, I haven't been here on this site for some time, but I was working on the Desert Fox a while back. I still haven't finished the plane yet as there are some little things I need to tweak before it is ready. I have also been in Afghanistan for the last 8 months. I may try...

Looks like they have pictures of a finished model on the parts page when you download the model. I would say it is nice to get a freebie:thumb:, and perhaps with some extra "tweaking":twisted: you could get the plane to look pretty nice. I looked carefully at the pictures they have on the parts...

I believe the parts are shown right up there in his posting in this thread. I got them that way. I just clicked on the picture of the parts, and right clicked to "save picture as". I also saved the plans and finished pix of the model to see where the parts go, although they aren't hard to figure...

Not that I would want to alienate anyone, but it seems to me that although there are these copyright laws, I can't see that any paper model designer could really try to cause trouble for someone who builds their models and then sells them. For example, lets say I download a free, or perhaps...

Welcome to the forum. I'm sure you'll get plenty of inspiraton. I've gotten enough that I had been designing a couple of paper models by hand, (Only used my computer to edit the flat parts, and MS paint to color them). Now I have started to learn to use a 3D modelling program called Metasequoia...

Hi there Chris, aka Airborne82, funny, when I first got into this hobby I myself was over there in Mosul. I ended up building several models, and giving away a few. Some of my most prized models ended up getting shipped home, ( I just couldn't part with them). Anyway, don't hesitate to ask for...

I've designed my models the old old fashion way. I usually just cut out paper, or cardstock and fold/bend parts to get it to look like what I want it to look like. Sometimes I have to modify the piece by cutting out a section, sometimes I have to glue it back on. Then when I get it reasonably...

You know, I've always liked Star Trek, and I have seen all the TOS shows. I liked pretty much all the movies. I really like the newest one. I feel that Abrams has basically given us a chance to see it all again from the original series, yet withh fresh new and a little more acceptable stories. I...

I wonder if that is the same one I have as well. It looks really good, but very different from the movie model. If you search the web, there are two different resin models out there of the Valdore, and one is a bit more accurate than the other, but they are both vastly different than the 3D...

I've been to that site.:cool: There are some really cool little vehicles, including a "hotwheels" size Bumblebee Camaro:thumb::eek::thumb:....really awesome. I could have really used those little armor vehicles when I would teach armor recognition in the military.wall1

Well, I printed my APC out at about 1/12th the regular print size. I also printed the extra "detail" parts for the dropship the same way. I did what I could between my printer setup, and adobe setup to get a size that was compatible. I couldn't say this would work for everyone, but you get the...

Thanks, I'll be sure to tell my psychiatrist:p Here is that first pix again, sorry I couldn't get the marines in the picture, but they said they won't come out unless I stop using the flash on my camerasign1.

This is for those of you who wondered about an APC for the 1:430 scale dropship!! Just in case anyone is interested, I printed out the APC at about 1/12 the original size, along with 3 of the pages for the larger dropship. I used parts of the larger dropship in order to add the ramp, and...

Nobi, you make the most incredible models, and very unique. I especially love the way you put as many parts as you can on one page. I drives me crazywall1 to get a model that is 4 or 5 pages long, but all the parts will fit on 1 or 2 pages. Great work. I look forawrd to trying this one out.

I don't know about those eggs dying off theory. They seemed to be on that derelict for an awfully long time. It just seems that in the first movie, the indication I got was that that other ship had been there for many centuries. So perhaps the eggs would die off after awhile, but it would...

I think the time line fits fine. I have a question maybe someone else could answer. From the first movie on, they never really explain where those pesky aliens came from. The first movie and the second told us that the aliens were "not indigenious" to the planet that they were first found...

:eek: WHOAH that is incredible. I guess I shouldn't be so surprised though, all your work on the site is quite impressive. The other models, especially the dropships are very awesome!!:thumb::thumb: Are you independently wealthy? How can you spend so much time on these? God bless you for all...
