Klingon Bird of Prey

[spaceagent-9]

I wanted to start a thread devoted exclusively to this ship.
pics from the movie are ok, models, mods, all kinds.
I have noticed that there are a few Romulan birds of prey that resemble the kbop.
also I noticed that there are 2 color schemes. green and reddish orange, and steel grey and black.
maybe 3 sizes, scout, battle cruiser and stng too fricken' huge to believe.
lego kbops are welcome.

Looking forward to the pics. Hopefully it will be a great visual resource for the now classic Bird of Prey which was first introduced in Star Trek 3 "The Search for Spock".

Yes, when picture uploading is restored, it would be nice to have a bigger picture. I do apologize about this whole thing, it is quite beyond my control, but I feel responsible for some reason, maybe because I want you all here........................

This is one of the most gorgeous ship designs in SciFi history!

I love the paint on the movie prop in the first photo in the bunch! That is just gorgeous! The Metal Earth model is a mastery in design..laser cutters have made impossible things possible!

I had never seen pictures of the interior before. You can make those tin models with your Cameo cutter. The Carbide bread will pop right through the tin. Opens up possibilities.

All hail metal earth!!! Great model! Metal the next evolution of design. I don't see why you couldn't take any paper model template and use a laser or water cutter on a metal substrate (steel, aluminum, or the like) to make whatever you wanted.
