Ralph McQuarrie was asked to give his impressions of what an updated Enterprise might look like for the 1979, Star Trek - The Motion Picture. This is an attempt to re-create one of his concept models using foam board. I was bored with working on the Micronauts ships and wanted to try something...

I do a lot of modeling in foam board and saw this design on Facebook in the Micronauts group there. This was a proposal for a toy by a designer/artist named Steve Hodges. I like the design a lot and went about making models as close as I could to the design as well as variants. I have no pattern...

Unfortunately I could not duplicate the intake detail at this scale in foam board. I had to settle for black marker.

The Pilot's Seat is far from what was pictured in the painting. Mine more resembles a Trek Work Bee.

The Micronauts collectors tell me these should be smaller. This is one of the smallest I could make.

This was a toy meant for the Micronauts toy line from the MEGO Corp. but was never produced. It is such a quirky design and since it was meant to have inter-changable parts it can be configured i many different ways. This is an attempt to show what it would look like in 3D. These models are made...

The replies here leave me misty-eyed. Thanks Folks! @Revell-Fan, If you could do the cargo-sled from the angles I originally put together that would be great. Really, you should also start an account at Deviantart.com and you can network. I'm sure a lot of people would love to see your...

I am a little late to the party, (about 2 years). Revell-Fan finding out that I contributed in some small part to this has really thrilled me. I wanted to delve into this hobby with both feet but losing my regular job, only getting part-time temp jobs and living with family who wouldn't...

For the Buck Rogers Cargo Sled you can check the Ralph McQuarrie page on Facebook. Apparently it was designed by him for a cancelled Douglas Trumbull project. The original configuration was closer to the ship used in Olympiad - a 1-2 person sled version. Tho I prefer the Buck, season 1 type...

I've been away for a while so I hope this is a new discovery. I was browsing eBay and found these 2 curious stills of Gil Gerard as Buck Rogers sporting another laser gun-not seen in any TV episode. Just thought I'd bring it to the attention of our Buck Rogers laser gun designers: A pretty...

Hey folks! I drew those up after playing around with a lot of oaktag to get the idea of what it would look like. A most difficult ship to figure out because of all the different angles. There's a guy who did a plastic model and he had a different idea for the leading edge of the ship. So my...

Havet'a say Foxbat that is pretty impressive. I like the size of your model and the contours really match the CGI model onscreen. I've only seen tiny resin knock-offs of the ship online and the real model kit company cancelled their Enterprise so there will be no JJ Abrams ships in the...
