First, this project isn't dead. The problem is, that I'm searching a suitable model. Grale's 3ft Normandy was great, but was canceled. I wrote the Sulaco is too small for the electronics... I build the first 5 groups and must say sign1 This babe is huge. But to build this giant as a prototype...

Due to the problems with this model I sadly give up. I'm not in the mood to run into insolvable problems after building for weeks. With an unlocked .pdo I would keep on trying, but no answer from Grale. I hope he will come back and continue his nice work. Thread can be closed. :-(

I think we should let him rest. Please don't goof on him. Grant him a break and we'll see if he comes back and continues his work. I agree in all terms to Zathros, but I also knew that this model was beta. Anyway I printed it out and started to build it, knowing that there could be problems...

@Zathros: Perhaps you scared him off, but there are rules and to create a papercraft model, it needs more than to unfold a captured ingame model and play around with pepakura. I have no problem to build such a model, when I know to have backup from the creator. What makes me really angry is that...

I will keep on trying to finish the model. Currently I'm building the nose and encountered some problems. It seems that some of the little parts don't match 100%. I assume there're some problems with the alliance color texture. I asked Grale for the unlocked .pdo file. Without it, there's no...

1) Recessed black window sections; Make flush with rest of hull No, because it's not very difficult to build and looks nice 2) Convert all 45 degree angles to full 90 When I finished the hull, I can answer this In my opinion, formers for the hull would be nice. That would make the hull more...

Hmm, at the moment she's a flabby piece of paper. But when the whole first part of the fuselage is done, thoughts will flow and you'll see :-)

Go to Menu Settings -> Texture Settings. In the new window point the four Textures to the according files in the Alliance Color-folder.

reached 100cm, impressive :twisted:

Oh yes, Pepakura says, she will be about 120cm :mrgreen::thumb:

She's growing slowly, 63cm so far:

Thanks, I started with the easy looking parts. There are no assembly instruction, so I often must have a look to the pepakura model. This will decrease speed when it becomes complicated. At it will become VERY complicated I think. :-) Speed is not important to me. A nice looking model is by far...

First of all BIG thanks for this beauty. I started this model yesterday with the alliance collor sheme and discovered an error. This is the correct side: And here you can see a half of the Symbol on the wrong side, should be corrected in the texture file I think:

I started this monster yesterday. As you can see, it will be big:

I built group 1 of the Sulaco and although it's a big ship, with about 13cm width it would be very narrow for the electronics. I will build some parts of the 3ft Galactica, to see the size of the hull and engines. Perhaps I will copy the sheets on A3 paper for the prototype, although it will...

Look here. The creator of this beauty is very busy atm. But he's working on groups 15 & 17. I read somewhere that the model will be completed this year. So be patient, as we german say: "Good thing will take time" (or in English: "Haste makes waste") ;-)

I gave my wife two choices: A submarine or a Tri-/Hexacopter based on the TNS-Cylon-Basestar. Her answer: "Then build the submarine, it can't be destroyed due to a crash by wind or similar. But the resin-shit, you'll make at the balcony, no matter what weather!" I thought:"Ok, I will NOT tell...

The upper arm parts are ready. This time without waving the paper :cool: It will be a nice, big thing: Yes, one arm isn't completed and the arms are not glued to the wishbone, just to see how big it will be. And we see: about 74cm! Nice :twisted: Next parts: lower wishbone (I'm scared of...

Thanks all. @Zathros: Maybe it looks organic, but there's nothing more mechanical than a damned Toaster-Basestar :mrgreen: Due to several problems I totally messed up the lower wishbone center wall1 1. I used the wrong glue It hardens fast, but not too fast, nice to use. But it waves the...

Project cancelled. It's much too expensive and I don't have appropriate tools for it. Also my wife would kill me if I stink around with resin at home. :mrgreen:
