Captain Han Solo

So, As a favor to build one of these for a friend, I asked for a model of this craft for myself. This is NOT the old Aurora kit or any of it's reops. It's not the little Moebius kit released some time ago. I do not sell Them. I do not know who sells them/makes them. I was supplied with the kits... I do not know how much they cost. I do know... It was made from files cast off of the actual "HERO" Miniature seen in the series Land of the Giants. I love it because it is dead on...warts and all! It has ALL the flaws and subtle mistakes the original has without someone correctin

Because I wanted to.

No. It's NOT the Grey Green. The upper hull is the same color as the lower front rear of the Nacelles. And the lower hull is the same color as the Impulse deck.

My recreation of a classic promo shot...

AWESOME!

A brief SPFX reel of my 1/350 Refit! Enjoy!

Here's a compilation of my 1/350 SPFX Videos...I have been asked to produce something longer than I usually do, So here it is...ALL with a practical model!

Some beauty passes of my 1/350 Refit build up!

A little fun with both 1/350 Models from Polar Lights!

I am not in a hurry for an interior kit...I have Randy's Larger Galileo with full interior(I think it's posted here somewhere!). He does amazing work, but I will wait for the Round 2 version, from some illustrations I have seen and Talking to Gary Kerr, it's worth the wait!

Many Thanks!

Now that the dull usual tabletop pictures/videos are out of the way...a little fun!!

Many thanks to Gary Kerr in getting the color correct!! Although it wasn’t exactly easy, the upper and lower hull colors HAD to be mixed then lightened a little for correct scale. If you want it like the 22’ prop, you can’t get the colors from a rattle can. The weather has been downcast and rainy, so I took some quick pictures with the sunlight.

Polar Lights has an Interior kit...with Figures ready! IF the sales warrant it. I left my roof removable to add said interior at a later date.

It did on the miniature!

Took a 15 minute break from the bench to get some descent, but boring, Pictures of my 1/32 Polar Lights Galileo build.

So let’s try this again... the Round 2 1/32 Galileo 7 . I reserve the evenings for "me" Build time, so I worked on this. The roof slides off so I can add lights...or an Interior kit from Polar Lights if they make it. The lighted areas will be the rear engine and interior cabin. I painted the model to match the color suggestions on the box and reference material. The paint was Model Master, I mixed them. Even though the hatch is closed in the photo, the lower area swings down and the top is removable. It's tacked in place right now until the decals fully cur

Here are several beauty passes of my Polar Lights Star Trek The Motion Picture Refit. I tried to capture the look and feel of the actual miniature from the first film. The model features the following... Full lighting and sound. Detailed officers lounge. Detailed shuttle bay. Detailed garden area. Painted in the four iridescent colors(Red, Blue, Gold and Green) over a flat white base.

A tribute to the exciting sequence seen in Star Trek II The Wrath of Khan. Using my personal 1/350 Polar Lights Refit build. The model features the four iridescent colors (Red, Green, Gold and Blue) Airbrushed over a flat white base. The model features a fully lit and detailed shuttle bay. The model also features a full lighting package as well as sound. The bridge module was replaced in favor of a more accurate one.
