SinisterVampire319 Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Howdy, Looks great. Any particular scale? Cost? From what I've seen in magazine ads, Monsters in motion can be a bit pricey on things. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmike Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Nice work! Last Starfighter was ground breaking in the use of computer graphics when it came out :lol: Just a little advice, turn your caps button off. Netiquette calls this shouting! :) MikeJ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
venom1 Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 WOW! That is beautiful :o I have always loved the Gunstar. I would definately be interested in getting my grubby mitts on a good kit of one, as long as its not to restrictive in price of course..... Nice work!

Jay Chladek Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 The pics look like the old Gunstar that was offered by MIM about 5 years ago (of which I have one) right down to the stand. Is that the same kit with some tweaks? Only previous change I was aware of was going from a solid casted model to a hollow cast one to cut the weight down as the original could be classified as a deadly weapon since it was so heavy. ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kenobi1125 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 It is the MIM model that Randy patterened. And a great kit at that. it's gotta be about 1ft sq. so pretty massive. Randy added lights and a few extra details (rails around the back guns are one) I've been itching to put mine together, I've had it for a year or so, it has to be one of my favourite Sci-Fi ships of all time, so I don't want to screw it up.

Juanjo D. Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Wow Randy! You're my hero! I cant believe the impressive building an painting level in all your work... I've no words... MASTER... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aggressor Supporter Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 WOW, a Gunstar! The Last Starfighter is one of my favorite scifi movies. I too thought the CGI effects they did back in the 80's were awsome that still stand to this day. The Gunstar looks great! I always wanted a model of one, IMO better than many of the Star Wars vehicles. Would be interested in any further info on your Gunstar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
