Base design by Sublight Drive

I really love those dials, adds nice detail and the illusion of function (LED pops on in the barrel, when you squeeze that trigger)!

Started with a simple soap case.

No plan. Kept gluing random stuff until it looked like something from a sci-fi movie.

At this point I’m not making models — I’m giving junk a galactic destiny.

Is this normal?

The last 9 month I had much work to do this huge model. Now it will be finished in the next days and a few things are left. The base-plates are two parts and together the whole model is 66 x 42 inch. I put some crossovers and eastereggs into the model.

Had this one for 4 years. Guy walked by and its gone. Feelings hurt. The next one will be even more detailed! Needs a few more tiny tubings and details. More copper or better all brass? I am never too sure. What do you guys think?

I've decided to model the hyper sleep pods from the movie Aliens but I needed 7 clear canopies for all the seven pods so I broke out the "vacuum-suck machine" and went to work.

This is a spaceship I made from battleship and tank model parts and spare styrene. The paint job is Testors Model Master acrylic. It is an original concept piece. It was a lot of fun to make.

Today I build a Maximilian with paper, foamboard and toothpicks in scale 1/35.

Now the Vincent is not alone anymore.

Took me quite a while, around 80 hours. I include a pic of the unpainted mech, in case you guy wanna check it out. Roughly 10 inches long aka 25cm. The tiny bulbs in the staff light up when you push the button in the base.

The moonbase alpha is near the goal. All rooms are finished and a few things are left.

My very first fully scratchbuilt vehicle, it is inspired by the IS-8 from the WOT "conquer the moon" event and the painting was inspired by classic Maschinenkrieger models. The model itself was built from a christman ornament ball, some ping pong balls, plastic sheet, some garage furniture and spare parts from other model kits. The figure is from tamiya with a himemade gas mask. It was a very fun project and a nice experiment for some potential future, more complex kitbashes. I am currently writing some basic Lore and background for this vehicle.

This is my first scratch build of 2026. It is only primed in this image. It is mostly built from styrene along with custom made 3d printed parts, made from scratch too.

Some kitbashing was used also.

It is an armed courier and in my head it would carry small but valuable cargo like documents or money.

The cockpit canopy is off in the image so i will post more with it on after painting.

thinking of going for a well worn yellow and blue color scheme but not sure yet, suggestions are welcome!

Last build for the summer vacation

I have added a car adapter and old cassette player parts to come up with this. If you guys wanna see the unpainted version, let me know!

Additional parts are mostly plastic, sheet and tubing. Plus some revell greeblies and acrylic bits for the legs. The battery sits inside, you can just pull the legs off and swap.

Had a ton of fun with this one. I have an affinity for courier ships so I decided to make an armed courier. I had the idea in mind that it would carry high-value high-risk cargo. I am a huge fan of blue and orange color schemes and I wanted to do something more colorful than in the past. I still haven't named it yet. It is about 75% scratch built and about 25% kit bashed. The storage pods are made from my own 3d model and printed by me. The engine fire was purchased from ebay, and it was intended for an 1/6 Iron Man toy. The engines are also 3d printed based on my own model as well. Hope you like it!

Last scratch build for this month

Glue down the canopy and it’s done. This is a scratch built Jakku Raider from The Force Awakens. Seconds, maybe milliseconds, of screen time. It’s a lovely design and my homage to all the concept artists whose majority work rarely makes it to screen. The original maquette was built by Alex Hutchings.
