Star Trek Into Darkness USS ENTERPRISE Revell model kit 1/500 / USS VOYAGER / 2nd Battlestar Galactica / Blakes 7 Liberator scratch build

Finally got round to updating my blog! it has been left a little neglected, so here are a few models below that I have done since Feb 2015, there are a lot of pictures so please scroll down, please also check out my older posts that have some amazing builds like the Enterprise-D and the Polar lights 1/350 refit Enterprise, not to mention my Oblivion bubble ship model.

This is my 8th build of this version of the Enterprise that was built for a client, this one has additional brass photo etch "Green Strawberry" parts added which include the shuttle bay and warp nacelle bussard blades, I used tiny geared motors to spin them in opposite directions to each other, the impulse engines pulsate too, I also made the base/stand with a Star Trek 50th Anniversary logo.

My first and only attempt at the USS VOYAGER model from Revell, this is the first addition without the added shuttle bay, I added missing detail too such as the life pods and raised ribs by the bridge area, the warp nacelles also are able to move up or level, I managed to source the newer decal sheet from Revell as they are much more detailed than the old ones.

My 2nd Battlestar Galatica model from Revell, apart from the stand and lighting it is straight out of the box, the rear engines have a pulsating effect!

This is my scratch built model of the Liberator from the BBC's Blake's 7 series, it measures 16" long which is bigger than the comet miniatures kit.
