Hello everyone! It is well to see Modelers Miniatures & Magic again showing new content! Thank you to Chris Dye and his team!! I am pleased to say that I too shall be adding to what will be shown.

Just before I retired from Modeler Magic (back on May 31, 2021), I received a few new kits to unbox, not having the opportunity to do so until today. I am excited to do so, especially now that MMM is running at full speed once more.

I am pleased to show a kit that has been out for months now, yet still is highly anticipatory to many model builders and fans alike. From Dynamic Digital Creations, we have the 1/1930 BSG-75. In the title I state it is “half studio scale” only because it is to scale with the half studio scale Battlestar Galactica TOS Kit that Mike Salzo had released years ago now...

This piece was originally shown here on Modelers Miniatures & Magic back on February 18, 2009 and is now updated to today’s showing standard!

Replicating the CG Model digital artist Eric Chu designed for the 2003 mini-series and TV series Battlestar Galactica, artist Sean Sides of SQUARE Models did a magnificent job!

Original design by Battlestar Galactica’s Eric Chu for the Production of “13”, (with length and design tweeks by Eric, Tobias Richter and myself),… artist Garry King built this beautiful design out of LEGO’s!! Garry… you are an amazing artist! Absolutely beautiful!!

I have finally completed all the editing for the Battlestar and here are a few for you. You can do all the write up about the story line behind the model.

However there are 100000 plus people who have seen this model while it traveled Tasmania, it has been on local television and papers each time it got displayed so many are hoping that there will be a new and inspiring movie. It has one last exhibition to go to so the numbers of onlookers will increase greatly.

To contact this artist direct, plea...

I have to say that I am both thrilled and honored that artist Garry King would build this 13 Tribe Battlestar (currently named PHOENIX for reference. This will change). Designed by both myself and famed Galactica designer Eric Chu, then a digital build started by famed Digital modeler Tobias Richter, this design is still in it’s infancy for the future production named “13”. This production takes us to the beginning of the BG Saga (1000 years before the TOS version of 1978), revealing to us all why the Colonies were formed, why the Cylons began to hate humans and want them exterminated, why they are only Robots now, and the story of that famed missing Tribe… the 13th Tribe. We also see the first build of the Colonies Battlestar, which is the famed design we are all familiar with...

Artists Alexander Rivera and Eric Chu have teamed up to produce a number if models of the FS-1 Flying Sub in time for 2012 Wonderfest! Below are the main orthos for that model that Eric penned.

Direct from Alexander…

The model will be 1/32 scale, fiberglass hulls with resin details, lights and motor propellers. A run of 25 will be produced on an order by order basis. This will be a finished collectible, ready to display. For information please e-mail me at falcondesigns@aol.com

Yesterday I received an email from the amazing artist who designed the Ron Moore GALACTICA as well as a few of that shows other designs… Mr. Eric Chu. Among them was the design that only saw screen-time once in RAZOR…and was destroyed… the Battlestar Berzerk! His email showed me, and a few others something I never thought I would see, and yet… something that would bring me back to 1979…when I did the same thing. Albeit much better than my 4 foot 1979 build of the Galactica….. artist Garry King created the Battelstar Berzerk with LEGOs! And thus has sparked an entire new area for this gallery of amazing pre-fab block and material art works...

This short film is fantastic! Sent to me by the designer of the Ron Moore Battlestar Galactica, artist Eric Chu, this has to be one of my favorite fan made sequences! I recognize some of the Battlestar designs as being for our shown artist TAN.J… who is a fantastic artist. In order to give proper credit to ALL who created this masterpiece, if you worked on this, please email me at chris@modelermagic.com. Kudos to Battlestar VFX for showing the video! Outstanding work! Let’s see how many views we can add to this…. starting at 163 as I added it.
