The Seeker is an excellent kit From Larson’s Designs / Lunar Models! I hollowed out the back engine and added three LED lights for the engine effect. I did a little bit of weathering to make it more realistic looking…and not so pure clean like the TV show. I have a fetish for weathering models.
Thanks again!

Karl Southcott has collected some “gem” pieces in the past, and this is no different. His collection continues to be unique and fantastic with this build by artist Stephen Kundrat of the ARGO…. the time machine in Time After Time!
Read MoreJust got some pics from the latest commission build I’ll be receiving from Stephen Kundrat. It’s a 1/12 scale ARGO Time Machine from the film, Time After Time, starring Malcolm McDowell. This was another spectacular 100% scratch-build from Steve. The film, as you know, was directed by Star Trek: The Wrath Of Khan’s Nicholas Meyer.
By the way..A little trivia from the movie. Warner Brothers hadn’t released a film using their iconic ‘shield’ logo for several years before Time After Time...
Collector Karl Southcott is in for a treat with this build by Steve Carricato of the Space 1999 Eagle!

Karl Southcott now owns a beautiful build of what we saw in the beginning of Star Trek III The Search for Spock! The battle damaged Enterprise as it entered the Space Dock to be repaired! These photos are of the starboard side that is rarely remembered as also being damaged in the Mutara Nebula Battle with Khan, yet is was! Famed artist Marc Elkins first built this as a static model from the Polar Lights kit. When Karl Southcott purchased it from him, the piece went to another famed artist, Sean Sides, to be made into the battle damaged beauty! Some great work by amazing artists for a fantastic collection!

Artist Steve Carricato has returned with this possible kit, derived form his restoration of an HL-10 model for the Karl Southcott Collection!
Read MoreI just finished the Prototype of the 6 million dollar man spacecraft. The one you see is a model from someone who scratch built in 1975….years ago! Karl Southcott had me commission a new kit which I am scratch building for him. Then once done I will mass produce the kit once I have finished one for him. He had a friend whose father actually worked on the real HL-10 lifting body for NASA . It’s been his father’s model for years until he passed on. So Karl had me restore it back to its original look. He gave it to me in pieces, so I restored it by completely rebuilding it and painting it as it was originally...
Close Encounters of the Third Kind was one of those fantastic films that inspired the ways of film making today! Stephen Kundrat did a magnificent job in creating one of the aliens seen toward the ending of that film… “Puck”. It is speculated that “Puck” was Richard Dreyfuss’s character transformed for space travel… especially after Steven Spielberg released his “Director’s Cut” showing Dreyfuss getting some sort of shining light showered upon him from within the alien vessel just before “Puck” emerges from the ship to signal Francois Truffaut the infamous sign language for the 5 musical notes we all know so well from the film. My babble of the film aside…. THIS sculpt of “Puck” is fantastic… and graces the Karl Southcott Collection.
Out of the hands of famed artist Jeff Pollizzotto and into the known collection of Mr. Karl Southcott this fantastic piece has gone! And what a magnificent piece it is!
Read MoreBuilt from the SFSM vacuum form kit, this build was a collaboration between Karl and myself to do something a little different to the standard Stargazer ship. As much as I like the Stargazer design (it’s a love/hate relationship for many fans) I felt it needed some upgrades to improve the basic design.
Always a question in my mind was: Why is there no forward deflector dish? Most other Trek ships are equipped with one so I had to add it. The logical (sorry) location is at the front of the saucer so out came the hanger bay and in went the dish. A big improvement.
The other area that I wanted to change were in the engine nace...
