This piece was originally shown here on Modelers Miniatures & Magic back on February 17, 2009 and is now updated to today’s showing standard!

Built from a kit (commonly known as the V1) that had origins back to an original pyro model used in 1978’s Battlestar Galactica, artist Sean Sides of Square Models did a beautiful job re-creating this menacing machine as it appeared in the TV Series and 1979 movie.

USS Prometheus NX-59650 Render by Brandon MacDougall


Originally given to me by industry modeler Mark Dickson, and shown here back on October 14, 2009, I learned tonight this fantastic Prometheus was done by Foundation Imaging artist Brandon MacDougall. Brandon’s work in the industry is very noted and one of the reasons we love model designs today. I thought it appropriate to show this again on our front page so that we may finally acknowledge this fine artist’s name.

I wish to thank both Brandon MacDougall and Mark Dickson for sharing this wonderful piece so that artists all around the world may re-create what we have all dreamed since viewing these models in the movies.

Here is Brandon MacDougall’s USS Prometheus as seen in Star Trek Voyager from Foundation Imaging.
