When Mike Salzo released the V-2 Studio Scale X-Wing, I was so completely excited that I purchased 3 sets of parts from him immediately! I envisioned a trench scene large enough to have all three studio scale X-Wings within it. This diorama was also to have Vader (with his two Wing-men) in pursuit, and it was to be about 50 feet long, embedded into the floor of the display area that people may walk over it’s heavy glass top. At that time, Modeler Magic was to be opened in Las Vegas. Alas… 2008 was a tragic year on many levels for everyone… and this placed the Modeler Magic Gallery on hold. At that time, Model Maker R.L. Bleecker was doing many amazing works for me, and he took on this beautiful V2 X-Wing...

Collector Michael Kuehner must be smiling ear to ear with these two magnificent Battlestar builds by Nick Sainton-Clark. Built from the 37.5 inch Salzo half studio scale kits, Nick had originally been the artist who assisted Salzo make the parts the correct scale for the kit, thus he knows this kit like the back of his hand. Beautiful work!!

I wanted to drop you some images from a commission I’ve been doing for a client in Germany, Michael Kuehner. The project was to deliver 2 of Mike Salzo’s half scale battlestar kits. However, in order to add extra detail and authenticity I’ve added a large amount of extra parts which are derived directly from the original kit parts...
