Klingon Bird of Prey

DSC_1187

This amazing build of the Klingon Bird of Prey is a replica of Commander Krug’s vessel as seen in Star Trek III – The Search for Spock. Every detail of this model has been painstakingly replicated from the exact kit parts used in creating the original. Aluminum armature included, with your name inscribed in Klingon text upon it, this piece is built to last the ages. This piece will be made only a few times before it’s retirement, so do not miss out. Number 1, the BOP in these photos, went to world collector Clay Brown, while the second is currently being built for the Kuhn Global/Modeler Magic Collection.

Studio Scale ST3 Klingon Bird of Prey build BEGINS by Dan Grumeretz for the Kuhn Global Collection

Artist Steve Neisen has come through again with the delivery of the 3rd cast Studio Scale Klingon Bird of Prey.  This was made just before his contract with Chronicle and only 5 were made. Now that the parts are ready to go, artist Dan Grumeretz will begin on this build post haste. This is one of my favorite Star Trek designs and this will be a dream come true. Thank you Steve Neisen & crew that made this happen. You know who you are! Dan and I are drooling over this model as the parts are so crisp and clean, it looks better than most styrene kits! Outstanding!!

TESTED Interview with Steve Neisen RE: Upcoming EFX Y-Wing Replica

Adam Savage and Jaime Hyneman are well known for their works in as Mythbusters, not to mention their extensive FX Industry works in Hollywood! Their site TESTED just interviewed known model maker Steve Neisen (owner of NICE-N Model Designs) whom is getting together an part for part (accurate to the original filmed studio models in 1977) Y-Wing replica that EFX will soon be releasing! Interviewed by Norman Chan, here is what they said…

Replicating the original 1/24th scale “hero” model for Star Wars’ Y-Wing is no easy task, but eFX Collectibles has taken it on. With over 15 years of research, model makers have identified almost all of the individual model kit parts that went into kit-bashing the film model...

Building the Studio Scale Klingon Bird of Prey by NICE-N Model Designs

Artist Steve Neisen of NICE-N Model Designs has forwarded this art form more times than many realize! He brought us many of the studio scale kits we enjoy today, and continues to do so with his next offering…. the studio scale Klingon Bird of Prey! That is right… Commander Krug’s vessel as seen in Star Trek III – The Search for Spock, and Star Trek IV – The Voyage Home! The beauty you see being built here is going into the Clay Brown Collection and orders for these can now be taken! Realize the cost of such a kit, however, is quite astonishing until one actually looks ate what it takes to create and build it! So don’t be shocked with an inquiry! I can say this is TOP NOTCH model making, and Steve is doing a great job! Enjoy the photos!

Studio Scale Lambda Shuttle by Daniel Beck

Star Wars Return of the Jedi

Studio Scale

Lambda Shuttle Replica

Daniel Beck built this fantastic Studio Scale Tydirium! What is fantastic is that Daniel previously modified the Hasbro toy to be studio-like! Now you can see how close he came to the original with them sitting side by side!

This is the Nice-N Models Studio Scale Shuttle. Its not with that amount of Electric like my Hasbro Conversion but also a very nice Model.

Here you can see a Video of the Effects:

And here is the WIP:

It’s in German, but with a lot of Pictures…The Pictures with the second shuttle is my Hasbro to show the Differences of both.

Hope you like it.

Studio Scale Shuttle Tydirium WIP’s by Dan Grumeretz

The Studio Scale Tydirium Kit began life with artist Niel Ellis, transferring to artist Richard Long to eventually be kitted and now sold through NICE-N Models. Three of these ended up in Dan Grumeretz’s hands and two of them are being built for the collections of both Michael Plante and the Kuhn Global/Modeler Magic Collection! The one you see in the video is the Kuhn Global build. The Plante build will feature a full cockpit interior and landing gear that emerges and retracts with the wings folding up or down. Dan Grumertez had nailed the look of this replica to the original. The lighting you see in the video is actually test lighting for the lighting which will be installed by Dan from HYPERDYNE. Even the proper KOOL SHADE was used for the front intake! Outstanding!
