galactica and milky way 017

The Ralph McQuarrie Concept with a touch of
an over artistic license.

I will say for now this is the final installment
of my tribute series of the magnificent mind and artistry of Mr McQuarrie’s visionary
concept for the models for the greatest tv sci-fi series, Battlestar Galactica.

Now the Galactica has been built in a
similar style to his design. “Ok I did try even if it is not close”. Emulating
his design was to say hard in many ways and a lot of fun giving me challenge
