Kevin Hoppert – David West Reynolds – Zvezda/Revell – Star Wars WIP – (2020) Scratch-N-Bash 1:2700 Imperial Star Destroyer Cross-Section

This is a work-in-progress scratch-N-bash of a cross-sectioned Imperial Star Destroyer, using the hull from a Zvezda/Revell (1-2700) commercial kit as a shell. The build is based on an illustration in the Star Wars Incredible Cross-Sections book, by David West Reynolds, who I met at Wonderfest a few years back. I just love any cross-section / cut-away illustrations and builds in any genre. The shell is a bit narrower and longer than the illustration and is no particular official Star Destroyer version, but I am adjusting innards to fit as I go. I also carefully and surgically moved back both rear side notches and the port deck turret section to match more closely, and correctly align, to the illustration...

SLY FY Kits & Dioramas/Arnaud Selesneff – Revell – Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith – 1/2256 VENATOR

Hello to all.

Here is my last project was I realized from the 1/2256 Venator Revell kit.

I made various modifications by cutting out the original kit to integrate the upper deck and the bay in the left trench, I also added lights as well as several additions of detail on the kit. For the paintjob I used the paints from Archive-X.

See you soon for new projects, and thank you for reading this article.

Alfred Wong’s 1/24 DIORAMA: “London Crawling”

Here is an alternate scenario where aliens find their way to present day Earth instead of to be found on a faraway planet in the distant future. Here a disparate cast of survivors find themselves banded together on a London tour bus careening through the streets trying to flee an invested city, barely under control and teetering precariously with the group desperately fending off the surging Xenomorphs. The cast consists of a pair of London police constables, a British soldier, various civilians and a movie-nod AR-15 toting action-heroine.

The figures are modified from a variety of sources including Master Box, Tamiya and various unknown figures out of my spares stash. The Xenomorphs are slightly reworked and reposed Konami Alien toys...

Rod Lowe – 1:72 Revell V-22 OSPREY

After a 8 year hiatus, last showing my Millennium Falcon here back in 2012, I have started model making again, this time a Revell 1/72 scale V22 Osprey.

I made some major modifications which took about 300 manhours over 15 months to complete including a detailed interior, internal and external lighting, motorized propellers and additions and changes to the exterior to more closely resemble the actual production aircraft instead of the prototype.

As a finishing touch I created a “challenge coin” out of sheet plastic to accompany the model display.

Regards,
Rod Lowe

Stefan Hacker – Star Wars 1:72 Rebel Hangar Diorama

This diorama by artist Stefan Hacker is magnificent! So much so that we brought it forward from it’s original April 18, 2009 showing date here on Modelers Miniatures & Magic. The details are fantastic, including the “Easter Egg” of the numbers above the door being 1138…. which is reference to George Lucas’s 1971 film, THX-1138. Fantastic work!

Dave Olszewski’s – 2019 Wonderfest GOLD Winner – Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith – Revell 1/83 ARC-170

I’d like to share a build up I did of the 1/83 Revel ARC-170 snap-together kit. I got inspired to build this kit after seeing how a game-piece miniature was painted (I included a pic of the game-piece being referenced). I liked the asymmetric color scheme of the game-piece, so expanded on that scheme for the painting and weathering of the model. I scribed several additional panel lines that were not on the kit, I modified the upper and lower rear gun placements with scratch-built details; and, I added a few ‘greeblies” at the engine / wing root. The model won a gold at the 2019 Wonderfest show.
