1:72 Moldy Crow by Robin Moore


Artist Robin Moore is back with his build of the JPG Productions kit, the 1:72 HWK-290 Light Freighter “Moldy Crow”. I love the paint job on this piece, as well as the paneled weathering to show wear and tear on the old, very used vessel. Nicely done!

Here is the Moldy Crow background as stated on the Starship Modeler Store description…

The Moldy Crow was flown by Jedi Kyle Katarn and smuggler Jan Ors in various books and games, the most famous being Dark Forces. It is also seen briefly in Episode I: The Phantom Menace flying over Mos Espa Spaceport.

OUT OF PRODUCTION!! 1:72 McQuarrie Concept Viper from Richard Long


Everyone knows what a Colonial Viper looks like, but not many have seen the fantastic McQuarrie Concept other than what we had shown you here earlier when Richard was making this fantastic kit. What a sleek, mean looking fighter this is! I love Richard’s Galactica decal markings he placed on it! These kits are VERY limited at a total of only 7 being made to sell. In other words… HIGHLY collectible! Not to mention… just a bad ass fighter kit! A beautiful job by industry famed artist Richard Long!

This artist is on a roll with these fantastic Ralph McQuarrie designs from 1979’s Battlestar Galactica! Master Artist Richard Long (of the famed Sovereign Replicas) has again created one of Mr. McQuarrie’s designs into a physical model kit for YOU! This amazing kit is highly detailed and will be offered SOON!

Here is what Artist Richard Long has to say of this amazing kit…

A 72nd scale version of Ralph McQuarrie’s concept Viper. I absolutely love this design, sleek and deadly, and larger than the standard single seat version...

1:72 FAUN SLT-50 Elefant by Sean Brannin

This is another fantastic piece from pro builder Sean Brannin!

Here is what he has to say…

The FAUN is fully finished and mounted on its base with cargo. I felt the Luchs was the best overall for it. Adding the cargo meant making the tie down chains and their attachment points on the trailer. The model was entered in a contest back in may and took first place in its category and best small scale armor. I will admit that the competition was small but the other models there were top notch.

Overall a very fun and enjoyable model to build. References are abundant at www.primeportal.net . Many kudos to Revell Germany for tooling this one up. Lets hope they or Trumpeter do a modern Russian transporter. US and UK transporters would be nice too...

1:72 Thunderbolt Fighter from B5 by Kostas Kosmidis

This beautiful Thunderbolt Fighter was built by fantastic modeler Kostas Kosmidis. His use of metalized paint make this piece look as if it were nearly off the assembly line, but then when looking closer at it, has just enough weathering to show it has been used. The more I view this piece…. the more I love it! Another beautiful build by master modeler Kostas Kosmidis!
