CLONE WARS Republic Star Destroyer by Chris Kelley


Fantastically built from the Revell kit, professional artist Chris Kelly just finished this commission for a lucky collector. His paint detail is amazing, and rally give this model the depth of realism it needs to really bring you into the piece itself. I would love to see Chris do one of these in a larger scale… say… 3 to 6 feet. I can’t imagine what detail he would add then. It would be glorious! This piece is beautiful!

Collector Alert!! 1:24 X-Wing “Red 5” by Chris Kelley


Built from the original Captain Cardboard kit (Atomic City Models), professional artist has made this piece a near perfect replica of the RED 5 Studio Model used in Star Wars – A New Hope! This truly is one of the best RED 5 paint jobs I have seen to date. And… Chris is offering to build TWO MORE for any Collectors wanting to have a beautiful replica for their display. Chris even placed the smoke colored glass in the canopy just like the original model that was first displayed by this Gallery HERE. Plus, the mirrored base and metal plaque make this a true museum display! A stunning piece of work!

To contact Chris Kelley direct regarding this Kit, please click his banner link below…

CHRIS_KELLEY_290X50

I am extremely anxious for this fantastic kit’s release. Chris has been working extremely hard to get the detail accurate for the Return of the Jedi version of the Blockade Runner. Many don’t realize how different it is. It has side guns… a different paint scheme, and even different gun mounts and detail. Here are the most recent photos followed by reference of the actual studio model Chris is using to replicate it’s details…

SOLD!! Studio Scale X-1 Museum Display from Chris Kelley


SOLD!!

This beautiful Museum display was recently offered by Chris Kelley. All the regular winged displays have been sold, however there are two ‘damaged’ wing  versions still left. They were replicated to look like the Vader TIE after his collision with his wing-man in Star Wars – A New Hope! Placed on a Death Star paneled base, and covered in a beautiful clear acrylic case, this studio scale piece is now in the hands of a lucky collector from Wisconsin, USA. If you are lucky, you to might be able to get one of the ‘damaged’ wing versions before they too are gone forever. I am telling you… as regret is something I have faced in many collection decisions because I waited. Don’t miss this one! To view the Damaged Wing version, please click HERE.

SOLD!! Studio Scale Vader TIE Fighter X-1 REPLICA’s from Chris Kelley


There are only a few of these being offered…. I can’t imagine they will last long! Fully professionally built and detailed as the “Damaged Wing” Vader Tie (as seen in A New Hope), there are ONLY three of these available to the public. They each come with an ICONS Style Death Star Paneled Base, with a professional metal plaque and a clear acrylic case! This museum quality piece is rather large at Studio Scale! Mr. Kelley has informed me he has 2 of these ready for delivery as I type this, with the third nearly completed. This is a great offering for three very lucky collectors!
