AMT Enterprise TOS Bridge built by Manoj Mantri

This build brought back many memories from my youth. The Enterprise Bridge kit from AMT is unmistakable. This wonderful build was done by artist Manoj Mantri of West Wood Models. I only wish we could have shown more close up shots of the panels. Fantastic!

1:537 USS Reliant NCC-1864 built by Manoj Mantri

Built by known artist Manoj Manti of West Wood Works, this piece turned out fantastic! Using the Round 2 kit (formerly the AMT/Ertl Kit), artist Manoj Mantri did his usual fine build work. Even some of the blast work can be seen on the ships hull, on top of Aztec panels…. Nicely done!

Post 5 Year Mission / Pre Refit Enterprise – CG Model by Manoj Mantri

We have seen this artist’s physical modeling work. Now we can see Manoj Mantri is an artist of many skills.. physical… and CG! When I first lay eyes on these rendered JPEGS, I did a double take. My eyes first saw the Refit, but my brain was telling me “NO… it is the original!”. They were both right, and this new design is perfect for what happened between the completion of Kirk’s 5 Year mission… and the Re-Fit that happened years later when Decker became her Captain. I love this design! Not to mention the Space Dock as well! Beautiful work from Manoj Mantri!

Back again with another fantastic build is Japan’s own Manoj Mantri! Showing today is his build of the AMT/Ertl Klingon Vor’Cha Cruiser we all were introduced to in Star Trek’s Deep Space Nine and The Next Generation Television Series. Manoj has this paint job perfectly balanced with color and weathering for this vessel. His lighting is beautifully done as well!

Vulcan Shuttle SURAK by Manoj Mantri

I have the great pleasure of introducing another fantastic artist to this gallery… from Japan, Mr. Manoj Mantri of West Wood Works. His first showing is of the Vulcan Shuttle and Warp Sled as seen in 1979’s Star Trek The Motion Picture. His use of color and paneling effects is beautiful, and so is his photography presentation of the piece itself! I am looking forward to showing more of this artist’s works.
