I was so inspired by the creation of famed artist Richard Long that as soon as he published the final photos of the piece (SEEN HERE), I had an immediate scene pop into my head that you now see below… I hope you enjoy viewing it as much as I had fun in creating it?!

Built as a one off just to see where his imagination would take him, here is the fantastic and re-imagined Klingon D7/K’Tinga that Richard Long created! Originally thinking it would be in 1:350 scale, it became clear very quickly that this beast was MUCH larger and is now considered to be built in 1:650 scale...

This magnificent piece is nearly complete as Richard finalizes the lighting and is finally able to assemble it into it’s final form! All that is left (after the lighting) is adding the pylons and nacelles that will tip this piece into full Klingon mode! This piece screams KLINGON WARRIOR! The next time you view this piece it will be the final shots for it to be sold to some lucky collector out there. So if you are interested…. get those PayPal accounts ready to click! REMEMBER…. THIS IS THE ONLY ONE OF THESE BEING MADE IN THIS SCALE OF THIS DESIGN! That stated… UNIQUE… and RARE are two words to best describe it. Richard has even been approached by a few Star trek Gaming Companies to utilize this design in future electronic games! This design is simply stated… FANTASTIC!

Another great update from Richard Long on his re-imagined K’Tinga Design. Now the Nacelles and Pylons are finished, with that fantastic green glow on their interior sides, this piece is due to be finished very quickly! I understand that there are several Collectors, like myself, now interested in obtaining this fantastic piece that is a ‘one off’ in this scale. I wish my fellow collectors luck!

Here is another fantastic update to Richard Long’s re-imagined K’Tinga! I LOVE THIS PIECE! It is truly one that deserves the attention of the Studio and Director producing the new Trek Films! These belly photos really show how much Richard is keeping to the “Klingon” Look while bringing the piece into the re-imagined world… and alternate timeline of the new films! Richard is doing amazing work! The Collector his get’s this piece is going to be a VERY lucky person. Richard has arranged for me to be able to take Blue Screen photos of this piece before he let’s it go. I am excited!

And for the Belly…
Along with all of the amazing and fantastic projects famed artist Richard Long is working on, this one very much intrigues me. I have always loved concept and re-imagined designs and this re-imagined K’Tinga is one on the top of my list. It could very well be used for the NEW Star Trek films… and would fit right in with those alternate time-line designs! Completely keeping with the KLINGON traditional look with the Bridge and neck areas, armored panels, and it’s sleek, yet ominous attack presence…...
Read MoreAs stated in the Viper showing, I had originally seen this artist’s site years ago… and was impressed. Unfortunately I was never able to contact him. Upon showing this Battlestar, and Viper that Brain Larsen was creating on the Professional Modeling Board RESIN ILLUMINATI back in 2008, I was hoping to finally get hold of him about his fantastic work. If you are Brian Larsen, or know him, please contact me at chris@modelermagic.com. I would very much like to see more of Mr. Larsen’s creative works.
Now… this amazing re-imagined Battlestar design has been on my radar for years from this fantastic artist. I very much hope to speak with Brian soon.
