SULACO Big scale

[leukirix]

Hi guy's,

Here 2 pictures of my new scratch : Sulaco Aliens return...

I used the small kit of Sulaco 1/2400 for measure and I multiply by 8 !
Like my Falcon, I used plasticard.

For the moment, the first part measure 1m30 (see you the small kit above).

Finish I think it measure 2m50 -8F-

[darkimmitator]

Dude ,....HOLY CRAP ,that thing is huge !!!!

[JAWS]

Holy plasti card that is huge! This will be something pretty special. Thanks Leukirix.

[427 Cobra]

This is a stupid question,but I have to ask - where are you going to keep this when it's finished?

[JAWS]

At my place!!!!!!! hahahahahahahahaahahaha...............................

[79 Daytona]

WOW!! That is so COOL!!!!

[leukirix]

Hi,

Some pictures again :

[LastBattlestar]

Fantastic!

I've been thinking about exactly the same thing in recent weeks. Either that or a 44 inch Eagle...

Thanks for sharing your project with us. Keep updating the thread and take LOTS of pics!

[JAWS]

Mate you don't muck about! That is just insane.

[427 Cobra]

I hope I can catch up! I need to put some speed on it. All you guys buildingt these huge models, and I'm still struggling with parts. This is really starting to come out a lot better than I thought it could. I was never a fan of the Sulacco, but it never showed this much detail in the movie. Excellent!

[leukirix]

two pictures again... and thanks at all for your reply

[LastBattlestar]

Very nice! Does it have a support armature inside? 2.5m long: that's big!

Mike

[leukirix]

Some pictures !

[79 Daytona]

WOW!!!! Looking GOOD!!!

[427 Cobra]

I can't wait to see this finished! I understand that this is styrene, and filler? This is looking very impressive - especially with the photos taken for scale.

[Wombat]

Now thats just sick!!

Holy crap,thats a big sucker alright.

btw,it appears you are doing a fantastic job with it all there,excellent looking build dude!!

[LastBattlestar]

Man, that thing is going to be HUGE!!! I makes the Galactica look tiny!



GREAT job! More pics!

Mike

[leukirix]

Go for other picture !

building engine :




And box :




Big scale ! Really

[427 Cobra]

DAMN!!!! I thought the four foot X-wing was going to be big - but this is HUGE!! I suppose this will end up in a museum sometime soon?

[LastBattlestar]

Wow, it looks like it's a bit bigger than the original!

Mike

[427 Cobra]

I see what you mean, but this looks about the same size when you really study the photos. It's just that the original is lenghtwise, and Leukirixs' is on end. I still can't wait to see this built in all white, then painted to match the studio model.

[JAWS]

This is going to be a truly sick model.

[dbhs]

This is going to be awesome. Coming along pretty quickly.

[79 Daytona]

Man i all can say is WOW!!!! I can't wait to see the another update!!

[Wombat]

Struth!!
You ain't messing around none there now are ya?
Holy shit man,it's bloody amazing how far you've come with this and it's really going to be one fantastic looking piece if the size is anything to go by.It's sure looking good what you've achieved there so far and like the rest here i look forward to seeing some more fine progress with the build.

Thats Bloody Impressive dude!!

[JAWS]

Speaking out of ignorance since I don't know the details on this ship, is this studio-model accurate or are you using greeblies/details that are just in the style of the original? Either way it's an impressive build, just wondering....

[leukirix]

I've not much pictures, just the pictures of modelermagic website... and the small kit of Skynet 1A/2500 scale ! So, not exactly scratch ! Sorry !

The final result should be good ! I hope...
For the moment, i'm in holiday in Croatia.... Sun and beer !
Come back in France and scratch the Sulaco : 18 august !

Ciao :-)

[427 Cobra]

Excellent! I'm very glad to see that I'm not the only one here constructing a behemoth of a model! I love the X-wing engine in the details on the end. This will be great once it's finished. I wonder what happened to the studio model.
