I still can't quite fathom the amount of time, resources, research and dedication that it takes to make anything on this scale- yet I can surely recognize some sheer modeling greatness when I see it!
Top notch mate!
Thanks there DD. It has been a while. Figured you must have gone chasing them damn geese south during the winter or something. Now with the warmer weather you are back and it's good ta hear from ya again. Yeah this is what i've been playing with. Hope i can keep at it, it's not easy sometimes but then, nothing ever good is either.

Can't tell you how many parts I didn't either have or have ID'd all over this ship when I did mine. I sure miss those days, but I don't have the will that Mike has either to go back and re-doing it. This build just continues to be outstanding, keep up the great work!! You are gonna have one helluva sweet replica when she's all said and done!

Thanks Mate, coming from one of just a few to build one of these means a lot. I wouldn't be getting too fussed about your build, what you did is nothing short of spectacular! Hell it's one of just a few completed SS Battlestars to be ever done and that aint no easy task now. Mike is a tad crazy with what he's done with his but i can't knock him for wanting to achieve what he wants either. It has transformed dramaticly in the years i've known him and all for the better at that. I wouldn't be doing that to yours either if it was mine. For the info you had at the time it was as good as anyone was going to ever get with one. It was the best one of it's time, no if or butts about that! Us builders are so unbelievably fortunate to have the info we have and it's something all of us should be very thankful for. It just wouldn't be doable without it in my case.
