Studio Scale Shuttle Tydirium

February 16th, 2010

Here’s a build up of the Shuttle Tydirium I’m working on from Star Wars Return of the Jedi. This is in studio scale, meaning it’s the same size as the model used in the film.

Here’s a visual of the electronics. I’m still figuring out uploading video and editing sound etc., so I apologize for the low quality.

Miniature Trek: USS Sagittarius in 1:350 Scale

January 8th, 2010

vanguard_3_hot_pursuit_r02From the cover art of the Star Trek:Vanguard novel Reap the Whirlwind by David Mack.  With the help of the ship’s designer, Masao Okazaki, I scratchbuilt this out of poplar, styrene and bondo to make a master that was molded in silicone, then cast in resin.

I did something different this time with the decals;  using a snap shot of an office building taken at night , I made the window decals for the model, giving  them the appearance of inner detail including chairs, tables and even plants.

Ship designed by Masao Okazaki for the Star Trek: Vanguard book series
