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.

6′ Republic Star Destroyer scratch build

My favorite Star Destroyer from Star Wars Episode III:Revenge of the Sith, this is the Venator Class Republic Star Destroyer.

It will have an aluminum custom frame with thousands of kit bashed parts, fiber optics with a photo etched paint template to accurately capture the look of the CGI version seen in the movie.

Miniature Trek: USS Sagittarius in 1:350 Scale

From 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
