Well....I don't know about that my friend, but thanks! I really appreciate that. :) I am just a lowly Padawan learner, lots of trial & error, experimenting, & good advice & tips from my fellow zealot friends. ;)

In my defense, I didn't see that busted joint till after I'd already posted the pic. It is much smaller in real life. ;) Thanks for the advice though. :) Also, I don't know what I tapped, to mess up my response to your last message. After I typed it, I wondered where the message went. I was...

I love it! That model is looking awesome!:Bravo: I only hope my own build of the Defender will look half as good as yours when I get to building it. Your patience really shows in the excellent quality of work. Thanks for the new pics! :)

Haven't done much on the Geminon Traveler in the past few days, but did get these 3 additions on the rear of the ship. Going to work on the left & right engines & mounts next.

I like your suggestion of using Crazy Glue with dental floss or thread, I'm definitely going to experiment with it. If you haven't seen it yet, check out the 12 page Cylon Basestar PDO download here on Zealot. I think it's on the very last page of the BSG downloads. I'm still trying to figure...

Thanks space agent-9! I first saw the complete fleet hanging in a local hobby shop, & shortly after just happened to stumble upon those ships on Stevespaper.com. I heartily agree with you about embracing changes, I was just thinking that in regard to all the new DC movies & TV series as well as...

& here is a pic of the rebuilt upper engine for the Geminon Traveler. My previous engine build really looked awful because I used carpenter's wood glue & it yellowed everything. I was new to paper modeling at the time. Much happier with this one. :)

This evening, just adding a few little greebles on the topside of the Geminon Traveler. Nothing fancy, just some doubled-up parts. I'm going to add some on the sides, bottom & back too.

Thanks! I have plans for a space backdrop as the fleet progresses. Just in the upper 2 feet of the wall. & maybe some strategically placed LED lights for effect. But, we'll see. It's hard to find the time to do all that I'd like to do with these models.

Thanks Zathros! :)

Here is the ragtag fleet so far. The Galactica(2003) & Galactica(TOS) in front. With colonial shuttle, Berserk Battlestar, & Battlestar Pegasus bringing up the rear. Soon to join the journey are the Geminon Traveler & the Celestra. Planning to post some progress pics for those 2 very soon.

Thanks Skyseeker,I do have a pair of tweezers, but admittedly forget I even have them at times. :headbange:

Thanks! I think I still messed up pretty good a second time on that front section though. But, I think I can clean it up with a little patience. It won't be my best model I've assembled. I've had some frustrations with it, not from any design flaw, but from my own fumbling fingers. :( I'll keep...

Just a few pics of my almost finished model of Jaybat's Galactica. The glue is still drying, & I have yet to clear coat it.

Thanks! I'm not sure how it's going to turn out. Hoping for the best, but I am experimenting a lot with this one. I just got the engines cut out, hope to have some progress on them soon.

I think the fuselage buttoned up pretty nicely, I do still have some fine tuning around the edges to do. Adding the little foamboard panels I think will beef it up pretty good too. Now to move on with the engines & some greeblin'! :) Trying to stay hooked up on this model till it's finished...

& & then things got weird!

Successfully transplanted the cockpit from my previous build.

Decided to make my own tabs this time around. For around the cockpit & the prow. Hope they work out.
