Klingon Vor´cha Build

[AdmiralGR]

Will be tackling D-WHALE's Vor'Cha now!

 

[AdmiralGR]

Been scorching hot in the UK so sat in the garden and did a bit of building.

 

[mijob]

Thats a good looking ship

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

You are off to a really good start!!!

 

[AdmiralGR]

Small update from earlier. Not to future builders, make sure you read the instructions and put the grills on the correct side the first time round!

 

[THE DC]

Great heads-up tip!


Thanks for the extra direction.


I have always loved Marko's work. His kits are so well crafted.

This model is so good (and avalibe in various colour schemes) I'm tempted to make an A3 enlarged version Another time!

 

[AdmiralGR]

Some Structural Integrity added. Might not been needed but I don't want the disruptor module to sag later on....

 

[AdmiralGR]

Omg parts 50 to 56 are tiny!

 

[D-WHALE]

Just to clearify: this version is a re-re-re-colored version of the original! I recolored the original from turquoise to dark green. then "Christine_U" did a camoflage version from this and "Svarok" used her version and added the red panel.

Funny, because i would ask you, which modul you will use and thought about some magnets.

I just love that there are so many re-coloured versions of this - tho the Hello Kitty one is about out there lol.

Like I said, I think ill go for a larger A3 print another time, it's just so nice. Super work from you sir!

Which modul you will use and thought about some magnets.

Oh that's a cool idea. Maybe for the A3 print veriosn! I'm going with the classic pincer shaped module seen on the series

I love this recolor!! but I am making mine grey possibly green energy ports. magnets are always a good idea, might use 1 magnet and a piece of steel, as two might rip the paper when you pull them off. I had that problem before.

Oh damn, i totally forgot this one! i had started years ago another version in Space Shuttle style, but never finished



BTW "Svarok" builda Vorcha in original size and did some greebeling! not really a different to a plastic model to see, but the model had now approx. 4000 parts, because he added also extra windows etc.

Super work from you sir!

Thanks!
It was my second designed model! The first was the Galor, and that can you feel if you build it! i would now design it different!
dont forget to try the other ships

Klingons as astronauts are not too far-fetched. NASA has a long history of hiring other species for space missions. Proof:

:Grin:

This evenings update. Loving this build

Do you have a link to that?

No. sorry, but "ennder" did the same:

VorCha retextured by Christine - PaperModelers.com

This is D-Whale's VorCha that has been retextured by Christine, I printed 3 copys so I could layer the texture. As you can see, it has a real nice eff

And "Svarok" made the same with the Galor class:

D-Whale's Kardashian, sorry Cardassian. - PaperModelers.com

In the first time, it was a little idea... Mad Idea again......

Wonderful job so far AdmiralGR.

As I said in my thread over there, D-Whale's models lend themselves nicely to the layering method. I just recently finished another Cardassin.
This one I layered as well, though it is hard to tell that in the photos. The lighter color Cardy was the first D-Whale model I built....
I had the idea of layering the different parts when I was almost done with that model, that is why it is not layered.
