Smile Galaga Space Fighter 1/144 Scale

Well friends, more a handmade model finished.
This time the subject of the fighter is a Galaga classic arcade game of the early 80s. The model was inspired by the sprite of the game and designs of ships from Japanese animes of the 70's and 80 (aka Starblazer and Harlock) was constructed with filecoat paper 120g and painted with acrylic paint, the panel lines were made with nankim ink pen. .. The scale is 1 / 144

Following the line of classic building I'm thinking if the ship from Bosconian game, or a fighter from PC Engine game called Armed Formation F...

Pretty cool. The Galaga ship I remember was like 8 pixels - so this is definitely a heck of an interpretation

I just noticed this... Game models from the 80's is an awesome subject.

Well done on the Galaga model. I'm going to assume you had other views to complete the whole design. Are you planning on a 'Dual' model where a captured ship is recovered for more firepower???

Many people in another board asking about this! And encorage me to try but no plan to realize dual model in the moment. The good news in building a Bosconian Gun Ship and Wanger (Armed Formation F fighter) w/booster...

Cheers!
