Buck Rogers/Battlestar Galactica Star (Thunder) Fighter
Greetings to all and to all hello,
I know it has been awhile sense I have posted a model here, so here is my latest build. It is Martin Saengers Thunder Fighter that I have recoloured in BSG colours. I did get permission form him. Here is both the request and responce. Quote: Originally Posted by Rhaven Blaack Thank you. As soon as I am done with it, I will post the finished model. Would you like a copy of the recoloured sheets for your own collection? Quote: Originally Posted by Martin Saenger Hi! No problem, you can show your recolored TF. But, as you already said, please do not publish the sheets. Regards Martin Quote: Originally Posted by Rhaven Blaack As you know I built your thunderfighter awhile back. I have recently recoloured it in BSG colours (just to add to my own collection. I was wondering if it would be OK with you, if I posted it, once I built it? I of course would give you credit for designing it, and NO, I would not Upload the recoloured model sheets. (if some one wants one, they will have to do the work of recolouring it.), Like I said, this is ONLY for my own collection. If you would like, I can email you a copy of what I have done. Thank you and kind regards. (FOR THOSE WHO ARE READING THIS, PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME FOR THE RECOLOURED KIT. I WILL NOT RELEASE IT TO ANY ONE EXEPT FOR MARTIN SAENGER HIM SELF. SO PLEASE DO NOT ASK!!!)          As you can see (unfortunately not that clearly I have left Martin Saengers registry mark on the base of the stand and I also put on the stand that he created it and I recouloured it. I tried to get a close-up shot of the cockpit canopy (unfortunately it is not that clear) where I have put the name of my mother as the pilot. The reason for this is because it is an "In Memory Of" model. My mother passed away two years ago and she loved both Buck Rogers and BSG. So I desided to build this model for her and put her name as the pilot. I also put some "CYLON SYMBLES" to denote her kills. I also placed my scratch built MK-3 next to it for comparison, and they are both about the same scale. I hope all of you enjoy it.

Nice build, congratulations RB!
And nice touch adding your mum as pilot, I bet she would have liked the gesture.

Thank you everyone for the kind words and encouragement.. It was a fun build and while I was building it, I was thinking of all of the fun times my mother and I had.
Interestingly enough, it was my mother that encouraged me to continue building paper models and to explore the hobby as a whole.

Long time no see. Welcome back. Thank you for the compliment.
As you may know, this was the original design for the "Viper", so I decided to build it in BSG colours and have my mother as the pilot and dedicate it to her in her memory. Quote:
