    Battlestar Galactica Viper

    Working on a Mego sized Viper for my custom Battlestar figures, and this is what I have so far.




    If I can figure out how to make a decent canopy for the cockpit now I'll be all set.

    That's five kinds of badass there. Those figures are awesome too. I don't remember seeing those posted here. Great stuff.
    I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

    If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

          For the canopy I would suggest going to home depot. They sell sturdy, clear sheet styrene. Go to a local hobby store or art store and also get some opaque sheet styrene. Cut out the windows clear and frame it with the opaque stuff. Then paint the opaque framing the color of the fuselage. You may need a special cutting knife tho. Most art stores carry it, home depot might too but in a display case to keep kids from stealing it:

                That's cool, perfect Mego vehicle size, too.

                  The Viper looks great and you were able to retain the Mego look. Keep pushing. It's almost finished.
                  If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

                      Would be nice to see it from other angles. The figure blocks alot.

                              If the interior is as badass as the exterior, this is going to be a GREAT custom vehicle!!
