Moebius 1/32 scale cylon raider

[Alan 45]

this was a bit of a love affair for myself and this kit , I built the Revell release in the early 80s and I can say this is a much better detailed kit and a lot larger measuring 17 x 14 inches and is said to be a 1/1 scale of ones built for the TV show although not exactly identical


All brush painted with Revell Aqua colours and winton oil paints , the base colour is Revell stone grey and the cockpit and stripes are Revell anthracite grey with Revell mouse grey for the panels either side of the cockpit the weathering is all winton oils , lamp black and burnt umber


The kit easy easy and goes together well but some guide pins need a slight file to get them to go together properly


Here's the pics comments welcome as always [ATTACH]101507.IPB[/ATTACH]

Looks great Alan needs a crusty moon base and a backdrop of stars to really show off your great work on both star war models are not my genre but I can't help myself from loving these well done mate

Very nice Al, great weathering looks massive next to the Viper.

Makes sense though, Cylon, 3 robot crew...so, would be bigger.

Love battlestar but have only seen the new ones. Prefer the old viper ship though.


Good build mate

True and it was a bomber as well , it's just on screen they looked very much the same size

cheers dougie I appreciate that , I agree the ships from the old show look better than the new ones
