Marvelous Midway Model Made (February 1, 2010)

[ChrisReid]

Challenger sent in a photo of an incredible physical TCS Midway model he's working on. I can't quite tell if it's resin or wood, but the shape looks superb and the detailing already begins to bring the ship to life. We're anxious to see how this one turns out!

​

Heya, I thought this model that I'm building at the moment could be interesting for you at the WC CIC. If you are interested I could send you more pictures.

Best regards from Germany,
Challenger

Neat! I'm pretty sure that's sheet styrene, judging by the material's thickness.

Cool work, Challenger.
I wonder if you'll ever add the big gun to your Midway.

 

[Mekt-Hakkikt]

Very nice! It seems model building is still far more popular than I thought.

Niiice!

Yep it's polystyrene. At the moment I am waiting for some really thin styrene to add a few greebles to give a better feeling for the scale.
I thought about adding the plasma-gun to the carrier but I couldn't figure out how to build one. If I find out how to do it, I will definitely give it a try.
I'm glad you like the model ^^

That's just awesome. Put that on ebay when it's compete, I'd totally buy it.
