My 350th scale Soviet Freighter

[Sisko]

Been out of the loop for awhile.

I occasionaly lurked around here, but I decided it is finaly time to post something.

This is my latest project which is nearing completion. It certainly qualifies as a Sci-Fi whif.

I like this one.  What did you use in it's construction?

From front to back

Airfix Saturn V parts and parts from my old and dead Aztec air brush. ( I am sure that it would have wanted it this way)
Face cream container
Hair conditioner bottle with 1/350th scale submaine hull glued on top. The underside is a the centre section from the Arado 555 kit
Farrero Roche box with a laundry scoop on top  crowned with 1/72 scale russian tank parts
The side sections are 1/72 scale airfix T-34 kits
The engine is turrets from an Old Glencoe battleship kit and engines from 1/72 Me-262

The rest of the details are from sheets Styrene, etched brass sets, battleship, 1/72 and 1/35th scale aircrarft and armour kits and assorted Sci-fi and rocket kits.

The side panels which add extra armour and heat sinks for the drive section are sheets styrene with 1/72 and 1/35th scale aircrarft and armour kits. They aren't finished yet.

I still have a lot of ariels to add to the main hull.

Yeah I posted it there but then didn't do any thing for about 6 months so the post dropped off the third page never to be seen again.

Glad so many people like it!

You have no idea how delighted I was to return from my own hiatus and stumble across this wonderful piece of Sc-Fi, Sisko! You may have been away, but your talent and skill are very much present.

Wow, that's so fantastic! It looks Soviet...big, bulky, ungainly, box-like, and that shade of utilitarian proletariate green? Perfect!

And, to top it off, you found a use for that Roche box. I've had one for years and never thought to incorporate it into something as cool as this!

Agreed.
And the last pic look so promising.

I have been a long time admirer of your work so that means a lot! I am glad so many people like it.

This project has taken about 8 months of start stop modelling.

Life stuff has been in the way again but I managed to get some paint on the wing assemblies.  I was hoping to take this to Melbourne but that is just a pipe dream now.

Will post some pics soon I promise!

[Sisko]

Well I finished it!
