I've been sitting on this for months.... since April. It wasn't too long ago I mentioned in my blog wanting to some day build a monochrome B&W build. Lo, it wasn't long before this popped up on my feed.


Found on the "Facebook Scale Modellers Page."   Here's a link for any possible members: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crumblebuilders/permalink/1000943226775481/

Next up, some of you may have seen this meme:




By Shea Walker found on the Starfleet Engineering and Technology" page.

"Ok ladies an gents. Heres a lil funny/ joke ship. Ive made some before. So, that image that keeps going around of a toilet stopper thats a starship...I kept seeing that meme so much...I decided to make it into a starship. After "google lensing" the image, I discovered this image is of a Korky toilet flapper 54BP....thus...BEHOLD.....the U.S.S. Flapper. NCC-4U2P, Korky- Class Federation vessel. This baby has 2x 270 degree arc phasers, a matter/anti-matter Drano drive, and the best janitorial service in the quadrant!!"

Another one of our old mate Stargazer's jobs I think.

That one's just SO modellable too!  :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Indeed, but it doesn't make it look any less elegant  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
