Studio Scale BSG Laser turret

    Studio scale BSG laser turret: This project has been in the works for 2 years. ID'ing the kits used was a real challenge. I designed the base parts in fusion 360. Then had them printed, MJF (multi jet fusion) I would not use that material again, it is not suited for flat surfaces. Too many tiny pits, it really needed a lot a TLC (filler). The barrels are telescoped brass tubing, kits are Tamiya, Hasegawa, Fujimi and a few others. 


The photo above is a screenshot from Battlestar Galactica. Eventually I will build the vingette background as well.










There still are a few kits left to ID, but time will solve these mysteries.

I finished the laser turret build portion,


For now it will be displayed on the stand, this winter I will build the vingette.
The replica is fini
