I wasn't too happy with the original cockpit and wanted a slightly bigger/longer one so more detail of the pilot and controls could be seen, so I decided to have a go at making my own.

You have a amazing talent for building, detailed work, and taking pictures with two hands on the project. I love three handed people. :huh: :blush: :lol:

WOW I LOVE IT! Your 2nd kitbash is perfect!
The only "problem" is the 5 dead Cylons on the side...

Any plans for your next kitbash?

The Raider perhaps, or the even Basestar?

No, going off theme and attempting a scratch build... Going to attempt Gateship One (Puddle Jumper) from Stargate Atlantis. You can see the start of it in one of the previous photo's. Shall I post some photo's of this as work progresses, i know it's not battlestar, o will it be OK to post on this site...?
