It is real cool, but I don't think it is the correct scale for a S.S. scale. That Viper in the photos just look right on the scale. I see a note book ring in one of the images so that is how I figured the scale.

thats not a note book ring, its a shower curtain ring unless you see something that i didnt but i am assuming its that gold ring on the bottom...correct?

That does seem a bit more of a shower curtain ring more than a binder type. That would scale it up a bit then.

I am the one who makes these kits. These pictures were taken at Wonderfest. What you all are referring to is a Grommit for my sign. The viper is a moebius kit. If you guys check out the wonderfest web site I actually gave a lecture with Frank Winspur from Moebius Models and The guys from Moebius gave them a thumbs up. The kits are fairly large and detailed so please feel free to ask any questions.

TundraYeti - welcome to the site! And the kit rocks! Are there any lights in it? I see some blue lights in the center image, but I'm not sure they are part of the kit.... ?

Thanks for the welcome.
I designed the kit to make it easy to install lights, but the lights you see in the photo are from another diorama kit i make.
Here is a picture.

The Battlestar galactica hangar bay actually comes in 2 kits, there is a smaller section that you can combine with the large section to make one big diorama.
I make a lot of diorama kits, here is some of my custom work:

NICE! I love dioramas... so much detail. Too too too cool the hanger extends into a larger diorama. A nice "captured" Cylon Raider with the guts hanging out in the hanger would rock

Post up more when you can, we'd love to see more of your work.

Thanks for the compliments and the nice welcome. I have just been commissioned to do a custom hangar for someone. I'll post some pics here as well. Also I have only one set of the 1/32 scale hangar kits left so if anyone wants one, please send me a PM!

It's been awhile, but I have been very busy. Here are some photos of a test build that I am considering adding to my Battlestar Hagar kit selection. This was a custom job for one of my clients that turned out so well, I may add it to my kit offerings. Let me know what you all think.
