Hammerhead Ship

Sponsorship opportunities available ------ Ask us about them!



by Tim Mullins

Scale: 1/4195

Built in the same scale as the Monogram Battlestar, I envisioned this ship as a background extra for either series. The industrial look of a lot of the rag tags was my goal. I used similar parts from several of the ships to make the ship fit the BSG universe. For example the main upper hull is submarine halves like the hull of the prison barge. The scratch built hammerhead is a nod to the bow of the Celestra class heavy transport/science/electronics ship. Structural beam elements add to the industrial look. The majority of the detail parts come from auto, ship, and aircraft kits. Only 4 armor parts in this one.
