Thanks

Balta1, do you mean figures or spacecraft? Either way, please post them!

Regards, Dan

I am looking for only the vehicles and spacecraft. I would think that someone out there must have some type of drawings/plans to help build one. Any help would be appreciated.

Balta1,

Check out the Scratchbuilt Starfighter’s Build and you will see different ships in progress and finished.

Regards, Dan

You might ask this guy where he got his plans from. If nothing else his model is inspiring.[;)] http://24.138.31.246/rob/nostromo/uscss_nostromo_ii__march_2004.htm

buybuddho, that is one sweet fighter! Reminds me of me Battlefleet Gothic days!
I’m mainly looking for vehicles/spacecraft from the Alien movies. I am going to try to scratchbuild the APC in 1/72nd scale to put along side my dropship. I know there was a resin one out several years ago but I would like to try my hand in scratchbuilding.
Woody, that is one big ****** Nostromo! I don’t know if I would go 6 yrs with that beast!

OOOPS! Sorry Balta!

I’m starting a 1/4 scale Alien from the '79 film. I am trying very hard to get the proportions and details dead on. The other kits that are out there don’t hit both marks.

Hey Cobywan, are you going to try to scratcbuilt the BS Galactica from the mini-series?

Did you know about my blueprint project?

I hope to do one someday. I already started the classic G a couple of months ago.

Great looking drawings! I downloaded all the image from the Studio Models Builder site and the idea for building one is starting to take root in my mind. Heaven help me with all those ribs it would be quit the project.

new to this forum , but had to reply to the question . A few years back ,I built a 1/4 scale alien powerloader using the halcyon kit to get measurements from . The guy who did the masters for these kits had an association with the kit builders from the films . Sorry I don’t have a web site to show my pictures yet but if you hav an e-mail I can send you a pic . I live in the UK

Forgot to mention but I know Martin very well ( Bower ) . and I have seen most of his build ups for real . He helped with advice when I was building my powerloader .
