Modeling Subjects Group Builds

In memory of Leonard Nimoy
A GB dedicated to Star Trek

The rules:

  • any scale ,and kit from Star Trek, or anything linked with the show (anyone want to try the 1932 Caddy from “A Piece Of The Action?)

-Props are welcome, as long as you build it. A DST phaser would not count unless you completely disassemble it and modify it in some way while putting it back together. A 23rd century pistol would be great.

-Any Star Trek, series or Movie. Yes even JJ Trek

  • crossovers from other GB’s welcome.

-start date 3 March 2015 until March 31 2016.

-Kits of less than 30% completed also welcome.

Lets use the Vulcan philosophy of IDIC in this build.

Thanks for launching this Mach71. And frankly GBs aren’t too hard to run, I was a bit leery of it when I kicked off Japanese GB #1 but it’s pretty easy. Just check in every day or so and keep on top of things and that’s about it.

I don’t have a Spock figure but do have one of the AMT vinyl kits in 1/6th scale of his good buddy and debating foe Doctor Leonard ‘Bones’ McCoy I’d like to enter.

5

Man, everyone is doing the vinyl figures! I have Mr. Spock and Kirk that should arriving today, Dr. McCoy in my stash already, and I did Mr. Scott for the FSM GB. You guys beat me to the finish line! [;)]

I said I wasn’t going to do many GB’s this year, but with this one in memory of Mr Spock…I’m in!

Not sure what yet. I have some Enterprises I could pull, but just might join the masses and do the vinyl figure.

I think I’ll be working on the Enterprise Bridge Set…

I’ll be out of town this weekend. I’ll commit to a kit next week.

7

Nice selection you have there Bean! That Bridge looks sweet!

Eagle90

8

Love that Romulan War Bird, and that weird hard to replicate green.

9

Just placed my order for the Polar Lights 1/1000 Enterprise Refit.

10

Thanks Eagle90.

I’m looking forward to putting it together.

11

I wish someone made that bad ass U.S.S. Vengeance from “Into the Darkness”

12

I have a few ideas, but, if I go ‘starship’ it’ll be 1/1400 due to my space limitations [^o)]

13

I received the Mr. Spock and Kirk AMT kits yesterday! So I will definitely be doing the Spock, but you know what…I could just do all three (Spock, Kirk, and McCoy)! [whstl]

14

Thanks again Mach71, I’ll try to get the box posted and clean up ‘Bones’ this weekend.

15

Mach71 I’m interested. I’ll have to see how the schedule works, this is a busy year already. Please add me to the roster, I have to see what out there.

Thanks and RIP Spock, he was an inspiration for a lot of us.

I think I have everyone up on the roster so far. If I’ve missed anyone please let me know.

Modelcrazy I’m surprised no one has come out with a resin kit of the Vengeance yet. It’s surprising that the JJ universe has not produced many models.

17

Right?

I can find a Christmas ornament of it, but no kit. I would be happy with a “Snap” kit.

I can find, and probably go with, the Revell JJ Enterprise, if I can find one that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.

Mr Spock arrived

19

I got a present in the mail yesterday. I was surprised at the box art on the lower half of the box. Those decals about gave me a coronary. I have never done that many on one project before; should be interesting. I am also going to attempt to light this bad boy, that should prove to be a nerve racking.

After my SWGB, I’ll get rolling on this…

20

I, too, would like to hope in on this, I’ll break out my 1/1000th Reliant by Polar lights. Though, I think I will search for other decals for it (or maybe make some markings of my own…). One USS Reliant is enough.

In all honesty, this ship is my favorite Starfleet vessel. Look forward to seeing what everyone’s build looks like.
