I had a large poster of the Galactica when I was a lad. I also used to build a lot of model ships. I recognized several pieces of Galactica that I had used in several of my ships. Upsidedown lifeboats to look like oval hull structures, several cranes(on battleship models sea plane retrievers) and some of the guns(mostly lower caliber, not the 16 inchers). To build a replica of it was clearly beyond my meager skills. That's some fine work!
Awesome work!! I’m A huge Star Trek and Battlestar fan. The New Battlestar blew me away and I loved each week for another new episode. I’m sure you value your ship and the whole Human Race owes you a bit of gratitude!!! Job well done sir!!
Wow; this brings back memories. I did almost exactly this back in '79 or so, when I was a teen. I've forgotten what brand it was, but it was a basic off-the-shelf model kit (Revell, maybe?) Yours looks pretty much the same. Fiber optics had just come out for general use and I got a "kit" of about 100 12" strands at Radio Shack (RIP). It took me several tries before I got the hang of melting a "lens" at the end of a cut with a soldering iron, which kind of worried me as the kits were expensive for the time and I couldn't afford another one. But I got the hang of it quickly enough to complete the build. No engine lights, though - I was happy enough with the "windows". Of course, there were no white LEDs at the time, and certainly no super bright ones like we have today. I used a basic flashlight bulb in the center section as the light source, powered by a 9 volt battery. Worked well enough to impress my friends. Nice job; thanks for the video trip down memory lane! :-)
It was probably Monogram that released the kit you built but modeling companies buy each other out like any other industry. It's possible Monogram's tooling and model molds were bought out by Revell just as AMT (best known for the original Star Trek licenses among sci-fi modelers) bought out ERTL and the outfit later bought out MCP, the modeling company that was the "classic Star Wars" modeling company up until few years ago when they lost their license and the Star Wars rights (to models) got split worldwide between Revell (Europe/US) and Bandai (Japan, Asian region; later allowed official access to the US by Disney. The modeling kits today are a lot better than what you or I are used to from the 1970s and 1980s. People talk about the technology but the fact of the matter is that the average age of the builder today is older than it was back then and people expect to get their money's worth and get a more accurate build out of the box, PERIOD... The companies are doing better at capturing the likeness of the ships but the aftermarket for parts and lighting kits is bigger than ever. You can take your time and get partially nuts from modeling, or rush it like kids did back then... and you have also have your choice of doing it glue-together, or snap-together more than ever. The smaller kits are more likely to be snap-together but that certainly hasn't hurt the popularity of the Bandai Star Wars line... Those guys can do virtually no wrong against everybody else who still occasionally ripped to shreds -- ESPECIALLY Revell and (to a lesser extent) Round 2 models!
Calvin Gifford heheh well I had a few problems but I just work around them and it all worked out in the end. I am pretty proud of that ship. It is the best Galactica I have done since I build my very first one back in the late 70's as a kid. Thanks again for the comment. I hope some of my technics help you in your model builds.
Yes! And I also bult my first BSG kits back in the '70's - one of my faves was a Viper that I put in USAF markings, with some "nose art" from a Monogram B-25! :-)
Thank you. I hope I gave you ideas on how to do your model. You can also check out www.starshipmodeler.com/ for techniques on adding realism to your models.
A simple trick to keeping the glue from squeezing out along outer edges is to carefully glue along the inner edge of the lip of the plastic part instead of the center. The glue will then squeeze out along the inner side of the model part.
I have a bit of consumer feedback if I may. 1) Thin your paint when you use a brush or sand it down afterwards otherwise all you see is the brush marks. 2) Re weathering techniques I found (fantasy) miniature modelling techniques very useful to learn when applied to larger things they carry over very well as they teach you to have an eye for extreme detail too. 3) You could put the switch on the inside of the base if you wanted to (someone thinking of doing the same, Personally I'd have mounted it on a plinth as long as the ship to prevent any chance of her getting knocked over (see the prototype USS Voyager study model for a good example of that). 4) Personally i'd probably consider reinforcing the fighter bays and the joints between the main sections - I don't think Model kit plastic is strong enough for that. 5) Oh make sure you use heat resistant tape so you don't set fire to your model people. 6) I would recommend showing how you cap or secure the ends of the fibre optics also it looked like you sprayed the interior silver - but it doesn't say so in the video. Anyway I enjoyed watching you build the model.
Thank you for the awesome comment Apollo. I do take great pride in my work and am basically self-taught but have learned much from other modellers such as Trek Works and Interstellar Modeler. Also getting valuable information from various websites. All in all I do have fun and currently working on another highly detailed model which should be uploaded within the next month or so. It does take time and I have spent many days and weeks building them. The final results speak for themselves. Thanks again and happy modeling everyone!!!!!
+abbahhh I never have been being a model builder but have always admired the skill of those who could do so; I remember seeing a home-made USS Enterprise on youtube....I believe entirely made from scratch....all of you model builders have done very impressive models.....glad to see videos of them!
You've don an incredible job on it, both in the external and internal detail. I'm working on an HO scale truck, in the vein of Mad Max (it runs on rails, but is armed and armoured post-apocalyptic style) but even with something this small, and relatively simple, it's not an easy one to do. To the best of my knowledge, the "Louisville Loco" is unique. A one of a kind I have to even fabricate a whole new chassis for to make it work
Glad you liked it. Letting you know I do commission work and if you wanted one built I can do it for you. If interested contact me at modelbildr501@gmail.com
I built a 1978 Galactica back then. I didn't get it to look nearly as nice as the job you did, I didn't try to light it and used a darker shade of grey on the hull. Now, nearly 40 years later I have a bit more experience so I may pick up one of the Mobius kits and try again, and possibly the newer version as well.
Very nice. It would have been cool if you had put some dim red LEDs behind the launch tubes. Not bright enough to really be seen on first glance, but just visible when you look into the openings. :)
You should make these and sell them....it looks absolutely FANTASTIC and AMAZING!! If you ever do decide to make them and sell them...let me know...because I would be VERY interested to purchase and have here in my office. Thanks for a GREAT GREAT video!!!
abbahhh that would have been so awesome and a real treasure to have. It would have been cool to have had it signed by members of the original cast as well
I remember as a kid in the late 70's or early 80's seeing a huge model kit for the Galactica in a store. The dimensions were huge, something like 4 or 5 feet long. The box was huge too. Of course it was expensive so I couldn't persuade the parents to buy it....not that I'd have any room for it anyway. :-)
Someone who was lead to believe that this video featured the building of the original Battlestar Galactica prop used in the show but instead found a clip of some random guy from the internet building a store-bought model. So, someone like me.
Thank you. I always try to add more realism to the models I build. Either self taught or learned from others. I hope I helped you in your model builds. Happy modeling!
Really enjoyed watching your video of the build. It was really quite an experence to watch a craftsman at work. My only question concerns the thumbnail image of the model on the video bar. It was the models color that first caught my attention. It appears to be a composite of a khaki and bronze. However, it doesn't look that color at the end of the video. Now I admit it has been some time since I built my own kit. Almost four decades now. Back then I had not the skills and tools they have today. Did you repaint the model after completion? Best of luck in your future endeavours.

Thanks for the comment William. To answer your question. I dod not repaint the model after completion. It was a different kind of lighting I used so it just looks different in color. I don't have a website per se but you can contact me at modelbildr501@yahoo.ca.
I was actually wondering what the point of this video was because I thought surely this cannot be what the series was filmed with.... all I can say is I like the dedication to replicate, as closely as possible, the Galactica in a scale model

well incandescent bulbs burn too hot and have a very short life span. As to the color I just used soft white light LEDs. For me, at least, they gave the desired effect. Every modeller has their own style but I think you are right with the yellow. I have done research by watching the videos of the show and there are yellow windows but did not seem like they were yellow all the time so I just opted for the soft white.
A couple of questions: How do you deal with seams and painting once all the lighting is done? Or is the kit such that the seams are hidden so that you can go ahead and just detail as you did in the video?
Excellent work however some details were overlooked. specifically the interior of the landing bays which can be seen form outside if you look directly down the ends of each of the landing bays. in the show this was done by having a tiny painting mounted just inside the landing bay .however they only created one tiny painting for the interior of a landing Bay so if they wanted to show the other Landing Bay they would flip the picture digitally . Also I noticed some gaps around the engines that allowed light to bleed through. However All Things Considered I could have never done the excellent work that was done here.
I had a large poster of the Galactica when I was a lad. I also used to build a lot of model ships. I recognized several pieces of Galactica that I had used in several of my ships. Upsidedown lifeboats to look like oval hull structures, several cranes(on battleship models sea plane retrievers) and some of the guns(mostly lower caliber, not the 16 inchers). To build a replica of it was clearly beyond my meager skills. That's some fine work!
Thanks, The original Galactica has always been my favorite.
I wish I had the patience for anything even remotely as complicated as this.
Well done and thanks for sharing.
The *original* 1978 Battlestar Galactica is the *best*.
KaijuProductions i agree the best
i disagree
Joel Clark original thousand times better
i've seen both the original hasn't aged well
this is my BSG!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome work!! I’m A huge Star Trek and Battlestar fan. The New Battlestar blew me away and I loved each week for another new episode. I’m sure you value your ship and the whole Human Race owes you a bit of gratitude!!! Job well done sir!!
What a beautiful model! Outstanding job!!
when I read "original" I thought studio model :) but I am very impressed with the lighting kit, it looks fantastic.
I wish I had the studio model hehehe. I think I should make the full scale studio model one day.
Those bow lights are killer, nice job . 😎👍
She’s a beautiful ship. I love the design of the original and the 94 version.

Thank you. I hope I gave you ideas on how to do your model. You can also check out www.starshipmodeler.com/ for techniques on adding realism to your models.
You really did an awesome job! Thank you for sharing this.
Phantastik how the modells can look. When i do it you see the glue. :)
A simple trick to keeping the glue from squeezing out along outer edges is to carefully glue along the inner edge of the lip of the plastic part instead of the center. The glue will then squeeze out along the inner side of the model part.
I really love the callback to this in Deadlock where they use more or less this model for the old Battlestars from the first Cylon War.
Wow, such commitment, all that awesome wiring, well done 😊
I have been building models all my life. Patience is the key. Thanks for the comment :)
speaking of patience, how many hours do you work to get all that lighting in place? actually how long did it take for you to build it?
Thanks, yes it does take patience and the love of making the models.
I have a bit of consumer feedback if I may.
1) Thin your paint when you use a brush or sand it down afterwards otherwise all you see is the brush marks.
2) Re weathering techniques I found (fantasy) miniature modelling techniques very useful to learn when applied to larger things they carry over very well as they teach you to have an eye for extreme detail too.

Beautiful work! Congratulations!
Thank you. It was fun build.
Props for the hard work. Damn, that is a fine model I must say.

Nice build and a good dirarama. One suggestion paint the stand black. I think it will improve the illusion that the ship is actually flying
I will try that. Thanks :)
Beautifully done mate. I really enjoyed watching this.

I had this kit when I was a kid. Not sure what happened to it. I still have my Vipers and Cylon fighter to this day.
It's a beauty.

Great job, amazing work.
Excellent job!!!
I wish I could build models. At least I can watch them be built on TH-cam.

Fantastic video
I got the whole TV series of that show Battlestar Galactica I'd love that show
You'd think by now someone would make a decent sized kit of this thing. Something that comes in around 3ft or so.
Who would down vote this?
Someone who was lead to believe that this video featured the building of the original Battlestar Galactica prop used in the show but instead found a clip of some random guy from the internet building a store-bought model.
So, someone like me.

Over the years I have acquired quite a few kits I planned to build in my retirement. Sadly, arthritis has made my hands and fingers nearly useless. Still I shall give them a try. Great work on both the model and video. Best of luck in your future endeavours.
Thanks Very Kindly

Do you have a website where I might see different views of the completed model. Right now I only have access to the net from a seven inch tablet, as my computer is kaput! I would enjoy talking about your work and techniques in modeling. Thanks Again.
Thanks for the comment William. To answer your question. I dod not repaint the model after completion. It was a different kind of lighting I used so it just looks different in color. I don't have a website per se but you can contact me at modelbildr501@yahoo.ca.
I was hoping for a view of the 'concept' drawings and possibly how the parts were actually molded, but still a great video.
The original and STILL the BEST!
I hear you there and totally agree.
Excellent design and building. This is a a great model build only question is where do I buy mine ?
I was actually wondering what the point of this video was because I thought surely this cannot be what the series was filmed with....
all I can say is I like the dedication to replicate, as closely as possible,
the Galactica in a scale model
THe series used a 6' model. I only wish I had one that size. Iamgine the detailing then.........
Outstanding

Hehehe not sure which felgercarb you are referring too.
Nice . Ever think of trying green screening it and adding a star field ?
Excellent work however some details were overlooked. specifically the interior of the landing bays which can be seen form outside if you look directly down the ends of each of the landing bays. in the show this was done by having a tiny painting mounted just inside the landing bay .however they only created one tiny painting for the interior of a landing Bay so if they wanted to show the other Landing Bay they would flip the picture digitally .
