If you had the opportunity to take a voyage on this vessel, what kind of crewmember would you want to be? Would you be the captain, executive officer, engineer, a member of the maintenance team, scientist or food service? And most importantly... Should dogs be allowed on the ship 🙂?
I would love working on the Propulsion system, I was a GM Dealership Master Mechanic for 10 years before I became a Trucker, a Warp Drive Engine would be to quote Mr Spock " Fascinating"!!!!!!!
@@conrailfan6277 I could see that! My father is a retired mechanic and the bug to work on stuff has traveled through both my brother and I. I could totally see the enjoyment of working on something like a warp drive would be exciting!! It would definitely be kind of surreal.
I think your math is off - at 290 feet your model would be 1.4732 meters or 4 feet 10ish inches long - by the looks of it it’s half that size at 1/120th scale
That was bloody marvelous. I'm not a builder, although I could seriously get into it. I am a writer and I loved listening to your imaginings of what each part does and what the people are doing
Thank you!! I love coming up with the background story. It's almost as much fun for me to see where it's going to go as it is for the watcher! Thank you for watching!!
Ty for inspiring. I mostly use supper sculpty clay for my creations and add led lights to them to bring them to life. I’m gonna have try styrene now. Nice job.
Thank you for your kind words! I don't have the sculpting ability to use clay :) I am amazed at some of the things I see made out of clay for sure. Thank you so much for watching. I appreciate it!!
I think this may be the most amazing and awe inspiring thing I’ve seen made on TH-cam. Apart from a few greeblies it’s all your own work. Amazing!!! Got yourself a new subscriber ❤👍🏻
I love this! You have a great narration style and I really enjoyed the lore building while you worked. I really hope this channel does well and am looking forward to seeing the next ship!
you deserve more subs than you have!! this is a beautiful professional quality model and the video was really well edited. Subbed and cant wait to see what you come up with next!
I'm in awe of the insane amount of detail on this beast, not to mention the fact that almost all of it was made by hand! Seeing it come together was fascinating and really gratifying. Thanks for sharing this with us, looking forward to seeing your other creations!
WOW, you did an awesome job building this and the attention to detail is great. I really can't wait to see your next project. Keep up the amazing work.
"Poppa, have you seen my toy truck." 😮💨 Awesome build man - truely epic too! And I thought I was the only one who collected those "tabs" from the tops of Mcdonald's tops. Really enjoyed the tips and tricks. Thank you for the video. Looking forward to more from CQA.
Thank you!! The truck has gone to the higher calling of exploring the galaxy 😉, lol. I love those little tabs!! Thank you for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
Adam Savage would love your build! Great work, really enjoyed watching your build process. Look forward to your future projects. Best wishes from Scotland.
Really enjoyed this build. I like how you gave the ship a backstory and shared your reasons behind the design of the ship. Looks like you may have a winning formula here given how many people commented. Subscribed!
Thank you for the kind words 🙂 I am super glad you enjoyed it. I have fun coming up with the story behind the build!! Thank you so much for watching and subscribing!
I was thinking about the bridge windows and all the windows.......... gold foil or gold gilding sheets? Now I realize how much a pain in the aft torpedo tube that maybe to pull off. never mind! Great video!
I had someone else recommend the gold foil. It's kind of funny but I had a bunch of Rolo wrappers that I've been saving for a model and never even thought to use it on the ship, lol. I may still give it a try though 🙂 Thank you for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
That's a very cool build!!! Back in the day That's how Star Wars, Space 1999 and Star Trek came up with ships, they would dump hot rod kits, model ships and others into a pile on a table and build some random ship, 3D printing sure helps too!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you for the kind words. I definitely got some inspiration from movies, and shows, like that. I love the way those ships and creations look and how they built them. My wife and I like to go to the estate sales or thrift shops with the hope I'll find some old model kits or other bits like that. Thank you so much for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
@CosmicQuestHobbies You are welcome, I'm a model railroader but I love building WW2 fighters and the occasional space 1999 Eagle now and then plus I watch Lou Dalmaso, Oggie at Interstellar Modeler and Boyd at Trek Works!! I'm now subbed to your channel too, keep up the great builds!!!
Thank you Jacoblucas! I am having a fun time creating the world and thinking of the future models and dioramas to make to fill in the story! Thank you so much for watching :)
GREAT JOB!! Since you are working in N scale can suggest a good source of greeblies is model railroad parts. Especially the brake kits in HO scale by Cannon & Co . They have small tanks and small box like clusters for hardware. Also fairly inexpensive around $ 4 dollars a pack. I got this idea from the late Greg Jein he used a lot of this on his filming miniature of the mothership from Close Encounters.
Also can I recommend checking out Sublight Drive website. He does a lot of scratchbuildiing spaceships you can get some good ideas from his techniques.
Thank you Ian!! That is a huge compliment🙂. I really enjoyed making it and thinking about what all the bits and pieces did on the ship. Thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment, I truly appreciate it!!
This is very inspirational. I've been looking at getting into prop building or something similar. I don't have the ability to set up a dedicated workspace with tools and everything. But some small scale spaceships cut from styrene could be done. This looks great!
Thank you so much!! I totally agree that this is a nice way to get into building things like that. I have found that it is a great way to calm the mind as well :) Thank you for watching and commenting!!
@@kylehibshman6619 I do have another channel that my wife and I shared some of our hiking and other related things. I was able to get a bit of practice with editing (which I still need a lot of work), but also voiceover stuff. As far as the ship and diorama construction, I only have one other scratch build that I did, and that was during covid as a form of therapy, lol. I did not do video of it but do have a lot of pictures. I might post a few on the community tab here, but I do have some pics of that build on my Cosmic Quest Hobbies instagram page. Thank you for the kind words!!
That is a pretty good space ship model, an excellent job, of course it would have been a little bit better if you had added some lighting to it but it still looks very good nonetheless
Hey John! Thanks for watching!! I totally agree that lights would bring this ship to the next level. That's definitely in the works for a future build 🙂
Thank you!! It is a hand nibbler. I just did a quick search for "hand nibbler" on Amazon. It looks like a bunch of similar ones popped up. Pretty reasonable prices.. $15-20.
Thank you so much!! Do you have any of your builds on TH-cam? The punch is a metal nibbler that you can get on Amazon. I actually have an affiliate link to it in my video description 🙂. Otherwise, you can also just put in "metal nibbler tool" into the search in Amazon! Thank you again, and thank you for watching!!
Thank you for the clarification. I guess I didn't realize there was an exact definition. After reading your comment, I looked it up and sure enough. The definition I read said they are parts harvested from model kits! I can't promise I won't make that verbal error again, lol, but I'll definitely try to differentiate! Thank you Security Robot 🙂.
I'm actually finding quite a few definitions for greeblies or greebles. Some refer to model kit parts and some just refer to greeblies as being the random bits added to the model kits.
@@GrayOperative Hi there. These are 12"x24" sheets. I ordered them from Piedmont Plastics online. They don't offer that service now 🙁. It was a killer deal when I got them. A 12x24 sheet of .030 was like $2.

Awesome build, looking forward to more from this universe! A possible idea, you know how on the apollo lander base and a lot of other spacecraft from the era (and even some today) had a foil wrap around certain components? Your windows being copper coated made me think of that, and wonder if you could use real copper, brass and aluminium foil and or leaf to achieve the same effect. Might be worth a few practice pieces to experiment with before using on and actual build as it might be tricky to work with.
