discussion Moebius 1/350 Colonial One

[Alan 45]

I've been busy with this over the last week , the seat of the President of the Twelve Colonies


Formally known as the luxury liner Heavy 798 but after the attack on the colonies by the Cylons she became the flagship of the civilian fleet


The kit is good with no problems but the decals are awful and none of the large ones fit


I've painted this to look as she did in the final series all dirty


Here she is in the Galacticas port side landing bay


Comments welcome

Cheers Scott , it's a nice kit very easy but best to paint the large decals on , I'm going to get another and do that

Built this last month and your right the decals are a pig, I ended up paint matching the upper ones and filling them in with a brush


Nice build and a nice base for it, well done.

Cheers Adrian, yeah I had to do the same , the blue strip on the sides were to long on mine so I cut them and hide the seem under the engine pylons
