Hi Guys
I finally found (I think!
)a valid alternative to Photobucket, so I have been in the process of
uploading my last 11 years of photos there, and nothing much has been done.
I hope to have everything done within the next few days!
But in the meanwhile I still had time to finish a tiny little project I had started some month ago.
Please allow me to introduce the Millennium Mandarin project.
This is a Mandarin Fish:
This is the Millennium Falcon:
And this is the Millennium Mandarin!
To finish just 2 photos of the base:
Outer space, as I imagine it...
And literally a black hole.There goes the mistery :)
Thanks for watching!

Very cool indeed. It's nice to see 'classic' designs being used as a blank canvas.

I like the idea of moving the cockpit into the body like that. Very unique - as is the colour scheme. You certainly wouldn's miss that one in space!!

2 Reasons why a model is better than a wife:
1) A model doesn't get jealous when you look at another model
2) A model doesn't yell at you for spending money on another model

Postimage (

)
After trying flickr, imgur and 2 or 3 others, I ended up choosing this one.
But now that I have everyhting sorted out and organized, to move to another one will be quick and much faster

Quite the plausible mods, bright paint scheme, and ingenious stand; I love all aspects of this one. Not sure I could build one that good.

Thank you gentlemen for your remarks!
But the ultimate question remains: Is this a Chris Foss or a Babylon 5 inspired decoration?
P.S. - This time I googled some B5 ship images.....after finishing the painting :)
