    Just joshin' on the scale thing. :grin: I could also have said that to make mine to-scale with your big ones, mine'd need to be about the size of a bus... but maybe just the size of a small car (like a Lotus Elise) to scale with the smaller ones. :wink:

    Cool news on the Raider. I'll be watching for a new thread! 

    PS my BrickLink orders got caught up in the holiday postal deluge, no signs of the parts yet. Gah! :angry:

    U started building Galactica yet? Looking forward to seeing it in real bricks.

    Might not be easy to imagine what it'll look like from various angles from just one image, but here's a slightly "smoother" transition between sides and top from the front-on - thoughts? It's definitely something I can play with a bit more once I'm building it in the brick. :classic:

    Again, just my opinion. But the "nose" needs to be maybe 1 stud thinner/lower (maybe just make it slope a bit more if possible, if that makes sense) and the top should be 1 stud wider on each side (if possible). The head on view looks better than I expected!

    Hey, thanks for the feedback! Appreciate it. :classic::thumbup:

    I think I understand what you're suggesting. There may be a few relatively easy ways to widen the "bridge" of the nose a bit to try to line up with your suggestion - without doing a render I tried just a (very) quick tweak and LDD screenshot:

    Is that sort of thing what you're getting at? A bit wider, a bit longer, ends closer to the bottom part of the nose...

    I'm sure there are smoother ways to do the curves and angles between the top and side plates, just wanted to check I understood where you were going. :classic:

    That's pretty close.

    Wow, those are 2 really, really great models. I gotta say I like your version of the Pegasus a lot. The Galactica is good, but there was something bugging me about it and I finally figured it out and decided to comment. The "gator head" on the ship has it's geometry slightly wrong when compared to references. The top of the "gator head" on Galactica narrows too much on your model as it slopes down to the nose. If there is any way to widen the "flat" area on top of your model to more closely match the reference pics I think it will go along way to making it look "right". Either way 2 amazing models and I hope you can make the changes to Galactica.

    Well I did have this grand plan to start doing Castle MOCs, and bought quite a few extra sets to use over the last few years but never really found the time to get around to it. So with that said I'm looking to get rid of them now. Also got a few Star Wars and Technic set I could get rid of. I have tried to price everything fairly... so my apologies if anything is way off base. If you don't like a price feel free to make offers. I will ship anywhere. I also have 100% positive feedback on eBay under username porkchop1978, and I have traded and sold quite extensively on tfw2005.com, hisstank.com all with completely positive ratings.

    All of these sets are loose, mint and complete with the instructions unless noted otherwise.
