Holy smoke, I did Not know how much work you put into the details. It's not the exactly a high quality model but you sir did some wonderful work on it. You have my respect!
Looks stunning. Love the subtle Aztec . That texture, I’ve had similar happen when painting with the model air color over some finishes. In this case I think it enhances it.
I have an original 1978 model of Battle Star Galactica I built when I was 18.Its still in one piece, I repainted it correctly about 10 years ago. I am now 61.😁 At the time it was a Monogram model.
Great work as usual Sam. When you talked about masking all the panels I figured there goes around 10 years of your life with all that work. I had the original Galactica that Monogram models put out a few decades ago that was a smaller scale than the Moebius Models kit. Looking forward to your next build and maybe at some point Moebius will bring out a Base Star.
Thank you! Yeah I'm glad I made the call to swap to stencils when I did lol. I think it was when I realised that picking off the masks was going to take longer than putting them on.
Only just came across this channel but I enjoyed this video, so much so it makes me want to take up building models and painting them again something iv'e not done since I was a kid.
I just bought this on Amazon. Doubt it’s the same ship but it’s quit remarkable the time, patience, and meticulous artistry it takes to do this. Anyone that does this has to be a huge fan of the series, both old and recent. I can’t wait for mine to arrive!! I may attempt to put a light system in it!! The recent series had me hooked the first show and even though I’m a huge Star Trek fan, the BattleStar Galatica is my favorite.
Looks great! A few months ago I used a similar template techniue to paint the various panels on a Star Detroyer model. There was zero chance I was going to mask those hunderds of panels individually.
One of the best tools I ever purchased from modelling was a die cutter. Vinyl stencils are the best and you can save a ton of time cutting out shapes for masks. I hear the Crikets are really good.
Beautiful! I loved the Pegasus Lee Adama should have attacked the Cylons at long range at New Caprica with her Vipers leaving the Fleet for a short time. They could have saved their greatest asset it makes no sense to destroy your most powerful ship.
Would be a cool idea, but even at this scale they'd be so small. You can make out the size of them by the launch tubes along the sides of the flight pods, they're only 1-2mm wide.
Subscribed, but never got an upload notification. Have you been naughty? Pegasus rocks. Love it. I just did the 1/1000 Discovery Enterprise, using the same Vallejo gunmetal, but yours came out much better, seems more metallic. I credit your channel for turning me towards Vallejo paints. I have to order them online as none are locally available, but enjoy using them much more then Model Master or even Tamiya.
Yeah sounds like RUclips just doing RUclips things. What did you spray the gunmetal over? It can change depending on the undercoat. Vallejo paints are pretty good, the main reason I use them is just because my local hobby store has them stocked up, but I do prefer them over Tamiya acrylics. I haven't really tried anything else, except for Citadel paints which I reserve for brush painting.
@@modelchili I sprayed over the Vallejo Light Grey Primer. Roughly close to Tamiya color of primer, slightly lighter. I did really like the Vallejo primer though, and was kind of tired of the rattle can Tamiya as I have to go outside to do that, and always get some dust or debris in it, no matter what. I think some of my issue was the Enterprise had a kind of weird texture, like a pebbly grain. Particularly the saucer. Good kit, got the light kit for it. Pro tip, don't run the LEDs too long, the nacelle motors generate heat that can damage the bussard collector LEDs, which happened. But would love to see you give that kit a once around.
I saw the episode where they first introduced the BattleStar Pegasus on the remake of BattleStar Galactica and the same with the original series too and both were interesting and surprising for the crew of the Galactica as they all thought they were the only surviving BattleStar and like with the original series with the remake I would have thought the Pegasus was the same class as the Galactica until I saw this video called BattleStar Galactica Spacedock and in the video it said the Pegasus was what was called a Mercury Class BattleStar while the Galactica was called a Jupiter Class.
Why does the Pegasus not have any railgun turrets along the upper dorsal? Even the older Galactica had at least 8. Seems like a blind zone for any cylons flying straight down from above!
The bulk of her main battery guns are primarily along her bow and broadsides, and the vast majority of her AA are actually hidden between the plates of armor. Yeah she has minimal heavy firepower on her dorsal hull, but she has the capacity to keep larger vessels at standoff range, pretty much mitigating the blind spot.
Those little things that need extra attention are what I love about scale modeling. Slap on putty, cue up some Electric Light Orchestra, and sand away.
Very nice! I do like that tone shifts you msdked! I am thinking of doing some lighting in my build, do you know if anyone does a light set? I'm also looking at the paragraphics exterior detail set...
One thing that never seems to work for me is using liquid cement after painting - either refuses to bond or blisters the paintwork . Any tips or suggestions would be much appreciated. PS - good video, encouraging and clearly presented, with a fab finished model
Thank you! Yes ideally you should never apply liquid cement on paint, as it will make a huge mess of the paint and prevent the plastic sections from bonding properly. I was just a bit lazy in this case, I should have sanded away the sections before applying glue. Sometimes if an area will never be seen or isn't that structurally important I'll just glue it anyway and hope for the best. Taking shortcuts can work sometimes!
Your modifications to the flight bays are nice, but you forgot something. You need to scratch build some appropriately scaled vipers to put in them. :)
Thanks! Yeah sometimes I use plastic cement over glue. You just need enough to melt through the paint, but not so much that you make a mess of everything. I try to avoid doing this, but sometimes I'm lazy and just roll with it.
@@modelchili Thanks I'm just taking the hobby up after setting it aside for decades and look for all the current tips I can get. Model building has gone to a new level since I was a kid.
time 16,00 .. I going to print landing bay I mean from one peace of the landing bay from kit I will print more pieces of the original landing peace , and put my printed landing gear together and I will make all hangar with landing bay . then I will drill 0,5 mm holes on landing bay I mean I will make two lines thought hangar .and then put to holes optic Kable and make them blinking from back to the front .
Pegasus is an amazing battlestar. Alway thought William Adama should have transferred his flag to her after commander fisk death and gave Galactica to Saul Tigh. Garner and Apollo was bad choices to comman Pegasus
Very nice build. However, I do not think it is for begginer modeler though - mainly because of the price - about 300 EUR is the cheapest one on EBay ;-)
this is the first vid Ive seen of yours and loved it EXCEPT for the ad's every min or two...... I get that you wanna make a buck but they shld of paid you hundreds for all the clicking ad's away every min or so
@@modelchili I didnt count them but it was a ton..... I think the longest stretch was 3 mins maybe.... I bet there was close to 20 if not more.... I used to run a channel back in the day when they first started paying us.... back then it was good money, I made in a month what I did in a year later on when they changed it.... it was enough I quit putting ads on vids because it wasnt worth it..... but yeah it was enough that I was ready to turn off the video.... the red line that shows where you are in video looked like a highway line all dashed up.... some was less than a full min long and having to grab the mouse again.... tv has NEVER been that bad..... its sad really.... I know you need paid but if I wasnt into the mobius models I wldnt of watched that whole vid..... maybe do up a blank account, make another email and then another youtube account in diff name and watch yourself.... it was way overboard....waaaaaaaaaay overboard.... every three mins is too much but less than a min is whole another level.... sorry to bring this to ya, its just getting sad....
The vipers are magnetically locked and then rotated to the correct orientation of the flight deck which is the same orientation (right side up) for all landing decks.
Pegasus offered so much more to the fleet. Apollo should have been court martialed and spaced for disobeying orders, and loosing such a valuable military resource.
This turned out very well. Not a great kit, with shoddy moulding for the landing bays and use of the same gun turrets as the Galactica kit. You have made a silk purse from a sow’s ear. The Paragraffix photo etch linings tfor the inside of the flight pods are OK, but not screen accurate. What is bad about those etch parts is their launch tube strips - instead of making the tubes themselves as holes in the brass strip, they’re raised surfaces! You didn’t miss out by not buying them. I have been working on a new Galactica on and off for years. It’s is a terrible kit - they made a step between the head and neck which doesn’t exist on the CGI model (you need to slim down the decks between the “jaws” to get the top of the head to sit level), the moulding was done on the cheap so the armour plates fill the voids between the hull ribs where the armour ends along the top sections and the side plates of the head (I spent weeks carving those out and replacing all the small panels on the head with styrene sheet) , they are missing the point defence guns in many areas (styrene rod), the rear profile of the flight pods is wrong (flat sided triangle rather than barrel shaped, needing the ribs all removing, sheet bonding and rounding, then new ribs), they have single gun emplacements along the whole of the pods, when the guns are doubled up between the thicker ribs, and the inside of the pods is awful (as are the Paragraphix accessories), needing a full custom interior with sheet, ribs made from rods, the suspended corridors and docking bridges…. Then there are the Acreation decals, which shed their colouring and turned pink… not a fun build in all. Still, it is gradually turning out very well. I lit the pods, engines (greyish white, not blue like the Pegasus - watch the departure from Ragnar Anchorage to get a really good view of their tone), and the six red lights in the vids where the pods retract (looks like five lights per side in season one, but watching season two shows better angles from the side and resulted in the model having to be opened up again 🤬). It’ll be worth it. On the plus side, I’m nearing completion of Moebius’ 1:350 Discovery XD1 (2001), and that is a lovely kit. Just be careful assembling the engines - it’s easy to get the hexagonal end plates with the exhaust details in the incorrect orientation to the thin section of the engine trunks, but it’s important!
Sounds like you might be soaking them too long? I only dip them in water for a second or two, they just need enough to get saturated then leaving out gives them plenty of time to soak without getting too soft. Otherwise they could be faulty decals. I've had plenty break apart even after a second in water.
That's just RUclips's default setting, I could go in and manually change the number and types of ads on a video by video basis, but don't have much incentive.
Please don't use your good nippers on thick stuff like that, use cheap ones for the bulk then use the tams when near desired point, you will chip the blades on them tams for sure
Holy smoke, I did Not know how much work you put into the details. It's not the exactly a high quality model but you sir did some wonderful work on it. You have my respect!
I can't build models anymore, but if I could, there would be some BSG love. Nice work!
Thanks!
Fantastic build! I love the almost-BSG music at 38:24! So say we all!
Looks stunning. Love the subtle Aztec . That texture, I’ve had similar happen when painting with the model air color over some finishes. In this case I think it enhances it.

At the time it was a Monogram model.
As a longtime BSG fan (4/5ths of my 23 years on this Earth), I can gleefully say you did the Pegasus justice! That is one sexy finished product!
I cannot believe how awesome is your handiwork. This is a beast of a model, and you make her awesome.

Came out amazing. I like using Tamiya Weathering Master pastels for rust and soot
Thank you!
I actually have a model of the original BattleStar Galactica and it was one of the glue together models and I still have it.
My all-time favorite series. Great video.
One of the best tools I ever purchased from modelling was a die cutter. Vinyl stencils are the best and you can save a ton of time cutting out shapes for masks. I hear the Crikets are really good.

Another great build Sam. I really like the paint job you did. Once again you chilled me out dude. Look forward to your next build.
Awesome, thank you!
Now if it only had tiny little vipers and raptors to park on that awesome deck you made! :)
That would be cool!
Your attention to detail and hand work is fantastic as of yet, love ya bubba
Thank you kindly!
"So! Out comes the putty." I love these words! :D
Hell yeah
Well done. I'll have to look out for the model and pick it up if I get the chance to find one.
Thanks!
Thanks so much for this vid. I have one of these and I do not want to "mess" it up.
Glad I could help!
Lovely kit mate. Thanks for the video. Keep up the great content. John form the Wairarapa.
Cheers John!
I have an LED chaser circuit that would mimic the lights on the landing bay deck. 🙃
Nice.
Been loving your posts on Instagram. Such a fantastic model and such an amazing paint job.
Thank you!
Some Resin 3D printed raptors and or vipers for the flight pods would have just been magnificent.
Would be a cool idea, but even at this scale they'd be so small. You can make out the size of them by the launch tubes along the sides of the flight pods, they're only 1-2mm wide.
@@modelchili I didn't realize the scaling was THAT small, camera makes it look bigger. Ah well tuck that idea on the back shelf for later I suppose.

I'd be so tempted to put small white LEDs down the inside of the flightbays, red ones for the engines and mixture of colours inside the main body.

Put them on a shelf most of the time. I've sold a few, given some away, don't really have much space left!

Awesome! Is it just me, or are there some Russian/Soviet tank road wheels there during the sponging stage?
It's hard to say, since it was a CGI model they wouldn't have used any tank model bits, but it's possible they used some for inspiration.

I so want a 1/18 scale version so bad
So when you doing panel lining I thought you was suppose to wait for it to dry then take it off with some thinner?
Well it depends on what you're using. I was just painting the recessed lines. You only take it off if it overspills.
Great

The vipers are magnetically locked and then rotated to the correct orientation of the flight deck which is the same orientation (right side up) for all landing decks.
@@matthewlewin5536 that explains a great deal..thank you
I would like to know how it works ANYwhere. No matter how damaged a ship is, the artificial gravity ALWAYS works. Hollywood movie law, I guess.

Otherwise they could be faulty decals. I've had plenty break apart even after a second in water.
You certainly don't spare the pop-up ads do you? I finally had to give up on the video because the sheer number of ads were just getting annoying. smh
That's just RUclips's default setting, I could go in and manually change the number and types of ads on a video by video basis, but don't have much incentive.
