1:32 Polar Lights Galileo 7

#1 Post by JOHN ROBINSON »

I couldn't wait for this kit to be released all those years ago! I actually built the original kit WITHOUT the interior and was quite happy! When the interior was offered as a separate kit, I picked it up and retrofitted it into my existing exterior!

All the colors were Air Brushed with Tamiya and Vallejo Paints! Colors were achieved by the Help of Gary Kerr who was nice enough to provide color chip reference!

Here are some pics of my work, along with my video series that may help you guys out. As always, Thanks!

Dang! Looks fabulous!

Did you take any step by step pics of the "retrofit"? (Another member did it with his Galileo shuttle build last year on another thread.)

Very cool.
Helena is here at hand;
And the youth, mistook by me,
Pleading for a lover's fee.
Shall we their fond pageant see?
