Woody's designed,Cozmo's model-USS SAMSON
Permalink   

This is my first 1/2500 scale I have finished. It is the Cozmo's USS Goliath from a design by Chris "Woody" Wood, named the USS Samson. I took the model and changed some of it to look like Woody's original design.



The model's Dish is moved from under the ship, to the notched out I made.



I put the decals that came with the kit, and added more of the PNT Model decals I had. All the decals on the rear are added.



The cargo pods from the kit, were cut down by 3/4 inch each. I wanted them to be shorter, to fit more under the ship better.


I will post shots of the sides, front, and rear soon. Enjoy, and comments wanted!

Size doesn't matter in Space; just getting the movement of the behemoth is where all the power will be in.  After the inertia has it moving, then it is no problem.  I assume that’s why you have the third engine.


Do the cargo Containers come off the ship?  Meaning can they be interchangeable depending on the mission?

The cargo containers are removable. This ship will deliver containers, where ever they are need.


This ship can have two more attached to the bottom center, and to the ends of the ones attached.

I’d just hate to be the guy that has to run a part from the front of the ship down to the aft of the ship.  That’s a hike!!

Wow! That is awesome. I really like that you restored the main deflector dish to the front lip. She's beauty, really made my day.

Thanks, Chris!


I knew you would like it. I loved your design, ever since I saw it, and was glad a model of it came out. I am thinking of doing another, with more cargo containers.


Here are some more photos.
