BRINGING THE GALAXY HOME IN A BOX
|
Welcome to Scale Model TechnologiesSince 1997 SMT has been delivering unique miniatures and model
kits to collectors and modelers worldwide. Over the past 19+ years my prototyping and skills set brought some of the most sought after model kits and miniatures to reality under the SMT brand name. My primary goal is an accurate and well thought out miniature that represents a true image of the subject. I use time honored “old school” techniques in conjunction with technology such as roto-casting, resin injection and thermo-forming. The site contains a mostly complete Kit Archive of what SMT produced over the years from 1997 to 2017. As well the site hosts some client and customer builds under the Gallery pages showcasing SMT products. There is the SMT Ebay link for the occasional items I decide to sell off once in awhile. Enjoy your visit with SMT, I hope you see something you like and let your imagination take shape! |

43" Studio Scale V Tanker Update #2
Summer 2018 is here and I am finally getting ready to tackle my on again, off again Studio scale V tanker build.
The completed model will measure approximately 43" long. I completed work on the blueprints a month or two ago so the build can begin anytime. Though I didn't necessarily need to blueprint the model, I decided it was worth the effort to go along with my Skyfighter and Tanker prints. I may offer these as a set of Builders Reference with dimensions in the near future once I begin my project.
There was only 1 model of the tanker made and no molds were done for it according to Greg Jein.
It currently resides in private hands.
I will be building this as closely as I can to resemble the large studio miniature. As usual there are differences between the small model, larger model and full size version.
Though it looks basic there are some sublteties to the build such as 3 layers of plating on the two main tanks.
But for now here's a couple of photos to start us off!
MPC Millenium Falcon Client Build FINAL
I have completed the MPC Millenium Falcon build for a client who wanted his MPC Falcon built up.Here's a short breakdown of what I modded for the build to bring it more in line with the 5'ft model.
Radar dish reduced in size to match cockpit diameter.
Cockpit tube reduced in length and interior walls, the extra chairs and control panel designed and lighted to better reflect the full size look.
Cockpit window framing added , but I did not trim around the window with channel.
Boarding ramp lit and enclosed and a panel put at the end of the ramp to simulate interior beginning.
Sidewalls reduced in height to come closer to the 5' model walls, but not re detailed.
Center ring added to increase overall hull curvature.
Turret interiors added top and bottom.
Engine area lit and designed with custom graphic. Somewhere between the original trilogy look at full light and more closely resembling the remastered editions with light off.
Custom waterslide decals created and placed for major visible references.
Electronic voltage control tucked away in old battery compartment and individual switches for each lighted section.
Custom display base.
To me it captures the look of the Falcon while keeping the nostolagia of the original MPC release.
