    USS Flagg Carrier Carrier Strike Group project

    Wow, what you are asking to do is an ambitious project. There are many of customs out there that are scratch built USS Flagg. Most of them are built with wood and other bits. The main question you are going to need to ask yourself is what scale to build it. To start, the official Hasbro model is...

    USS Flagg Carrier Carrier Strike Group project

    Hello Everyone, Today I turned my attention back on the USS FLAGG. I am sure some of you all have seen this custom table that this Hisstanker made for his FLAGG (Custom Flagg base/table - HissTank.com). I was inspired to do something like that for this FLAGG project. The only problem, I am...

    USS Flagg Carrier Carrier Strike Group project

    No, I am not interested in having the finial version to float, it's more of a playset to go with the USS FLAGG or a stand alone vehicle to take on aliens. During my research into this project, I have seen videos of other foamboard ship builders that coat their ships in resin to give it a hard...

    USS Flagg Carrier Carrier Strike Group project

    Hello Everyone, Well, we survived Hurricane Michael this past weekend. I got a 5 day payed weekend out of it. It allowed me to do some more work on the destroyer project before and after the storm hit (and when we got power back on). I reworked the wall of the island and made them taller from...

    USS Flagg Carrier Carrier Strike Group project

    Thanks for the feedback on the E-2 Hawkeye idea. Here is a pic I found online of the vacuum form mold: I heard back from the maker and he said the total wing span is 30 in, which sounds right. The Skystriker wing span is 22 in if I remember right. With the wings folded, the plane should fit...

    USS Flagg Carrier Carrier Strike Group project

    Hello Everyone, It has been a while since I last posted. In short, I had to take some time away from this project partly due to family issues, partly my computer hard drive died on me, and partly I got involved in Summoners War game. But I am back again thanks to discovering the new True Heroes...

    I Need Help!!!

    Hey G.I.*EDDIE, Here is a thought, what if you send me the figure, I will take it apart, mold and cast what I need, and then after I tool the new torso, I paint it based on the original colors you had and assemble the figure with the new torso? Or I can glue the old design back together and...

    I Need Help!!!

    G.I.*EDDIE, If the torso is not glued together, being painted should not be a problem. I have molded painted parts before and had no issues pulling the part out. After I make a mold and cast a copy, I will be updating the tooling of it to match what I have designed with The Plague Wars line...

    I Need Help!!!

    I have, with respect to the torso, I don't think he has all of the pieces to it. As for the head, I could have sworn that I had a copy of it in my studio, but I tore the place up looking for it and for the life of me, can't find it. These pieces were done back before I started making molds of...

    Tomahawk/Eaglehawk customs?

    Another idea for this model would be to convert it to a Osprey V-22 (ish) vehicle. I saw that the new true heroes ninja vehicle engines look about the right size for a project like this. Seeing we won't see the Chap Mei version here in the US, a costom one made out of a Tomahawk might be the...

    Hey Guys, I have a quick update for you all. I finished the custom Sea Knight. The stickers from Cobra Stickers arrived today. As you remember, I ordered the Sundowner Sky Striker Custom Stickers for the black "NAVY" and the black "U.S.S. Flagg CVN-99". I got them applied and I have to say, I...

    MRAP's (WIP)

    The best thing you can do about molding and casting is to check out Smooth-On website for listing of products and how too videos. Their products are top notch and most of the casting community use their stuff. After attending the GooCon convetion in Atlanta, I came out of there with a better...

    Thanks guys, That really helped. As Meddatron put it, I too feel more closely to continuity. I decided to go with the color stickers. I did have to order the Sundowner sticker set to get the NAVY stickers and the USS Flagg CVN-99 stickers. Such a waste for only a few stickers ( will use the...
