This is my completely scratchbuilt Shadow Omega. Getting good pictures of it is difficult due to the finish I used. It's Grey Hammered Paint by Krylon. Once dry it leaves a scale representation of the organic skin texture that is quite convincing when seen in person. The final ship is 23" long, 18" wide, and 9" tall. The entire ship is scratchbuilt from sheet styrene and resin section copies. All antennas are wire or styrene rod, and the spines are resin copies of Sculpy masters.
