Cylon Raider Scar

Welcome to my build thread. This time last year i was building for the Colonial Fleet, this year ... ive defected and taken all my modelling toys with me :roll:

The build will centre around the (reimagined series) Moebius Raider.
The Raiders are the Cylons pet attack dogs, an unfeeling cold calculated killer, the particular Raider i intend to depict is, however, in a class of his own.
Meet Scar, a veteran Raider, said to have been regenerated so many times that he is filled with hatred, an intelligent and efficiant killer, he has taken to using hide and seek tatics, preying on unsuspecting training missions or lone colonial ships after they have become seperated from the fleet, in one on one combat no Viper Jock has evaded his guns.
Join me on my quest to reveal his hiding spot behind the astaroid before another Viper pilot joins the many others on the Wall of Rememberance

A few months ago I saw an NX-01 Refit on my LHS shelf for like $40. I was really drawn to it but resisted. Now they're all gone and up for stupid money on eBay :crazy:

Enterprise wasn't my favorite series, but the design intrigues me.
