Blake's 7 Scorpio |
By Zoe McHugh |

The model is a scratchbuilt Scorpio from the British Sci Fi series 'Blake's 7'. Not much reference material out there - so this one was quite hard to do! For the general construction I built a frame from lightweight balsa and then proceded to cover the craft in sheet styrene. Once I had the shape figured out, I set about detailing with cut up business cards (hull plating) and various odds and ends from my kitbash box. The ship was spray painted using Warhammer acrylic paints and then weathered with drybrusing and artists pastels. Image: Size reference Image: Outbound from a gas giant |
