• Colonial Movers
• Colonial Gemini Freighter

All 3 models feature heavy use of TECHNIC® pieces, the only pieces allowing their tricky constructions. They're another example of how important it is to spread interest and skills in other techniques besides general building and SNOT. Be sure to check them out!

10.03.2007: 3 New Cylon MINI Models! There have been 3 MINI model updates today! And all 3 models are Cylon ships, counterparts for the Colonial forces. Listed below are the new models, don't miss them!
• Cylon Base Star
• Cylon AB Raider
• Cylon Tanker
The Cylon Base Star is a tricky construction of two identical sub-models, held together by a 1x3 technic liftarm in the center. The top and bottom dishes are a regular pentagon! The AB Raider is a new class of Raider seen in the 2nd season of the classic series from 1980. The Cylon Tanker is a commonly seen Cylon transport vessel, which is a more simple design.
03.03.2007: MINI Model Update! Check out the updated Battlestar Galactica! It is much more detailed than the old version. The new version features open hangar bays, and accurate support cross beams to hold the hangar bays. The middle support is offset and closer to the first one, like for the real model. Don't miss it!
26.02.2007: New MINI Model! Third day in a row, third update! Today we are going to see the Colonial Shuttle, a widely used craft to shuttle between starships or to land on a planetside. Although it's a very small model, it is very detailed, and features correct cockpit angles for example, by using a nice SNOT-trick inside. Check it out!
25.02.2007: New MINI Model! Another but lesser known Colonial fighter craft from the original 1978s series appears in the episode "The Long Patrol". It's called Scorpion, and is similar to the Viper, except that the wings are not angled and the top engine is missing. This model uses two different 1x5 pieces which prooves the importnace of such pieces.
24.02.2007: MINI Model Update! The Colonial Viper has been updated to represent a more movie-accurate model. Key piece is an 1x5 technic liftarm where you can stick in studs from both sides. Also the top engine is properly represented by using a modified 1x2 brick. Have a look!
18.02.2007: New MINI Model! The colonial land vehicle of choice is the Landram, a solid and sturdy tracked vehicle which provides perfect cover for the colonial crew. It can be seen in the original pilot movie of the TV series of 1978. Be sure to check it out!
11.02.2007: New Site! Finally a new site has been designed for the Battlestar Galactica MINI Models made out of bricks! The new domain is bsg.deckdesigns.de. It is part of my new LEGO® site, but is a stand-alone site on itself. Welcome to the new site!
