Almost 3 years to the day after initially sharing my BSG MOC (here), I've finally finished a fairly major refit of the design to improve visuals and proportions and include a cool engine tweak that one of the builders of my original came up with (EzraTPrice, take a bow!), and I have invested the time to produce step-by-step instructions (slightly over 600 steps) for folks who are interested in building this new version for themselves.

Model Statistics
3,493 parts (with 4x4 dish only)
3,497 parts (with Seal of the 12 Colonies disc)
18.4x51.0x24.3 (cm) : 7.3x20.1x9.6 (in) : 23.1x63.8x30.4 (studs)
~2,482 (g) : ~87.5 (oz)

Compared to the original, there are structural and cosmetic changes to the head, neck/body, landing bay pods, engines, and the stand.

Lots more pics on my Flickr stream!

The instructions are available via Rebrickable.

Amazing build!

Wow. Just... wow. This is absolutely stunning. The way all those curved slopes fit together on that tapered front section is so well done and aesthetically pleasing. The whole thing is beautiful. Hats off to you mate!

Thanks! I've added a few more renders on my Flickr:

And one with flight pods extended on the stand for comparisons to the shot in the first post:

Oh my gosh! That is an amazing piece of art and I am very impressed! Give him a huge round of applause, folks!

Beautiful, I just finished the show and have been lookong for a decent galactica build. This is perfect.

VERY impressive! I knew someone who actually built this. I need instructions for the battlestar Pegasus in this scale! It will become my desk, and I don't mind at all!

Wife not gonna like that I found your MOC! Very impressive. Will visit your page for sure!

This Will go nicely with my David Duperron -  Flickr Colonnial Viper MKI & II

Thanks! Hopefully you'll be able to get the Beast later this year:

If you build it, share some pics! David Duperron's stuff is awesome, for sure!

To paraphrase Dr. Ian Malcolm: "Life, uh, finds a way - to get in the way". 

No progress to report since February - other than microscopic improvements - sorry folks. She's still a headless beast!  

Life has been getting in the way for months... TL/DR version: they say moving jobs and moving house are two of the most stressful things to do - I decided to do both, moving to a new city 1,000km away, as well... 

Even when I finish the initial design, it will take months to make it realizable as an instructions package. I suspect the modular approach I took to get the "body" of the digital model I have just now will need a complete build-step sequencing overhaul to make it buildable in the brick, from the core outwards. 

I'm really appreciative that folks are excited to see this design done and want to build it for themselves, but my brain just doesn't have the room for this project just now!
