Seven years in the making, this is a video of BuildsByBaz’s lifesize (28-foot) replica of a Colonial Viper Mark II spaceship from Battlestar Galactica. It’s glorious. Could you imagine sitting in the cockpit of that thing making pew-pew noises to yourself? That’s what my dreams are made of. Just kidding,
