StarshipBuilder.com was founded in 1997 about the same time as other popular SF sites like StarshipModeler and CultTVMan.com. Originally known as The Starship Builder's Guide, this site was one of the very first to offer an interactive forum for its members.

StarshipBuilder.com provided a popular community for science fiction modelers. Folks could go behind the scenes on their favorite science fiction show or movie for info on the design and construction of famous Hollywood starship and SF studio miniatures. We provided valuable how-to information not only on science fiction modeling in general, but also on designing, blueprinting,and building replicas of favorite SF subjects.

After more than 10 successful years on the Web, I decided to close the forums. This decision was not made easily, but it was time to move on and focus on other things. I will always treasure the many great friendships that came about because of this site. I met a lot of really great and talented people, and you had an amazing impact on my life.

I've remained busy with projects, mostly sci-fi but also some related to modeling airships. I launched a new site, www.AirshipModeler.com, which is currently the only interactive Web forum devoted to modeling airships. I plan to re-launch this site in the future as well, so please stay in touch.

Sincerely,

Charles Adams

BEWARE OF IMITATORS

Sadly, I now have to post notice that someone has started a site with a name very similar to this one, possibly in an attempt to capitalize on the success and popularity of what we built here. This new site, starshipbuilderS.com IS IN NO WAY AFFILIATED WITH me, this site, or the StarshipBuilder name.
