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 focus more time on designing and building models. 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 very busy with a number of 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 just as soon as I can gather images and info on some of the projects I've been working on over the last year. Please stay tuned!

Sincerely,

Charles Adams
