SS Blockade Runner - Tsophika - 07-31-2015

Since that one is still a little further down the road, I took a good look at this guy:

I already ID'd 95% of the parts and finished casting the details for the engines. Tubes are being cut! Styrene is being glued! It will not be brass like the prop but I will be lighting the engines. I'm doing my damndest to make a quick build of this.
Thanks for looking.

That is AWESOME. What a great piece to put next to the big one, right?

Amazing how quickly you have been able to do this - looks great so far !

The engine deck is not vertically symmetrical and I will replicate that.

A quick CAD model to calculate the measurements I didn't get from kit pieces. Those that I did check out. A few form pieces will be grown.

Hehe, now that will be cool..

You could almost make that into a kit if ya wanted? :-)

I suppose it could be a kit but not at any point soon. I'll keep this a one-off since we're in the middle of putting out bigger things!
Testing LEDs today as I'm getting ready to wire up the main body.
