Thanks guys.
I hope ILM pays by the hour otherwise I'd stave to death. It's certainly doesn't seem effortless but it is fun. I enjoy the building as much as the outcome so I take my time and I'm super slow. I also hate doing things twice so I make lists constantly of what to do and what order to do them so I don't f... it up. If I had known there would be so much interest in it as a kit I would have done so but it didn't come up until it really started taking shape and by then it was too late to do so. I've got a couple of scratch builds in mind plus a few kits that I'd like to get out of the way so coming back to this will be a while if ever. The scale is actually 1:35 to match the studio raider so quite a bit bigger than 1:48 but not quite 1:24. I was thinking yesterday while weathering it that it was the perfect size at 1:35 actually. Not too big, not too small. I need to take a picture with a soda can for reference. I know it's hard to judge size without a scale reference.
Thanks, again.
