Thank you for the compliment.
As for finishing your RED TF, that is why I am making this thread, so that people can follow it and get inspired to make your own.
So get busy.

Thank you for the compliments.
If your X-Wind and M-Falcon are an indication of what to expect, then I would look forward to seeing you build the Thunder Fighter (in any variant).
I know for certain that you would do this model justice.

You really brought this model to life. The detailing you did really puts this model on another level. I think it wold be great as a movie miniature!

Thank you for the kind words and encouragement.
Coming from you, that means a great deal.
I would love to make movie miniatures and get paid for it.

Me too.

Hey, what about making a movie and using props and ships which are only made of paper?

I would love to do such. Do you know of a producer that looking for such?
If so, I would sign up right now.

Right at the moment, I am working on another TF. I will post photos soon.

**Rhaven Blaack** · 07-09-2012, 03:53 AM

To continue this thread, I have started on the BSG Thunder Fighter.
This fighter will have the same detail as the first TF that I built earlier.
So I will only highlight just the detailed parts that I add to the model.
Here are the photos for your viewing pleasure:

Detail of the engine section of the top body half.

Here is the cockpit interior:

Close-up of rear console and side panels.
I recessed the view screen and gauge screen, and raised the button panels.

I recessed the view screen and raised th button panels.

Full shot of the nose of the cockpit interior.

I recessed the dark area at the front of the piece and raised the rectangle that has the dark circle, and dented the circle.

**Rhaven Blaack** · 07-11-2012, 10:57 AM

Here is an update on my progress.

This is the top view of the rear engine section.
As you can see, I have added the same detail as the first on that I made.
IMAG0561.jpg

These photos are close-up shots of the detail and to illustrate how I made the detail.

IMAG0570.jpg

This is the Landing gear bay. I did add a little detail tothe landing gear bay doors

**Rhaven Blaack** · 07-11-2012, 11:07 AM

And still more photos.

More detail on the bottom section of the plane.
IMAG0573.jpg

Here I assembled the back panel of the rear engine section. As you can see, it is not as detailed as the last one that I made. I forgot to add extra parts for the details (and I really did not want to waste paper and ink on just a few part), so I made do with what I had on hand.

The back panel is mounted in place.
