Nice looking drop ship! I can't tell from the photos- is that the "Bug Stomper" or the "Smart Ass?"

Your patience, skill, and perseverance are inspiring and your work never ceases to amaze.

Cool.

I should have built mine with the bay open, too, but I was afraid that the filigree parts would break too easily while being transported. So I decided to build the "bye, bye, Alien Queen" variant instead (bay door closed, airlock door open).

This is beautiful work. I'm just starting my own example and your build will serve as a good guide.

One question: You are building at 200% original size, correct?

Thanks for the inspiring work.

I would re-fashioned in two things: Sulaco to the A3 would be increased only by 25%, suggesting that it should "only" 2.2 meters dýlku. A final scale A3 model, this coefficient is also changed downward, so it came out somewhere around 1:365

That takes the cake!! It's the Bomb! That is one bad A.s...Muth..A....F....really excellent addition to your model!! :)

That is a complete kit, scene, diorama, in itself!! That would upscale nicely. I could see that mounted in a ceiling, with the right lighting, and being very effective! Wow! :)
