New Forum, so now it's time to post my first new build thread
I'm still working on Milleniumfalshood's Stardestroyer but I startded this model as an inbetween, just to have something different to set my mind on. So I'll propably will start a new thread on the Stardestroyer to since I'm building these two off and on.
I found this model on a Polish website and personaly I think this is the best MF out there.
Problem is/was documentation and instructions. This model has so many more parts than Shunichi Makino's MF but there where just a couple drawings included to point you in the right direction.
There isn't a PDO file either so I can't use pepakura to see how things work.
Luckaly I found a buildthread on a french forum with over 140 pictures of the whole build covering all parts and greebles.
So here I go.
I started with the cabin section. I've made the cockpitwindow section in several layers so I could cut out the windows of the top layers to create some depth for the windowstruts.
Here is the finished cockpit section.
Then I cut out the upper front half of the Hull and made the first greeble part that goes under the hull plate.
I have now finished the base of the escape-pod modules and am ready to attach them to the front hull part but first I'm gonna make some support ribs for the hull to strengthen it.
It's just a beginning and I don't work verry fast but I will post updates regularly.
Cheers,
Elko
