Gemini Traveller, Release 1
Here it is folks. The Gemini Traveller is the first off the mark. I haven't tried building it yet but I'm sure it will build just fine. It seems slightly smaller than I anticipated, and there are some small, fiddly parts.
I discovered a problem with one of the parts in the original unfold and had to go back to the mesh to fix it up. I found there were additional parts that hadn't been included, so I added those in to give a nicely detailed model, but left things so that the detail pieces were mostly optional. Some of them are quite small, so if you feel like a challenge you can go for it, and if not, you still have a nice model.
Use some black cord or string, stiffened with glue for the pipe-like pieces at the rear. I wouldn't try the funky paper folding required on those pieces, but I included them again for those that like a challenge.
The attached zip contains both the model and the assembly guide (a quick and dirty one). Please email me with any feedback you have. I'm perfectly willing to update it and release an improved version.

Skupilkinson, please email me off-list and we can coordinate our activities directly. I think that will be more efficient. If I followed the previous exchanges correctly you are waiting for me to get you the cleaned up raider mesh, and I will work on the colonial liner.
