My respect to you both! :bowdown: You have both achieved an amazing model! Well done! :CHEERS: The receivers of it will be more than stunned, I am sure!

FAB!

A hairs' breadth from reality! ;)

:surprise:

You are still going strong. Coming together nicely! I tend to build from the smallest part towards the largest part. In this case the finger tips towards the wrist. This way you can still have access for your tweezers as you work upwards. If you work towards the tips, you are in effect closing...

And, back.......! I just realized in my excitement to finish the model, I forgot to take any pics of the engine/landing gear shrouds, and also the clamps on the ends of the lateral spine. The shrouds require some good shaping to get them uniform. Also quite a bit of careful trimming and...

"There is no real ending. It’s just the place where you stop the story." ~ Frank Herbert Added with great excitement, this post brings an end to the construction of this model! :yesyes: A few detail parts, that were left until last to avoid breaking them off, were assembled. First, the...

Your off to a good start! May I suggest trying to edge colour before assembly? I find it a lot quicker, you'll have more control and it's less messy this way. Looking forward to seeing your 'mini beast' take shape!

I feel your pain! When I built the under-construction ring of UHU02s 2001 ASO Station V, (twice!), it was literally; Blood, Sweat & Tears! Your truss turned out great! Next up for both of us....UHU02s Tokyo Tower!! :sticktongue: :biggrin: https://www.zealot.com/threads/uhu02-tokyo-tower.179143/

Your detailing work is amazing to watch! Keep it up master!!

"Love is the only way to rescue humanity from all ills." ~ Leo Tolstoy Next up, the rear deck, longitudinal spine and rescue hatch. The rear deck is pretty straightforward. The two recessed parts and the pre-laminated detail parts were cut out and edge-coloured. These parts were then glued on...

Very crisp and clean! Nice work.

"Aerodynamics are for people who can't build engines." ~ Enzo Ferrari With the bottom engines basically complete, I started on the top engines. The top engines are a little more complex and the build procedure is different. One thing to note here, when cutting out the floor of the engine, the...

I'm not sure my eyesight would allow me to build something that small anymore. Respect!

Great work so far! You have the eye for the detail! I'm following this... ;)

Around Uranus!! :lolsign:

Yes, indeed! A purr-fect place for a cat. I nicknamed her Felix for this build..... :sticktongue: ;)

A nice start. The Voyager program is definitely a testament of what we can achieve, if we really put our minds to it. Looking forward to seeing your build progress.

"There is no exit from the circle of one's beliefs." ~ Keith Lehrer As promised, and dreaded, the beginning of the engines.. The not so circular exits were made up first. The inner and outer skins were scribed, folded to shape and glued...... I forgot to take detailed pics of the next...
