Awesome start, the inside "Park" is so way over the top. Superb!!

Thanks Zathros, amazing what you can do with a small quartz stone & a dish scourer

You're doing great so far!

I continued with the deflector "supports" (dunno what else to call them?)

Those are the space-energy sensors.

You really conquered the dimensional potential of these parts.

 

[Cybergrinder]

Thanks DC!

To continue with the forward section of the hull. Park land inserted into supports




First section of the hull on, you can see the LED covers I built



And this section completed



Lights test!



Deflector attached

I then started the shuttle bay



Support structure for the rear of the hull



Inside of the shuttle bay



The internal assembly in the supports. For this part ignore instruction numbers and you can figure it out from shape



Test fit



I deceided to reinforce where the pylons attach, so here you can see that, and the wiring for the shuttle lights.

This is coming together very nicely!!!

 

[zathros]

You have to cut out the windows in the park and shuttle bay. I see wires, the lighting would put this model so over the top. Seeing that little park through the windows would be so awesome!

 

[Cybergrinder]

@zathros , There's a pic of the park section lit up, just some plastic over the windows

Going for a slightly more subdued look for the shuttle bay

 

[zathros]

Missed it sorry. That section, in it's simplicity, captured everything.

 

[Cybergrinder]

Thanks, that's a huge compliment!

 

[THE DC]

Your build steps and pics are very detailed and helpful. Please keep up this level of information as your thread is as valuable as the model you'll complete.

The lounge you shared is a great boon too.

Thank you for this...

 

[Cybergrinder]

Thanks DC, if the timing's right you might even get a bit of Premier League Football! (Think Newcastle United appear in one of the Thunderbird pics

For the record, It's Man United all the way!

 

[zathros]

What I like about your threads is there are always wires, so you know it's going to be lit up. Very cool.

 

[Cybergrinder]

Thanks Zathros! Blame @Revell-Fan, his suggestion when I started Voyager it was a De-light-ful suggestion

CG, you are our Bling!-Man!

 

[Cybergrinder]

Well, I've hit a snag. The hangars off the shuttle bay project out too far & distort the hull.

Note to anyone who builds this kit - Don't use the additional hangars!



I'm going to have to do some "surgery" & amputate them otherwise the hull will have this bulge just after the pylons.

Got caught up in the looking and forgot to click the "Like(s)" again, sorry!

Thanks for the warning!
