great build
so do you toothpick your glue and use acetate glue and stuff like that?
i saw someone post pics that used bobby pins to cinch parts together while drying. i couldnt beleive i never thought of that.
mini vises.
i need to rebuild my uhu 1701r in stenciled card board , and then label print the model and go over it, the top saucer warbled. and i have to remember to make the cardboard stature a little smaller when i cut them out. i just cant stand the bends and warbles, and i have built enough now that i have to make them look better, like yours do.
a year ago i could get away with mass builds that looked preschool, but not now.
i have heard of a a few tips,.reflective tape for windows and in the colored rolls, the engines........and this new paper stuff that is indestructable? i havent got any yet, but i will buy some, maybe today, and then let everyone know what this indestructable waterproof etc.....paper can do.
i have even printed on plastic for sale sign sheets in thin laytex sheeting,..but the ink ran, and the it creased wrong, and then it didnt glue right.........so that was a dead end too.
but i have made little thick cardboard underships, that works.
also since i light mine up, i double sheet my cardstock with black underneath the printed sheet, and then glue them, detail the seams, and the cut out the ports , emmiters, ect, what ever is lit, and use wax paper over that or glue it up with clear. wax paper can be folded and show visible lines, as with the 1701 r impulse drive exhaust with a red led behind it in a black light box.
it looks pretty good.
