Extra time off means a modeling marathon, which brings me to my latest edition to the showcase - The Romulan Bird of Prey from the original series. This model is by Rawen and it is a fun little build. It builds in the same style as his starships and the file has an instruction diagram. I only changed a few things.
On the wings, I kept the tabs except for one side at the base. If you leave them all they seem a little hard to fold in. You can loose all the tabs at the base with no problem.
The edge piece seems a little too long. As usual, I glued from the front/center around and had to trim some off the back on both sides to get it to fit.
I cut the tabs off the base of the Bridge piece for a more flush fit.
The rest was just cut and glue. So, here's the pics - For the Praetor's Glory!
