USS Titan

[AdmiralGR]

Time to to build the Titan from JayBats

The model looks very pixelated and I can already see the unfold of the model has issues (the bussard collectors def don't line up right.

But hey, it's the only Titan Papercraft I've found!

Bit tricker than I thought it would be. Takes a bit of time to work out where the hell bits Go.

Took to mages to workout where pylons go!

It's great to see these models being built. Thank you for posting this thread, Admiral!

I will try and make my way thru the resources! Thou once I'm back to work I suspect my output will lower considerably!

as yours goes down, mine might go up, as long as I can afford paper and ink.

This is where I got to last night.

I think what's makes this tricky is the 3d model unfold has been done leaving rather large parts that have to Bend in every direction. For example the last section of the underneath of the Secondary Hull has a part that fold over to form prat of the topside of the Hull.

Yes, I too have experienced this. The models are buildable but you have to be careful not to break your fingers trying. I found myself cutting the large parts into smaller pieces which are easier to manage. Then I added glue strips to join the parts again.

 

[AdmiralGR]

Good advice. I'll use that For the next one!

Yes, JayBat's stuff is great but you might have to make a few snips.

Here she is.

Completed the Titan

Didn't really enjoy it as much as previous builds - to much fighting to make it work. Still it's another ship on my sons shelf!
