Scratchbuilt 1/2222 Star Destroyer Avenger

Hello all,

Sometime ago, it was suggested by a fellow builder that is on this site, that I should join this community. I've been visiting this site for awhile now and thought it would be a good place to post some pics.

I've been working on this build since February of this year.

Here's the waistband,












An image of the three primary engines and the secondary engine that will be used to cast three casts


The following images are of the bottom of the hull...










These are old pics of the hanger, but it shows the lighting...







The beginning of the build....

Fantastic work - this will rapidly gain (positive) attention.

What is the overall length?

Thanks Dave, I'm threading the fiber optic on the bottom of the hull right now, and giving her that "Porcupine" look.

Re: Scratchbuilt Star Destroyer 1/2222 scale Update Sept. 05/09

Thanks again for the kind words everybody. Right now I'm threading the fiber optics and I've encountered a little problem,.... Finding a correct tool to trim the threads once the paint has dried.

The tools that I have available are a pair of Zona snips, two types of nail clippers, razor blade and a pair of pet claw trimmers (I haven't tried these yet).

Can anyone recommend a tool that can get into tight areas that is good for trimming the threads. The waistband looks like it's going to be a real pain with all the greeblies to work around.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks Robn1, have you used this tool and does it give a sharp cut?

That just might be the tool to get for the waistband.

No I've never used it, but it's all I know of that can reach into tight places other than side cutters.
