Scale Model Internal Structure

[CosmicQuest]

Hey friends. I have been trying to come up with ideas for the best internal structure for my scratch built scale ships. I want to be able to mount them for possible green screen work, in the future, but haven't been able to find good pictures or video of the best way to go about making the internal structures. What methods do you all recommend for this process? Thank you kindly for any information you can send my way

Hey CosmicQuest, that's a bit of an open ended question.

How large are the models that you propose building?

The structure will often be dictated by the size. I'd suggest the larger the model the more complicated the armature would be.

If you're on Facebook, I have albums full of photos showing how I design and build models, several for filming:

Hey Bjorn. To be honest, they will typically be in the N-cale to HO-scale range. So the largest ship I will likely build will be in the 24" long range. So not huge. It's definitely possible however that I could build something much bigger in the future as my work space allows Thank you for your input!!
