that stuff isnt available over here across the pond. is there another product i could use
Good work Jaitea, it'll be more accurate that way for sure
Was curious about doing this myself, but not good with these parts. Is anyone going to be offering the replacement parts they've created for others to take on this option?
Thanks joberg......the mixture of 5ft &32" bits near the thruster plates just annoyed me,.....but it took me a while to work out the Hasbro ones were just too small
I've moulded & cast 2 of the triangular inserts so I can replicate them......the hexagonal insert on the front quarter I've built & will refine then make moulds of it.....the walls...dunno just yet
This is where I'm at with the thruster flaps,.....just trying to get them all the same:angry.......this is them just set in at the minute

Thanks for looking

Impressive and INSANE amount of work you've put in so far.
Wow that turned out really great!
Again, very clean work with the scalpel, John. Are you using mild heat to help the plastic cut more easily?

John, the deck is looking Soooooo Good dude.
Amazing work guys! I purchased one of these a few months ago and can't wait to get some time to get into enhancing it!
No problems Scarecrow Joe,.....as long as the model has her Adhesion Aid coat on her.......wait....did I call her a model?
Heres a few of the photos like I posted before but taken with a better camera & light....sorry
Making this wee base for one of the Fuel drive pressure stabiliser things (the 4 vertical bits that go along the thruster flaps),.....when its done I'm gonna mould & cast it

This is a cast of one of the inserts,...this allows me to break the master apart so that I can use greeblies again for something further down the line.....still more to do to it though
