Okey! next Update ,alot has happened since the last update i have scratched my previous Build body since i felt it was strong enough.
I designed a new version wich i could cut with the CNC (a big one 2.44mx1.22m) So i was able to have the body sides cut in one go instead o several smaller pieces
Pics at end of the post .
I bought a screenused acrylic panel of the set wich i could use for references and Found several production used files through alot of friends i made here on the board.
so here are couple rough pics of my new version some parts are glued but not all enjoy!
so a small update i have been playing with lights for the hangar bay through fiber i don't have any pictures yet but ill be getting my hangar file altered so i don't have to drill any holes for the fiber optics Will look awesome when its ready
Next up is figuring out how make the horseshoe wing accurate but light ( don't want it crushing everything else)
