But it doesn't look like it's going to be a kit.

What's size of it?

Looks awesome.

And YES, Blackbird a little respect for a MASTER builder is due not to mention respect for procedure. Uncool to dump in a thread like that.

Randy is a phenomenal artist. I can't wait to see how it looks with the interior assembled!

Anyone know how clean his kits usually are?
Looks clean. Looks like a quick build.

pretty clean..........always a bit of flash cleanup, but generally everything goes together nicely.

Well in The Galileo Seven, Kirk say "a 26 foot long shuttlecraft."

So 1/26th.

little need to remind anyone here of this but just so I can sound like a good Trek nerd.....

outside scale and inside scale would have to be different because the inside set would never fit into the fullsize mock up.

Amazing quality and minimal flash. Resin virtually on a par with SAW's.

According to some, YOURS is better than Randy's. :cool

I will say I have been following yours for a while and it is FAN-TASTIC !!
thumbsup:thumbsup
I hope I can make my RC Kit look half as good.
(of course it will be half the size)

No. It is greatly appreciated.
There is plenty of room in this sand-box for two shuttles.
Besides, I am sure seeing yours will inspire more people to buy the RC kit.

Randy is very busy and has no time to read the boards, but he did request me to send him a link to your thread because he heard such good things about it.
Havent heard back yet tho.
