Re: Scratchbuilt Star Destroyer 1/2222 scale
I've been avoiding this thread. I'm at must-follow-thread overload already. Dammit, why did I click on this?
Amazing work, Scratchy.
Thanks Nwerke!
Many thanks for the images that you posted:thumbsup
:eek
I was looking though this, thinking it was pretty detailed... then I saw the fiber optics. :confused
All I can say now is..... Holy crap. You, good sir, win the internet.
I'm happy that you're enjoying the WIP pics Zurginator.
Very impressive especially the inside lighting and detail keep it up

Thanks Akuma
Hard to believe this model is less than 3 feet long. It appears ti be MUCH bigger. You have tremendous talent and dedication sir.
I wish it was bigger, it would b easier to work on. However, this size is a good "shelf" size and will compliment some future 1/2256 kits that I picked up.
Thank you all for the kind and encouraging words.
Some work on the flanges that's on the spine.
I tried to find some "T" plastic strip from Plastruct and Evergreen that would fit this area, but neither companies make anything small enough. I purchased some Plastruct ABS TEE 90081 for the edges of the spine though and it looks to be a good fit. For the flanges, I cut some .010" styrene into 3mm strips, scribed, and glued pieces to the spine.
I used some .010X.020 strips from Evergreen, cut four seperate pieces and glued them to the 3mm pieces
I continued the same technique for the back end
I'm really looking forward to detailing this area, and the front where I glued the Flak carriage to the neck
