That is really awesome. It looks great. I have one quetion though, is it me or does the plasma weapon look like it sticks out too far, or is it because it's mounted temporarily? Anyway, I'm looking forward for this.

Yeah that was brought to my attention by someone else too, I'll redo that part and make a new mold for it.


I got the light blocking silver coat on.

 

[REL]

I know it's not cannon, but I made some vinyl aztec templates.

 

[REL]

Starting to do the paint.

Hi REL,

Great job on lighting both the nacelles and the windows on top. Nice paint.

Just curious, but I do not see any windows on the front.

 

[REL]

Thanks. I hadn't removed the mask's yet in those photo's.

sO - tIME FOR AN UPDATE YET? (dANG cAPSLOCK!)

 

[sapper36]

Can we get an update on this - They were supposed to be shipping by the end of this month.

 

[REL]

There was a small problem wtih the decals, nothing serious. I could send yours now without the decals and send those later if you want.

 

[sapper36]

Thanks for the response - You can just send it all together & save some postage. I was just getting itchy to see some more! How long are you thinking till the decals are ready?

Thanks, Todd

 

[REL]

Shouldn't be long, the first casting I sent out to the decal maker was pulled from the mold too soon and warped during shipping so it was unusable as a template to make decals from, so I had to send another one.

 

[Smiling Demon]

WOW, that's a damn nice ship!:thumbsup

I love the sztec painting. Looks great overall!!

Super nice job REL!!! What are the dimensions on the finished kit?

 

[REL]

It's 18" wide.

 

[REL]

Almost ready, they're curing now.

Here's my own decal I'm working on, this was one I made for just the bird on the bottom by itself with no other decals and I used the McMaster's drawings as reference.. I've since designed it out to tie in with the other decals on the nacelle etc. I've now learned to make my own decals with a laser printer and I'm very happy with the results, so in the future I'll be making everything for my kits from A to Z.
