Well, it's going to be a first for me: a Studio Scale model My project is to re-create as detailed and accurately as possible this original screen-used model:
Not easy for many things: 1: some pieces of the original are missing from the face and the sides.
2: the inside of the bay is difficult to see...so in terms of accuracy, I'll have to guesstimate the details and the greeblies.
3: some greeblies will have to be reproduced by hand (or moulding if many of the same kind)...I'll count on my fellow RPFers to identify those which are identifiable.
4: If someone can post better pics from the movie (4K version) that would be great to help me i.d. the side greeblies and panels
5: decals are also on the face...same kind of decals (as far as I can see) that were affixed on the Aries-1B
So, stay tuned and a shout to anybody with great pics of the original...wish me luck
