40" 1/2 ISD scratchbuilt [Painted !] updates 10/21

I have been watching this thread since the beginning and your work truly amazes me. I am blown away by your dedication to detail. It is impressive that you are even attempting to match kit parts where possible as this is quite a task.

I can not wait to see how this turns out. Good luck...

This thread, among others, is the whole reason I wanted to register over here.

I wanted to tell you that this ISD is absolutely amazing. Simply spectacular. I can't wait to see your next batch of pictures.
 
I gotta say im just running out of superlatives on this one bro, i just got ya PM and im sitting here waiting for the new pics of the top hull :) Oh and bro if i could build and see things how you do, id throw my airbrush and pastels in the trash and get someone to paint my stuff for me, the trade off would be worth it lol.

The superstructure are almost complete, but I have to put the fibers into the very right side structure before adding the last details.

I have some work to do on the upper hull but, I hope to get it primed before christmas . :D

Anyway, thanks a lot for your kind words guys . =)
 
Holy $%*& bro, she looks stunning. Julien iam humbled indeed as looking at that in progress is like looking at the ILM mini. The detailing is just superb. Be proud bro, this is the best ISD ive seen so far. :thumbsup

Monsieur Tox thanks for the kind words on my speeder over on starshipbuilder.com :thumbsup This work is an example of passion.. Forget about all the nice pictures of the work........ it's like racing the Indy 500 for months and months, he has to concentrate every time he sits down to this thing..... it really is amazing :D I like to build as well, I understand more than the fantastic pictures..... I understand the journey and the work involved, like many others here.
