Hi Michael,

You're giving me too much credit. Actually i feel humbled by the many talents on this board. And most of them are way faster than me as well.....

I'm currently building a new mold box for the hull, so should have it dipped in silicone soon.

Cheerioh,

Wasili

Wasili, great work here and immensely detailed.

Out of curiousity, what model of CNC router do you use? and what CAD packages? and more importantly what wold you recommend to somebody starting out for the first time?

Many thanks and keep fighting the good fight

I wish I could ask to be put on the customer list for one of these but Real LifeTM says otherwise. :cry :unsure

I've not seen the master hull all together before (somehow missed that :confused) but the WIP of it all together is just wow:lovefactor 9. Definitely going to be the best kit out there of this cool looking machine, by a long way I would say.

I hope you don't mind me asking wasili but what is your occupation? . Just wondering what your set-up is for doing such an involved build and how you find the time. :eek

And a vacation it was. Never realized the difference between 'vacation' and 'holiday', thought they meant the same..

Anyhow, back on the force.... The APC that is..

Keep rockin'.

Lol, Wasili in the U.S. if we go away for a few days like a week we call it a vacation this up coming Memorial weekend is considered a holiday. You were gone for days so you were on vacation Lol hope you rested so you can get back on that APC.

Any update on this?

Re: Aliens APC - 1/12 - ** 33rd update, page 15 **

Heya guys,

I've been assembling parts for the finished models. Had to order new silicone for further molds. When that shows up, i can continue to make new parts.

Cheers,

Wasili

Is this project still going to happen? Not seen any update pics since February.

I would really like one of these models. Wasili, do you have any idea when kits will be ready to ship?

Keith.

Re: Aliens APC - 1/12 - ** 33rd update, page 15 **

Heya guys and gals,

Sorry for the long breaks in between updates. I've started working at an epoxy composite company, making large maritime structures. And that is way more labor intensive than i thought. I do however get to handle epoxy and carbon on a daily basis, adding that bit i needed to push on on the APC's.

I'm currently gearing up for the last boost to get the APC's to final ground. It's taken way too long to get to this point, for which i apologize.

But i'm sure people won't be dissapointed by the result. Although i cannot say for sure when the next update will come, i am trying to get it up asap.

Keep rockin'.

Cheers,

Wasili

Thankew! Sounds good. Would appreciate a shipping/tracking/wotever number please?

Ta for the kind words. Unfortunately I destroyed the helmet in a road accident - still have the collar but never got around to making a replacement lid.

Wow
This looks great but why 1/12 why not 1/16 so you could put some figures with it.
