Hi,

See below for the latest work in progress shots. All I have to make now are the face panels for the forward gun bulkheads, the harpoon gun and of course the pilots. Had wanted to get the gun panels finished for this update, but I've had too many other things crop up.

Needless to say the parts are just propped/taped in place and the top and bottom hulls are not mated up as they would be etc.
Anyway, hope you like 'em....

NB: The actual gun barrels will be pre-cut plastic tubing.

Well i hope so Kurt , this looks a kit to really get into and move fast, but i do have thoughts on some electronics via RC...we'll see how Nick casts her and how much surgery ill have to do lol...still gawping at the pics of the master TBH.
Dont know what it is, but anything from TESB, just puts me right back to my childhhood, and i just remember being enthralled by the Hoth scenes and props!
Your putting me back years to a very happy place in time...thank you Nick!

Here's an old Photo-shop of mine with the actual miniature... puts you in the build mode no?

I can't wait to see pilots in this thing!
