Original Tempest making photo salvaged

[yuumi2891103]

More than sixteen years ago, I built the first kitbashing model, 'Tempest'
I had posted those photos of the making on the Starship builder forum. At that time, I uploaded the images to Photo Bucket. Later, Starship Builder was closed, and I transferred to this RPF to upload the rest of the build. At that moment, almost 80 percent of the build had been done. Later, the well-known 'Photo Bucket ransom incident'. So, most of the photos I uploaded to Photo Bucket have gone. I gave up on them, and I have used Google Photos till now.
A few days ago, I happened to find that all the pics I thought I lost were somehow stored on Amazon Photos.
So, here are the photos of that. That was so long ago, and my cell phone camera was not so good, but if you enjoy those pics, I am happy.
If you have any questions, I will be happy to answer.

My Katsu sense must be tingling....
Just a few mins ago, I was thinking, I wonder if he has posted anything recently. I need to go check....and then it says you had posted this 3 mins before.
Maybe thats creepy.....lol.
A lot of awesome work, and we can see how much you have also improved over these years.

I hope that I might have just gotten a bit better over all those years.

I am so glad you found these photos and re-posted them here. A couple of them have turned up on Pinterest in starship searches or kitbashing searches, and I have tried to look for the complete build but never found them. Thank you, Katsu-san, you have made my day happy!

Seeing those pics makes me think that your design and greeblies were already top notch Katsu-san
