Here is what I will do here and there I will do some tweeking ,and so the build goes onward I thinkest it lookest cool. I might have to change clothes after the food party slip off to the shop see what I can tweek. Thanks RPF Friends for all the likes and comments This is why I love sharing Thanks.

Okay RPF Friends I did change clothes and made it back to the shop, I just did a bunch of looking then I worked on the cannon only for a bit. Yep had to do some changing on this there will be more done to this part as it is still in the making process. Also have looked at the 2 big cranes and what kind of get them rite would I have to do and I might have a plan on that, so I will keep on the cannon for the moment and I have the fix for all the rails. I didn't do much with having a full stomach but I did a bit and its looking cool also I have all the grabs I need to get this finished up. Yep you know me I remember the Batmobile build I did and wow I cut those doors to open so I will be cutting something to make it rite. Here is a bit of not much effort Thanks and Enjoy

Okay Friends, I will keep rocking on this it is getting close so I still might have to do some changing up on some parts these spools on the sides even their hanger is going to have to be changed we shall hold on those for now just have to think about all these hacks. I will make me a list no problem with the grabs now if I only had these a month ago and they was there the whole time. Back to the shop in the morning and get busy finishing up a cannon now that I know and can see better what I am making. Thanks and yep I did some more casting

Okay RPF Friends, What a day in the shop. Man I was all over the place on this cannon then it all came in place and I also did some detail on about 3 lower deck rail post, this will make them close. Well as said you know me I also did some hacking. still a small bit of hacking I thinkest. So this cannon, I revisited on that was made and set aside then this one well as said it came in place with the one with the most time, no turning back now, man I don't feel the same. okay just joking Here is some hacking Thanks and Enjoy

Well Friends, I still have another hack, still lots to do and thinking up some of the next parts needing to be made. Back to the shop in the morning more hacking. plus a bunch of making then building. More to come Thanks

Very impressive making it out of wood!

 

[kermet]

Okay RPF Friends, I went in the shop first thing was to get the hack done. Now that I have these detailed screen grabs I will be able to move on with a bit more on spot. So as you see now parts evolving and more detail added this thing is so crazy looking. So I worked on the deck around the cannon this deck got hacked, also I added the poles on this deck along with some details. I had to remove the cranes to keep from snaging on them, I have how ever keep getting snagged on the lantern pole on the front, yep a bit of regluing happening there. still have the cannon to finish up this is a busy part with lots of parts attached to it. Lots more making to happen, I am enjoying the build and when its done I am going to have with drawls form it. I still have Chloe to build. we shall see what will be next as for right now I have to stay focused on getting this done. So Friends here is some messing around in the shop today. Thanks and Enjoy

Well Guys, I still got a bunch to do to finish this cannon and that is my concentration to get this part complete. Then looks like a bunch of detail work Back to the shop in the morning get busy making. Thanks

 

[kermet]

Well Okay RPF Friends, A busy day man I bet I looked at these screen grabs a bunch of times, studying this deflector on the cannon and it took some time but I think I got it. Also cut some parts for the back this is where the seat hooks up at, so all this is still in progress and still a lot to do. I am now starting on the back side plate deflectors all this holds the seat, here is a bit of fun from today. Thanks and Enjoy

Yep those parts there are kind a the beginning of a seat well parts to get out to the seat or say the seat is built off these parts, dang bout got confused there. I still got a bunch of making to do before I have a seat but close. Back to the shop in the morning get to making. Thanks

 

[kermet]

Okay Friends of RPF, I had a time try to figure out this back part I took a pic of all these sides laying on the bench, I was some what upset when I took this pic cause nothing matched up. So wasting very much needed plastic I finely got it. I still have a seat to make and all the parts that connect the seat to the cannon. It takes a bunch of small parts just to make one major part. This all looks long but it is rite on the seat is just back of these deflectors. Thanks and Enjoy

Yep this last pic I was really having a hard time. So a bit of meditation and there it is. Sometimes I find myself with extra parts, oh well I can always use them on other builds, like those x-wing cannons I searched for. Back to the shop in the morning see what I can do next something like a seat. Thanks

 

[kermet]

Seems like I find myself making like 3 of the same part just trying to get it right. Okay RPF Friends, I had to really think on how to make these next parts, this one part took like 9 parts to make one part pieces make a whole part. Yep making 3 I then realized the handles are on the inside so then it all came along. No seat yet but man I am there, here is a bit of getting there. Thanks and Enjoy

Well like I said, I always am having extra parts well other builds ahead. I do thinkest I am boutest to be making a seat. This seat has a bunch going on as well. then after the seat the canopy. Back to the shop in the morning make a seat. Thanks

Coming along nicely

I have often made the same scratch pieces several time, but it is better to get it right than settle for something that will bug you every time you look at it

Yep, I've been in those shoes before as well, and small extra unused parts are handy. Never throw anything away, look at all me clutter. I do need to clean up, I am just to busy making.

 

[kermet]

Thanks Guys for the likes and comments, Okay Friends, this seat was something to make. I did some progress pics of this, and it still has a bunch to go, me old eye type balls just didn't want to stay adjusted. So seat in process, Thanks and Enjoy

Okay Friends, many more parts to make to finish this seat. Also I have been studying this canopy because all this comes together as well. Back to the shop a bit later in the morning, have a bit of eye resting time, cause when I say morning I am talking early before daylight early I just am up early sometimes I like to snuggle in. Thanks

 

[kermet]

Okay My RPF Friends, what a day a bunch of sitting and thinking as well as making. One of those parts laying on the back deck became the head rest. then next thing I know I am doing a bunch of bending and shaping and bam a part quickly in hand and I could not tell you how I did it, one of those things that just happens. Well hope you guys like this thing has been crazy and it still crazy. Thanks guys for all the likes and comments this is what RPF is all about, here is some of the happenings from today Thanks and Enjoy

Okay RPF Friends, I did get the bench cleaned off had to much clutter and trying to see and all the back ground parts laying about made it hard. with a clean bench it makes it better. Back to the shop in the morning see what's next more making to do. Thanks

 

[kermet]

Okay RPF Friends, what a day just messing around and got this cannon all finished and did a bit of paint. Also got the canopy all done that is where the paint went, this part was done before I knew it was in me hands. Here is efforts made today. Thanks and Enjoy

Well Guys, I was just doing a test on this and it worked the canopy is this paper you see on my benches, with a bit of super glue brushed on to harden it some and it worked. I used a q tip to spread the glue around then painted it. This thing is going to be fun to paint. this is something I have been studying as well all the painting of this monster. Sill have a bunch more to do which way I go I don't know till I am standing once again in the shop, so speaking of such Back to the shop in the morning and see what that is. Thanks

 

[kermet]

Well Okay RPF Friends, as for today I shifted gears and instead of making I did another thing I love and that is some painting. I still will be hitting this as I go, I guess in the morning I will be working on those small details around the deck, as I showed it started now to finish. Wow no saying but shoot I had a hard time today after watching Mando last night.....Wow! Okay as said I got busy with some paint, here are the efforts and this is not finished still a bit more as I go here. Thanks and Enjoy

Yep I did a wash of reducer over that shinny on the yellow and it should knock it to a flat, it seemed to be getting a bit flat when I shut the shop down for the night. So a bit of that deck work on that railing part get all that done, then may do a bit more painting. As said this cannon will still evolve with the paint process as other parts start to be painted. Yep that blue paint does look like its light up. Thanks Guys for the likes and love the comments Back to the shop in the morning do a bit of making and painting, its coming along and its big. Thanks

Yep this is also something I have been thinking about you know how the skiff has those clear rods under it I am thinking of doing a worm so it can sit on the side of the walker but not attached, also I am thinking of doing one busting up from the ground with Zeb's arm sticking out of the worms mouth the power cable is what I am kind of stuck on but I have some thoughts.

 

[Hoplitespear]

Amazing build! Looking forward to seeing the end! I really like the scale gives you allot of opportunity to detail.

[kermet]

Okay RPF Friends, Thanks a bunch for the likes and comments, This is what keeps me going, and Why I Love Me Some RPF. Well onward we go, I feel like a lot of wheel spinning today. I seem to be all over the place. I need to focus and concentrate on one area then the next so on. I did a bunch of detail stuff and did finish the rail parts. there are these hand grabs under the front cat walk I never know why they call it a cat walk. I also did the same up on top then some small crane detail. Here is efforts from today. Thanks and Enjoy

Well okay Guys, I have another crazy pipe I have to make and there are 2 side by side they are on the far side of the crane and trying to see just where to attach them, this is my plan in the morning and on from there Back to the shop in the morning and make some pipes. Thanks

 

[kermet]

I will need to hit the canopy with a bit more reducer it has knocked some of the shine away, I don't have this color in flat so reducer will knock the shine down a bit more should do it. Thanks
