Okay Friends, Another long day with a bit done. So long process making parts that are very involved now when I look at these they look mostly like leaf springs under a old truck, but they are the skeleton of this ship. I have four long ones still ahead but I will do all the holes first then the 4 long ones as I do these holes I will also be boxing them. Now some areas behind the skeleton you will see workings of the ship fuse boxes tubes wires pipes wow. Now that I am one whole engine short I found something else to add which I am going on and making two new engines I will share a couple parts I found and needed the rest is cake. Also you can see where the cannons have been boxed. Thanks guys for all the likes and comments lots more to come as said the ride is just starting to move Hang On Enjoy
I know the first 4 or 6 look out of line but they are inline with the ship and how they screen look This is why I gave 2 pics of this they are in flow with the ship I even double checked
Okay a couple of new cones for the back and I love them they are going to look so cool
Okay Guys back to the old shop in the morning lots more going to happen and Thanks once again for all the likes and comments

Okay RPF Friends, What a day cutting and making, I now have all the holes done except for baby Yoda's I will have to hold off on that one till I figure out how I will build his perch. Now I have to figure out how deep the cock pit should be, so to hold a 12 inch figure, yep boxing in the cock pit area. Which I will have to work all this out with the perch, I do have a ideal. Here is a bit of todays happenings today was kind of off and on watching a couple grandboys can keep ya busy. Enjoy

So I got the just of the engine, and I know which way to go I did make the upper part of the engine I just want to show it in the ship. It took me a bit to figure out how to make the upper part then it all came in place. just finding the parts that would work then bam all in my hands it needs a bit more completing bit more shaping the on the ship. Sorry nothing to share today but look out its almost there, next post I will have a bunch to share.
