Studio scale Tantive IV

[Nwerke]

That's exactly the sort of imagery it conjures for me, too. Tweeness.

"Beast" would be okay. Not as good as 'model', but okay.

Sorry, no more progress yet. These things come and go, and right now i am in a different "space" (girlfriend). I have made the drawings for the engine assembly so i am ready to go when the energy returns :lol

Those women are notorious for taking up men's cave time! Not good enough, Lasse! I can't complain; the GF is an artist, so we appreciate each other's hobbies.

When you are ready to get back to the Tantive, we will be waiting.

Amazing stuff as always Lasse, if you dont mind me asking, what have you used inside the styrene joins to strengthen it?

 

[Themodelshopman]

In order to prevent the outer thrusters from sagging under their own weight i have strengthened certain areas with resin. It really does the trick.:thumbsup

Awesome Lasse, looks amazing.


And yes Beastie should be stricken from every post, and thread. So let it be written, so let it be done.

That things massive, looks great, mold and cast it and sell it as a coffee table.

 

[Themodelshopman]

It is also perfect for going number two...
