HI everyone.
I'm having some fun getting a studio scale Rogue One star fighter into 3D.
I'm hoping it will be accepted as studio scale, as it should measure about 30 inches when done. I realise it has never existed in the flesh, but this is my "what if model"
I started with the already existing images and loaded them into Rhino.3d program. I work in rhino all the time in my main job, but stayed away from the computer for a while doing a few repair and repaints of clients models, but as there's no way to model this new craft freehand, without a load of messing up and wasting materials. So its going into the computer.
So I've traced the main outline from the current available images, matched the front and rear elevations for sizing, and also adjusted what I've got to match the action image which looks to be from the movie! maybe.
Ill be doing more over the next few weeks before building the armature and cladding in some plasticard skins.
Wing will be adjustable, as I hope they will be moveable, but it doesn't matter if there not as I can keep them in any position.
We shall see what happens on this one

so here are my first attempts at getting the shape into some kind of order, there are many facets to add to these surfaces yet, but this gives an overall impression to the form.
