Paul, great to see you blazing the trail in refining the build of this model! You got me starting to acquire the necessary kits to build one now.
To be honest Dave I rather feel I've spent more time trying to stamp out the flaming errors my trail blazing seems to have caused more than anything else.I really didn't think I'd have to crack the hulls open again, but its done now.
Really there have been so many well researched builds here before this that I thought this would be an easy thing to get on with. It looked like a fairly simple introduction to studio scale building that owed alot to the many people who had well documented their builds before hand with their good ideas and differing approaches and its hugely surprising to find that its suddenly turned out not entirely to be so straight forward.
But then like most SS models here I certainly would never have made the progress I have made over the years in my many builds if it were not for the constant generocity of those that have contributed tremendously to this hobby and forum. Not a chance in hell, I'd still be building the stuff I built as a lad.
And thats why this forum and everyone who contributes to it is so valuable. Everytime somebody posts something new here that they have discovered, be it a small part or a lost photograph or even a better way to build something it lifts everybodies game.And that makes us all better builders.
Can't wait for "Rogue One". Can't wait to see some old familar ships on the big screen again. And I can't wait to see what else turns up for this build !!!!!
