I think its time to start working on this again. This thread was 16 pages back and 5 months later. After moving here to Idaho and living a few months with my Grandpa, which was quite tricky, him being 90 and all and not quite seeing eye to eye on things. I've now moved again, this time only 20 mins away. My brother owns a house, but he had lost his job last year due to the company outsourcing. So after months and months, he finally found a new job......in Albany, New York. So I'm now here living in his house with the roommate he had and where both watching over it and his cats.
Might have worked on this sooner, but Kingdom Hearts 3 came out and was playing that. But now here I am with new updates and what I got done just today. Decided to work on the base for now. And instead of just it being a base for a model, thought it would be cooler if made into a docking bay type landing place for the ship.
So I had bought these weird train tracks at Hobby Lobby in the sale section sometime last year. So I cut them up as seen in the top of the pic....
Glued 3 on each side and added part of a gun turrent on the top. I'll be adding much more detail.
I have all these random parts I got at an electronics store for detailing.
I realized that the long round dowel I have fit through the whiteish plastic part. So I cut it to size and glued it to the yellow part. But kept the glue off the 2 parts so it can move.
So for now, until I add more detail of course, these parts look like this, kinda like big clamps to lock onto the ship as its landing.
But they can also flip out like this as well for a nice little effect.
So thats it for now. Hope I can get more done soon.
