After braking the model when putting it together and trying to fix it and braking even more I had to take a brake from this model because I almost threw it out, out of frustration.
After a brake of over a month or so I picked it up again and fixed it.
Because I have to much fiber optics in there it did not fully close to I had to fix some holes this created see pic.

Sorry to hear about the troubles you’ve had with closing up your model Socrates11 . Glad you’ve managed to fix it , instead of binning it though !:facepalm.
Don’t think it was asked earlier , but what size fibre optic strands did you end up using on this ship ?
:cheersGed

Thanks my friend..
I'm also happy I did not let my frustration get the better of me, but I do have to admit that it is hard sometimes.. it is so much trail and error ...
But I used 0,5 and 0,3 mm and a few 0,75 fiber optics.

And thinking about how some formations could have been created in real life, movement of water.... Plants.. and so on.

I have not been all that well but still found time to work on the diorama. Had a lot of work on building the trees.
Starting to look more realistic each day.

Hey Socrates11 , really cool update mate :cool! ,
Love how you’ve placed some subtle lighting across various points of interest , not only in what look like fissures and caves (?) , but also amongst the vegetation .
Hope you’re recovering well from your health issues and it wasn’t too serious !:facepalm
Thanks for sharing ,

Thanks my friend
And yes they are caves, they will be filled up with water and in front of it there will be water dripping from the falls so there less sight inside the cave but just enough to get a feel there is something inside. In the left one there will be a small sand path going inside... and also a flinkering fire light to give the feeling there is done inside. Still want to make some fish and do a little more vegetation in the water. But there there is already a lot on there but hard to see on the photo. How are you doing with you builds?
Btw. Just ordered from bandai the falcon from the last Jedi and the y wing and slave 1
so I won't be bored.... please don't take me serious I'm crazy

Anyhoo , glad to hear your recent illness hasn’t ‘ curbed your enthusiasm ‘ ! :lol, for building stunning models , I’m sure they’ll keep you happily busy for awhile !
