Thanks Luka...yes, it's rather tricky to make a perfect circle. I'm going to buy black fabric to put as a background; it's going to be easier to see if the scaffolding is a circle or not (I don't see that well on a white background :confused). I'm eager to start the second part of the "under construction" phase.
Thanks for the feedback guys. I'm using plastic corner for Gyproc work (you know those wall corner already L shaped) and I cut them length (no brass, weight is a factor).
I exceeded my budget by $250, so now, this model is at $650...oh well, it was bound to happen:rolleyes
It's SO HUGEEEE! But seriously, where are you going to keep this monstrosity?
Oh, and btw, are you going to make a small Orion to accompany the station???
That's one of the design I'll have to produce for scaffolding (just 8 of those...has to be painted and the background is still being dressed with flooring, greeblies and more scaffolding)
Then there's this one (painted) which is supposed to be reproduced about 10 times. Those are spread around the rim in various state of finish (10 by 1/4 rim, making it 40 to build)...stay tuned, there's spaghetti in the design, more flooring and more details
