The ship was the best thing about the film.
And you're one of a small handful of folks on the board who can make it happen.

I loved the film but I still agree with this. And if anyone can do this ship justice, it's TheNylonGag.
Off to a great start, can't wait for the next update.

I seriously considered a 2-3 foot long version of this a year ago. I'm so glad you're doing it! I'll keep a eye on this one for sure.

Ello,
Thank you so much friends for such positive works from builders who's work i admire so much
Thanks for the links
Well enough chit chat........everybody comfortable
Then lets go......
Had a few foam spots to fill,
Sanded with 80 grit on a sanding block for basic shape, we will get finer later, righ now i'm only interested in basic form
Installed two tubes to begin the internals for the rear section, cut to length and screwed in place, with a spacer cut and dry fit on the very back
Added some more foam fill-ins on the rear
Marked,
And cut the forward bulk head
Marked, cut and boxed off the rear section of the forward bulk head
Main body ready for epoxy resin sealer layer
Painted with a layer of resin and left to dry for 24 hours
Marked and cut 1/8 thick styrene to position as key blend/ transition points
Boxed in the forward neck section with 1/8" styrene sheet
Started to box in the rear section
Front,
Back
Bondo'ed up ready to sand
Gunna let it dry real good and then give her a bit of a sand
But thats next time folks
Until then
Stay frosty
