Happy New Year All!
Hope you're having a great break.
I took a little time off myself, so not much progress to report.
I did manage to finish off modelling and positioning the last of the kit parts for the underside of the ship (apart from the Tyrell P34 shrouds, but I'm awaiting arrival of the kit to scan - more info on that below).
Here is a simple rendering of the ship as of today:
I'm currently in the process of acquiring the kits needed for the ship.
As it stands, I have a list of 30 (not including any that are used on the cockpit).
Unfortunately, some of them are quite rare and hard to get.
I will be looking at around $2K for just one copy of each (and multiple copies of some kits were used).
I have a side project currently on the go which has seen me construct (cobble together) a photographic light tent/box.
The purpose of which is for me to 3D scan all of the kits (by way of photogrammetry), and create exact digital versions of the parts used (well, thats the plan anyway)
My current methodology, of using calipers is fine and works, but I want them to be
exact.
More to come soon.
