Re: Building the 8' Star Destroyer
I will never thank you enough for your kind words guys !
Rob : your're contributing more than with the pics ! Im following with great interest your awesome DS thread and Im taking note on how to do pencil lines !
Scratchy, modeleers, no I wont build any Blockade Runner in scale with the ISD...
Stu, a fellow RPF member (I dont know if I can name him) contacted me a while back to help me for the plexi parts. I sent him the drawings, a few hours laters my parts were cut... I cant thank him enough for his help ! I'd receive the parts by the end of this week !
I have also good news about the domes, another fellow from the RPF did the domes for me. Because of me and of my poor explanations, they were a bit off, so he will redo them... Thanks to him too !!!
If both of you dont mind, I would like to put your name as, I couldnt do what Im doing without your help guys !
Robert, big thanks for those pics ! Ive been able to ID some more parts, one of them is quite big and I was hunting it for a long time but I hadnt good pics of it !
Here it is :
Ive also noticed with Rob and Bob's pics that I did a mistake when gluing the forward hangar door... The kit part was actually cut in half and a strip of styrene was added in the middle to enlarge it. And it's even more clear on the pic with Mike Fulmer building the hangar since this part is unpainted, we can clearly see the styrene strip in the middle :
I'm missing some more bits because of the lack of reference of just because I cant find the right parts. I'll add them at a later stage if I ever find them, if I cant, Ill scratchbuilt them or put instead of them similar parts... From the same kits used on the hangar of course, I dont want to betray the ILM's work.
Some pics with a primer coat :
Thanks for looking !
