Each time I see more progress on this it becomes even more impressive. I was fairly intimidated by it before but seeing the details settling into place makes me believe it may be beyond my skill level, although I guess its not as fun if its not a challenge, or huge challenge in this case. Can't wait to see the next update.
USS Sulaco / Aliens
- Thread starter Alien99
- Start date
Alien99-your model is epic, it's "Legen...I hope you're not lactose intolerant...dary!"
Question-How many dropship launch bay are there? From looking at your model, there appears to be two, though my beloved CMTM says it can handle four shuttles at a time. How many dropships does the Sulaco carry btw? The wiki says 8, but I can't find that in the manual

I have been following this WIP for some time and every update makes me giddy. I can see this being my winter break isolation build if its ready in time. I would just like to know the estimates on materials, type of paper and such. Ill admit im a total newbie to paper craft but the work is well worth the time and its peacful and gratifying.
I hope you continue to work at it. i Also joined the designers folding@home team to show support.

44 pages of replies and more than a year of cockteasing by aliens99, surely the release must be near?
The Most Highly Anticipated Model of All Time!
I think we all die a little each day longer that we wait with bated breath for this one. I am about to drown in my own drool, I know, it's not pretty... But you can't rush perfection... and you will not find a more perfect papercraft... EVER. So don't rush the hands of a master sculptor. I'm guessing (just guessing, hoping) within the next 6 weeks. It may sound like a long time, but it is more than worth the wait, and remember I said 'within'.

I hope that the internet lines will not melt when all the downloading will start, all over the world...
You never know.... we may be the ones to bring a total collapse of the internet and the civlized world..... maybe I'd better stock up on paper and ink before that happens!

Hey guys, Alien99 is doing a great work, it's a professional quality one.
This means also heavy workload too, designing a such papercraft means hours of work.
And we have just to wait, so at least please respect his timetable.

I'd Say that's exactly what they are doing. All I see in these update request posts is a sense of awe and respect for this project. The masses have been been moved by Alien99 and are begging for an Encore. This seems like something that would help keep a designer on track. If no one bothered me about my projects, I wouldn't feel as compelled to press on, but that's just me.
As always, Can't wait till the chosen day. Keep it up Alien99
