shuttle TYDIRIUM

[lyter1958]

Hi all. long time not been here. since the passing of my wife Deb on may 1st i haven't had any desire to do much of anything. try as i might, i just couldn't. so, i finally kicked meself in the butt to do something. thought i'd start off with the shuttle TYDIRIUM. i had it printed out on regular size paper. it's a slow go and only been working at it for a few days but i need this distraction. so here's 2 picks on what i got done so far and i'll keep ya all posted on how things are going

Welcome back to Zealot. It is always good to see you here! You have chosen a very interesting model. I have been wanting to see a build thread done for quite awhile now. I am greatly looking forward to seeing how yours turns out. I will be watching this thread closely!

I look forward to seeing your build and hearing tyour thoughts about the kit and its fit, and where there may be improvements/modifications needed. I have thought of building this very kit before!

Here you are. The English instruction file is contained in the instrukcja.zip .

A fine start back at it. Modelling is a great hobby to distract you from the woes of live.

Looking to seeing more of your progress, and glad you've kicked yourself in the butt!

well, got all the body frame pieces cut out. some are really thick and oh my poor fingers ..haha.. i forgot on how hard this is on the hands. and all glued together. i like the first line on the directions state.." the model is not simple to build"..hahah.. these are to best ones to do. love a challenge. ok, here are the pic's so far

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

You are making good progress!!!
The harder ones are a great challenge!!!

 

[Revell-Fan]

The end result will compensate for any blood, sweat and tears during the build. This is the best Tydirium model out there. It is on my list (for my Star Wars friend) and I may speculate that this is even the most accurate model of it you can find (aside from the Hasbro / Kenner toy and garage kits).

Building up a good model starts with a good frame, and that frame looks Great!

 

[mijob]

Its a rock sollid frame.

 

[RMantha]

I built that one a few years ago, it is a pretty fun build. Looks really good so far!

 

[Chuffy70]

Love seeing the guts of a model come together, when people look at them they don't see all the effort underneath...

Cool those fingers by wrapping them around a nice cold beverage!

you got that right Rhaven. the hard ones are the best to test yourself on. and they keep you focused. so far the hardest i've done was the Tokyo tower. i don't remember on how may times i wanted to ball it up and throw away.

 

[zathros]

With that framing so true and straight, this will be one fine examply of this model. My old hands have me taking mutiple passes instead of trying to cut thick parts at one pass.

 

[lyter1958]

ok guys n gals.. got a little more done . slow going for sure. just not feeling it but pushing myself to do this.. work on it a hour or two here n there. got the leg bays somewhat done and did the frames for the landing legs. i know, a little at a time. enjoy
