If you ignite these and they work, then I think I'll drop right there and then!
I would like to start it up, but I cannot find any cold fusion fuel for it.
Grrr, I hate terrinecold and I hate you!!!
why do you have so many time to build such beautiful models?
Apart of jokes, your level of detailing is very high, I wonder how much time do you spend to build a model.
I have very little time and the tendency to start more than 3 project at one time (and the tendency to leave everething unfinished)... I'll watch out this tread, so can I ask you to put a little "time spent inidcator"
for each part?
I see that you are also building the storm talon, I hope that some of my techniques can be of help to you. As for the time I spend building, well It is raining over here and I cannot do much outside the house. I am one of those who are blessed with being a pensioner (I like that better than retired). I have spent about four hours up the date on building, maybe about ten to fifteen minutes taking the photos and updating and editing them. If I were to have built this stock from the sheets, it would have been finished already. It is hard to gauge my time since I just build and forget about the time. The only thing to bother me, is my Daschund who keeps reminding me that he needs to GO!
and silveroxide, I just bought some styrene sheets and I am thinking about building at least one dreadnought from the other designs floating around with them for painting.
One of my first styrene builds was also a 40K model, the old style Rhino. If you should attempt it, keep in mind, that any piece of material can be of use, such as paper clip wires, Electrical phone wires. Extra parts from a built model and so on. The only barrier towards building a good model, is your imagination. Post it later on in the other things we do section.
As always, you are doing a FANTASTIC job on this model.
Watching the way that you detail the models that you make, always fascinates me.
With every model that you make, I learn something new, and this is no different.
I will be following this thread.
Thanks Rhaven, My method is to impart the knowledge that any model can be enhanced and I hope that some of my methods will come to good use.
WOW!! that was a lot of comments to reply to.
So on with the next batch of photos. The wings are a little too flimsy so I do what I do best, LAMINATE, LAMINATE. Because I changed the property of the original design, I have to insert it into the engine pods to maintain integrity. I forgot to compensate for this and the wings are slightly shorter than called for. If you laminate them, add an extension to go into the slot. Talking about the slot, Make that cut when it is flat. Once the model is three dimensional, you have to be extra careful in cutting the slot out. I also had to make some internal support for the wing slots. Enjoy and see you all next posting. I have a bunch of photos to edit for your enjoyment.
