The textures really sold the 'scale' of the structure, very nice work indeed !

Thanks for that treasure trove filled with wholesome goodness !

Ummmm. what he said !

And there's this possibility too..... Yes, I do spend way too much time researching toys from the 1960s.

Looks like it was a reworked THRUSH rifle.

I'm quite surprised that Monogram or Revell didn't do a plastic kit of The Vulture as many other ABC TV programs did, case in point the kit car The Coyote X from Hardcastle & McCormick

Balloning the Tires Perhaps this might help.

Wow ! Simply wow, awesome start to much anticipated finished model ! Hope the attached photos help with the wheel assemblies.

*gasps* Wow !

Very humble words from a very humble man, you the man Mr.Z !

I've not had much success either finding the tiles as a papercraft project other than full color 'flat' playmats for miniatures. What might be the easiest method to replicate such would be to sculpt blueboard as a bas-relief, in that fashion you could manage the depth of detail you choose to...

Any thoughts about having the wall surface behind the mounted model represent the tiled appearance of the Death Star ? http://www.therpf.com/f11/death-star-surface-tiles-48049/

That is something of a problem at the moment, assembling the piece as a whole should not be so bad though, going with the real life item's eight (8) segment panel construction. Hopefully doing this will smooth out that issue. That said, I intend to 'lessen' the difficulty by overlapping the...

This is a first time for me, first project presented to the board and first model rough from scratch as well so be kind please. The Futuro fiberglass house was a curiosity of the late 1960s when mod seemed to appear in all the arts from clothing to architecture. This compact little cottage was...

Don't remind me about how 'useless' my two years of FORTRAN I took at college has become and the seemingly endless hours of keypunch I had to do so regarding the cards Rhaven Black mentioned.

I've always taken advantage of the commercial quality printers at the local office supply stores for any models I've purchased online, guarantees better results than at home and the option of larger scaled projects.

I'll say it before anyone else does, we used stone knives and bear skins to assemble our first mnemonic memory circuits. *smile*

Thanks vbsargent, much appreciated !

And don't forget those drawings were done by hand with pen-pencil & paper, not on a desktop PC with a CADS program !

Really impressive build as such a clever upscale at that ! If one may ask, is there a scale the accompanying action figures are set at ? Politely curious as having such would allow for 'adjusting' other models to equip my nephews horde of similar-sized action figures. Thanks again for sharing !
