Todays update: The chin weapon and (right) cheek weapon are done. Both of these parts were pretty straight forward (aside from the chin gun barrels which was fiddly as anything lol) but once together i gave them a quick tidy and go over with some acrylic markers. The cheek weapon (launcher?) was...

Annndddd heres the next bit (so far) After much cursing and deep breathing i cut the top rail, hatch parts and hinges. As per the instructions i laminated the hinge parts before punching a (very) small hole through. Once the laminated hatch parts were glued together, i added the two top hinge...

....slips shrinkray back into holster......:wink:

Progress continues..... Got the 'box' buttoned up and began work on the outside details. There are alot of choices here about how much you want to/can add so referring to more pics i went along with keeping it very close to the movie model - i think the only addition at the moment is the two...

got a bit late to upload last night but managed to get a bit more done. The front and centre dashboard was cut put together and then in place, next the seats - i carefully cut the seat belt harnesses from a spare copy and glued them on before folding, gluing and tidying. The centre console...

So got a bit more done on the cockpit - im pretty much doing the build in a straight forward manner but thought id do a little greeblying here and there :wink: - so i printed off a few extra pages so as to cut out any detailing parts i want to use. As you can see by the pics ive cut out the...

So we have a start - the rear panel of the head/cockpit/top box - layering/laminating parts 66 to 69(70) to 1mm card, carefully cutting each part with a scalpel before gluing each part in place. A small beginning but a beginning - the next step will be the cockpit interior (walls, seats...

:cool: thank god for that......lets hope its not shrunk TOO much....lol Once happy with a pose Ill be fixing the AT ST in place as it will be part of a diorama (more to follow on this) But ill try and make her as sturdy as possible anyways :biggrin:

and so it begins.....got all the pages printed and ready, ill be starting with the head and working through from there. As it stands i dont plan to do much modding wise, there is great detail in this kit that should sit well with the overall diorama itll be a part of :wink:

lol .....i know of no such 'Mr Shrink'em Ray'........:noteeth: to be honest, if a group build started to turn into a pissing match then it would be over, from my stand point - the idea was there so people could have fun, learn from each other and maybe produce something Zealoty at the end - no...

Hmmm quite alot to think on. Maybe a member poll? See if anyone would be interested - what people feel they could bring to the party *ahem-shrinkrayhinhint-ahem* :drinksmile:

Ahh wisest of wise ones i thanky--ohh you get the idea guys lmao :smoker: The thought(s) i had were something i probably shouldve been a bit more specific about but i get where youre coming from. My thinking was along the lines of *for example* a card kit of a 'Star Wars' ship again *for...
