Yep! Recommend that you do some "research" sometime and watch the series.

Me too!!!:biggrin:

Z - yes this model would be good for kids ( and grown kids:)) with just a little TLC. Thanks for the expert advice!

Thanks MIJOB!! I always try to give some insights with models - especially when there's no directions.:) Thanks for stopping on by!

Yes more room for Teladiadium!

Rear Thrusters - template pre cut - on the left the tabs were cut and at first I was thinking of keeping the bigger tabs Rear Thrusters - The bigger tabs at the top were removed with the small tabs. These tabs are used to keep the thrusters attached when glued to the model. The side tab was...

Front end Attachment - top view - the way the front was designed had a series of cuts at the corner to give a raised rounded shape at the corners. Front end Attachment - back view - Some of the corners had tabs that were attachable and some didn't. Some of the corners that needed reinforcement...

Hey if Jan Rukr (Alien99) can design and build a 12 ft long Sulaco why not go B-I-G. Just saying.....

Thanks Z! I can't believe that nobody else has tackled this particular model - at least in paper. I've found one other version, which is the next one I'm going to assemble. This one really is a conceptual test build. The model builders for the Thunderbirds were really good and their detailed...

What scale are you using? Are the grids in CM? If so, this is really good work at that scale. BTW don't beat your self up too badly. This is a first build and often times when you make something the first time around and see it, you also see what can be improved. Maybe scale it up a little bit...
