Havoc Marauder from the Bad Batch

[Chuffy70]

At last I was able to print the 19 template pages. I had some trouble with my printer. I had to clean the printer head manualy.

I used to have a wonderful printer, but since its demise all the predecessors have been an absolute arse!

All this modern blue-tooth wi-fi rubbish causes so much frustration, in the end I just have a cable now, less hassle and nearly trouble free...

The machines think they are sooooo much smarter and cleverer than humans until they need our help...

Glad you got printed, looking forward to seeing your test results

Started cutting the first part. Its a nice start cutting 1mm grey board. I need a total of 10 so you know what Im foing the next couple of evenings.

Do one, have a beer, do another, have another beer... repeat until drunk!

Yep. Again, it's the "Havoc" Marauder. This model should come with a warning label.

After three evenings the parts are cutted. Its a real blade killer cost me six blades.

Not sure why this slot is bigger then the others. I guess its a mistake.

Everyone loves a big slot!

Nice work, look forward to having a go at that...

I will send you the template if you want to beta test build it, but keep in mind not all the parts have been tested in the alpha build.

Big slot for big coins.

Started to gleu and cut the next parts for the internal formers.

Also I glued the wing arms on cardboard and these are waiting to be cut.

When I have cut the parts I can assemble the internal skeleton.

Another nice cutting session to get you knife stuck into

This is what I am afraid of. Every time I see an update I pray to myself: "Please, have mercy. I don't have the time to build even more parts!"

 

[mijob]

You know me, its all in the details. And there is no such thing as less is more.

 

[Revell-Fan]

True. But I still don't have more time!

 

[mijob]

Skeleton almost ready it looks and feels very sollid. When the wing arms are done I can finish the rest of the skeleton.

 

[Chuffy70]

Good progression, looks very sturdy

 

[Revell-Fan]

This is so strong it's going to sustain a cathedral. Impressive!

 

[mijob]

Its a bit overdone but the end result will be a smooth fuselage surface and a strong support for the wings when moving.

A sturdy construction is always better. At least we can grab it and zoom through the living room with it without the danger of breaking anything. And we have a Wrecker on board.

That looks it is going to be a very strong model through and through.

My kind of thinking... sit it on a shelf??? nah, fly it around the room shouting 'pew-pew!'
