There's still some touch ups and such (sealing some light leakage, repainting the original red panels the dark blue I've chose to go with the gun metal as my personal colors), and stuff like that, but I wanted to share this now. Having a baby any day this week now, and I don't know when I'll get another chance to post!
Millennium Falsehood 's started his a few days before I did mine, but I think his will turn out to be pretty **** awesome, especially the bridge and such. I'm excited to see it when it's done! His build log definitely helped me when it came time to disassemble mine!
I'm still relatively new to modding and painting ships, but I'm also pretty happy with how this turned out, particularly the texture of the engine colors and integrating the switches into the underside of the hull.
I also plan to do an article for A Few Maneuvers like I did for my lit YT-1300, but that will take a bit longer. I have all the images and such from the build process, but I haven't sorted them and written anything up yet. Millennium Falsehood's build log should give you enough to get started though.
