Minor detailing and armor plating on the front.

Engines are already wired with blue lights. Will frost and light up the bridge with white lights next.

What color should it be? part of me says rust.

Paint is finished. Now I'm just waiting on electronics to light the bridge and engines.

I was not the builder for the Action VI. It's a kit from Timeslip Creations.

Are they selling kits? The "models" link on their site is broken.... :(

This model fits onto a CR90 base. I had kids and am forced to part with things to pay for diapers, formula, etc.

If you are interested in making me a offer for this model, please PM me.

wow, this is really amazing - did you make this out of some kind of card, or what?

I used some kit bashing and polystyrene sheets. I wired the engines with lights if someone wanted to light them up.

Have you wired her yet??

The engines are wired, but I have not installed a battery case yet. Kids eat up so much time.

I'm going to sell my epic ship kitbashes and scratch builds. I'm moving, so I'll sell them to whoever makes me a descent offer. Otherwise they're going in the trash because I don't have the space. PM me if interested.
