Well, it's a bit late. :D The ship's now about 65% disassembled;
everything above the AD in all but the frontmost section. All the
turrets and bridgework are sorted back into their bins. It's amazing,
because I only started about 8 hours ago.
I have, however, been taking photos (usually the distant "in progress"
one, so you can see it slowly vanishing), but I did snag a few close-
ups of interior comparmentation. There's really no way to have a
"sorting meeting" for my ship, because even two people trying to make
bin trips in this apartment would be incredibly difficult and highly
counterproductive in the final analysis.
I expect I'll have the "sadness" series of ship photos, and the "joy"
series of full parts-bin photos. I may in the end need to move to a bin
larger than 15 gal for the grey/dkgrey/tan >4x4 plates! Yay!
So I'm hard at work on taking this bad boy apart. Mr. Sophie, I do
expect you to get to work on your end of the bargain! ;)
