(...) Somewhere in between. I used Pro/Engineer (A 3D solid modeling CAD program) to create the general shape, and then created cross-sections at 20 stud intervals. I then used the cross sections as scale plans to shape the hull as I built it. I did (...) (18 years ago, 28-Dec-06, to lugnet.space, lugnet.adventurers, FTX)

(...) Groundbreaking as usual Adrian. It seemed like no one at the fests took pics to do it justice. You seem to incorporate a lot more shapely sculpture these days. How do you go about doing that? Do you use any CAD or the like? Or is it all felt (...) (18 years ago, 28-Dec-06, to lugnet.space, lugnet.adventurers, FTX)

(...) Thanks. It's odd, but the nature of SHIPs are always that they appear much much larger in person than in pictures. This airship is over 6.5 feet long, but the pictures just don't show it. As for the inspiration, you're right. This is drawing (...) (18 years ago, 28-Dec-06, to lugnet.space, lugnet.adventurers, FTX)

Adrian, Wow, that looks amazing, and I can only imagine how much better it looks in person. It reminds me of all the Crimson Sky MOcs from a few years ago. I really liked the use of the hangar deck and elevator to get the planes off and on the (...) (18 years ago, 28-Dec-06, to lugnet.space, lugnet.adventurers, FTX)

Hi all, Here's the result of my latest tinkering. This is a prototype, and I'm still exploring color schemes. Likely the windscreens will be switched to trans dark-blue, for one change. Not sure I like having two CS logos side-by-side on the front. (...) (18 years ago, 25-Dec-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Don't know which one I like better--the original gray and black 6826, or the blue and gray one that I pieced together this morning. Had a fun time making this model. The red space figure fits in well with the vehicle's color scheme. These little (...) (18 years ago, 24-Dec-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)
