Welcome to the insane world of large scale starships. I am also in the early
stages of my project. The ship I am building is going to be roughly 7 feet
long by 2 1/2 feet wide. I have not decided on how high it will be.
I have spent the past year purchasing parts. I now have about 130,000 pieces
to start with. I will be using a design from "DCMStarships.com". Most of the
designs on this website seem to be very lego friendly. I hope Mr. Mueller
won't mind. I have been planning on a project like this for 30 years. I am
40, and just came out of my dark ages a year ago.
Technic friction pins will be used in abundance as this is going to be a
modular ship. After all, I will have to show it off at some of our scifi
shows my club does, and I have to be able to transport it. I imagine it will
take the better of a year or more to complete my project. And before anyone
asks, I do not have any deck plans. Only basic designs from the website. I
am going totally by imagination. More fun that way. I also do expect to be
constantly revising things as I go. I fully expect to be rebuilding sections
until I like what I see.
Anyway, have fun building. Thats what this hobby is all about after all. And
check out DCMStarships.com for an idea of what I am planning.
