You have captured my brain’s concept of what a space missile boat would be
like perfectly. Perfect size. Your usual groovy colour scheme. Other than the
reconfigurable weapons loadout, My favourite element is the sensors on the
ends of the red pods and maneuvering thrusters. Your engines also look very
groovy. My only negative comment is the use of trans light blue for the
cockpit canopy. That colour doesn’t really flow with a black/red/yellow
design aesthetic - the trans smoke canopies may have looked much better.
|
Thanks Zac!
So glad you like the red pods and yellow sensors, they’re my fav. part too.
Concerning the canopy colour, yeah I sorta agree. I like trans dark grey bubble
canopies but have zero of them! Oh well.

Just out of interest, how long does it take you to build something like this
or the avenger? I find that larger models take me days of full on building or
weeks otherwise.
|
Okay, here’s a rough rundown:
Avenger - Approx. a week, each day I spent I guess an average of 3-4 hours on
it. I could have done it in a shorter time, but I took some extra time to refine
certain things. The engines were the last, but arguably the most challenging
parts to complete. The reason why the rest of the construction came easily was
because I had a clear idea of how to do each section. But the engine put me in a
bind, as I was running out of grey parts. Overall, it was a very fast build,
compared to mecha MOCs.
Paveway - This took only about a day really, and I would say around 5 hours on
that day. A real quickie. ;-)

Man, all of these cool models lately are really raising the bar. I’d better
get off my butt and finish my latest model before the bar raises too much ;)
|
I dunno about raising the bar, but thanks nonetheless.

Great to see this space stuff from you Mladen - hoping to see more!
|
Startin’ univ. in about a week, so the chances of me building something new will
drop significantly. :-(
You too. That “Peregrine” Frieghtliner you built, some time ago, was really
impressive.
