Hi there Ryan,
That’s a fine ship you have here!
First of all the pics you present in your building notes really help
understanding your work, a nice plus IMO! I wish we could see more often this
kind of post. Good idea you have to take pictures along the construction.
The overall shape of the ship really makes it a Cyclon afiliate. Maybe no
that much P38-ish then.
Beautifull work on the back of the cockpit :
What do you call g-snot?
Cheers,
JP.

Thanks, JP. I’m glad you enjoyed the construction pics. I’ve been trying to do
that my last few mocs so I can share with people how a model can evolve from
start to finish. This is my best-documented model so far.
It was indeed a challenge to balance the Cylon Raider design with the shape of
the P-38. I think I did the best I could, and wouldn’t have aimed any lower than
that.
G-Snot is hard to describe without a picture. I know someone on brickshelf has a
picture of the pieces involved, but I cant seem to find it.
This one is the best I have at the moment. It involves
one of these shoved into
the bottom of a 1x2 (or in my case, 4) brick.
As far as I can tell, Gary McIntire (sp?) created the technique, and therefore
it’s named after him.
Again, thanks!

| Thanks for the explainations Ryan! I am always amazed by the creativity shown here. One more SNOT (morve...) technic in my to-try-and-study note book! Cheers, JP. (20 years ago, 23-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
