Sweet Zombie Jesus! Wow!! [wow]

I thought it looked great before. But now, after seeing it all painted nicely and washed.... Words escape me beyond the initial reaction...

I hope you were well-rewarded for your work! I'd have been reluctant to let that one go, Matt!

Thanks Jeffery Big Smile [:D]

I actualy felt a little guilty on this one, it was so much fun at some points it almost didn't seem like a job. I wish they where all like that.

Hey Matt, what ever happened to the interdicter you were working on many moons ago, did you finish it? trash it? ya wanna sell it?

I keep getting distracted with these contracts, makes it hard to finish anything for myself. I pulled it out and hope to finish it. All it needs is a little more surface detailing and paint. But then there are these other ideas rolling around in my head so I'm not sure if I might just redo the whole thing but a little bigger. Just don't know...

Thanks again Steve Big Smile [:D]

No BR for this one. The client and I discused which SD he wanted and he decided on the more detailed Avenger class. Who knows though maybe a tiny itsy bitsy Falcon to hang out on the back of the tower.

Thank you Chris. As to alot of work, yes it is. I think I will be needing a new pair of glasses after all the fiber optics are strung Big Smile [:D]

That and I will probably start setting of the metal detectors at the airport with all the micro drill bits that I broke off in my finger tips Laugh [(-D]

Here is a quick preview of a commission scratch build I've been working on over the last week. It will have full lighting and all the little detail. I just started the top side and tower so there should be more pics in route soon.

See build progress here
