48" Star Destroyer: Back to Work!
Posted by LeeJustin337 on Sunday, September 23, 2007 11:03 PM

It's been awhile since I've been able to work on her, but she's back on the bench for the next few months.  I've spent the past few weeks re-working some of my original work on the rear engines and getting busy on the detail.  I put a coat of primer on her tonight and am ready to move to the upper deck.

Just before I took the picture, I blew another bulb in the primary engine.  I had originally decided to use flashlight bulbs because I'd get more light and a better spread than from LEDs, but they just burn out too quickly, I'm going to replace the bulbs with LEDs and be done with it!

I'm excited to be back to work, thought I'd share!

this is so cool. I usually do planes or cars but just got through watching when worlds colide and thought i might build a four or five foot space ship from that.

I keep looking at the photos of your build and am more amazed each time I look.  You are the master!  Curious, what have you been using to as glues to hold everything together?

 Thank you for sharing!
