What a terrific piece of work!
For materials, it looks like you're using, woods, wire, styrofoam and styrene. Is that right? Anything else?
How long have you been building this ISS ... roughly, how many hours?

And how will you support these HUGE solar arrays to prevent sagging? Or will everything just be hung from the ceiling and supported by those wires?

It looks GREAT! Keep on posting these pix!

One Solar Array contain two solar panels of 130x19cm.  8 Arrays or 16 solar panels are needed in the maquette.
