Finally...

This will probably be the final post in this blog... As I stand now, I hope I pass this unit and that Mike Mills has mercy on me for all the work I've put into this... Here's some high-res images of the model.


















As for last feelings? There'd be alot of things I'd do if I did this model again.

Alot of the surfacing felt fat and if I had sharpened up my edges and cut vents/slits and some shuntlines into my surfacing before i cut/mutilated them they would've come up alot better. Another thing I should've done is cast the wings as well as the head in fiberglass so that I could've built a much better armature for the wing attachment so that the undercarriage would be more visable (which was a huge feature of my design but wasn't so visible in my final model due to the wooden armature holding the wings up). Alot more RPs should've been done, especially of details, vents, instruments, interface and a figurine of a rider should've been put onto the model to show scale and to contemporise it (and given that the scale of the model is exactly what an action man figurine would be, this wouldn't have been hard).

However, I'm quite happy with how it went and hope that this passes my transport and that Nite-owl now has a sweet ride that can catch the baddies and look the part. In the meantime, fare-thee-well all!
