Hey people!

I've been working on this model for some time now and I figured I'd do a build log with some voice over rather than a slide-show of the entire build; leaving the viewer to figure out what I did.

So here's part 1! I'll try to do a weekly video for now (until I catch up to where I am!).

Looks like the makings of an ambitious project

 

[Jimi]

love the build video and i cant wait to see more, you say this is the old kit and not the new one; so i take it some of the issues have been fixed then?

looking forward to seeing more soon.

 

[deckem_17]

The only issues I know that are fixed were the window placement and size along the saucer (they are all removed), the stepped grooves on the edge of the saucer (filled in) and the saucer thickness was increased. The increased thickness might prevent that mold injection point problem, but it would be better to grind them off anyways.

The second part is here and is up on my channel.

Hey people!

Part 4 is up!

Here I'll be talking about the assembly of the model and I'll be talking about the pearl colours that I used.

The effect is really cool!

Here's the next part to my Reliant build series.

I started the Aztec work! But of course some misery had to happen first...


Hope you like it!

[Quaralane]

Looking good.
Thanks for sharing your difficulties as well as your successes

 

[deckem_17]

Thanks.

It's coming along nicely now.

I should have a final video up eventually. I'll talk about things that I liked/hated about this model and things that I learned from it.
