Re: Event Horizon

Thanks. Worked quite a bit on this tonight. (What a lovely kit) :

I'm having second thoughts about 'Event Horizon' though but whatever....I just might build it as the Falcon. It will be in flight and I was thinking it just might be cool to have a Falcon in flight and then the Docking Bay 94 as the landed version. We'll see.

No matter what here is what I plan to do to the kit.

~~Thin/notch armor around edge~~ Done.
Scratch build sidewalls
Scratch build cockpit
Detail engine deck
Scratch build top gun well
Detail docking rings
Scratch build engine grill
Light gunwell, cockpit and engines

Not going to bust my head on this. Just have fun and build fast. I won't use any aftermarket items with one exception. I have 2 sets of PE top engine grills. I think I'll use those, seeing how I have 2 sets and they are readily available at StarShipModeler for whoever wants them.
