    It's odd to realize this is only my third Galaxy class bash! Makes me wonder why I stockpiled about a dozen kits.

    It is at SSM, in the On The Bench forum!

    I'm not gonna keep updating the thread with pics, actually. I just wanted to share what I had when I finally got the shape together (I was a little excited :)). Next update will be the finished model. A few more weeks at most.

    Not bad. Galaxy kitbashes/variants were always a favorite of mine. This looks like it has the potential to be quite a tasty looking design.

    Now if I could just scribe a panel line without screwing it up! Where's the putty...

    It does calm you down but after too many "relaxing" drinks your scribing won't really improve.. :rommie: ;)

    Ya know, I HAVE done them in numerical order, on my Galaxy class refit (start at the bridge and spiral outward). But I'm not even gonna TRY this time. :lol:

    So try another pattern - odds and evens, all the prime numbers together, lowest common denominator...

    Pattern schmattern, as long as they're on straight. I keep smearing random ones off from handling before they dry and have to replace them, so that kinda wipes out any CHANCE at a pattern! :lol:

    The real ("real") models don't have a pattern, and a lot of the hatches even have the SAME numbers!

    I think I know why I don't do many Galaxy class kitbashes.

    I'm painting the windows now. Lotsa windows.

    See ya in a few days.

    :lol:
