Shaping


The shaping is nearly complete. I’m finally cutting around the edges so the panels will come loose again. The pattern on the panels gives the shell a different look. It reminds me of something that happened a long time ago in a galaxy far far away…

Shaping


I’ve been battling bronchitis, so the last few weeks haven’t been very productive. Sanding tends to be bad for already irritated lungs. I’m ready now, with respirator in hand, to start the final sanding and shaping of the foam on the outside of the shell. After that, a coat of hardener and some green paint and then it’s on to the work I’ve been really wanting to do on the interior. Expect more activity here in the coming weeks.
