The light is fading fast so I am doing long exposures which are fab as they bring the light out.

Re: 1-6th X-wing project

Ahh yes the LOOK, we all know the look. I am still in shock at Debs being impressed!! I have supplied my good lady with an oversized Gin and tonic (hollow legs) and as long as cook dinner whilst posting she is happy. Liam now wants me to make the wings! I say NO WAY!! I will never get this thing finished... but wings would cool... very cool....
 
Re: 1-6th X-wing project

Let's face it Dorgs , you may as well make the wings now , you've more or less done all the hard work .( Adopts Alec Guiness voice , " You WILL make the wings and engines" ! ) :lol
 
Re: 1-6th X-wing project

Tell the missus (or the nurse, whoever has all the power over there) that you'll compromise. You get to finish the X-wing completely, but you promise the Falcon won't be built back any further than the chess table. Sounds fair to me.
 
Re: 1-6th X-wing project

You could build the rest of the ship in a manner that breaks down into components that screw or bolt together.. You could have fore and aft fuselage, wings, engines, and lasers. When not being played with ...ahem, on display the other parts would come apart and fit in a closet or garage.
:horse

Remember, this is how "my dad is cooler than yours" happens...:monkey3
