Its only been 3 years since part 1 (September 2016) but I am back on the Resilient cruiser.
See this blog entry from 2013 Unfinished Old Spaceship model Part 1 for the background story to this project.
As it happens the Resilient criuser part one page is the second most popular page on rcscifi.
Why that is, is a mystery to me but the photos feature on a lot of Pinterest pages which result in clicks coming from Pinterest going to the page.
I have started to detail the upper surface.
I was given a box of old broken transformer toys which took me a long time to disassemble into their constituents keeping the styrene and ABS parts (as well as the screws) and junking the rest. You will see a few of those bits show up on this project.
I also started on the Com tower using one of the small battery powered push light domes for the dish.
I have some other smaller dishes to add to this tower in keeping with the Ep 1 Radiant VII influence.
More soon...
Part3 is here.
