Great work as usual!

You have pretty nice reference material to work with, thanks to Jon Billings who'd made some great pics of the original miniature...

Absolutely! I could not have even begun to work on this project without those references.

Let's hope that a lot more reference pictures of this kind will see the light of day sometime soon...

Thanks much! It is my hope that maybe one day someone will take these schematics, plus the source images of the original miniature and maybe master a resin kit out of them. That would be nice. :)

It amazes me sometimes what Jon does, good and bad, and if he wasn't a friend/enemy I would really thrash him...haha...just kidding, but Awesome work you have brought to the table again. Now hurry up with the rest so the thing can make a touch down run at the Galactica landing bay again.

Thanks all for the kind words! I managed to find some extra spare time in between other tasks to knock this one out. Hopefully, it will meet with everyone's approval. I did some major tweaking here and there to get everything to line up correctly. Damn perspective distortion kills me every time I do one of these, but I think I did a serviceable job. Also fixed the engines so that they're proper Saturn V nozzles, instead of the simple, more generic look that I started with. Gonna take a break now... :)
