Roci build No. 3....

Oops. It should say "Roci build No. 3." Darn auto-correct....

Just finished season 2 of "The Expanse" (there's a cool cameo by Adam Savage in the last episode...) and so here is my third build of Michael Grosberg's fine design of the Rocinante.

His model comes in 1/100th scale, but for this build, I shrunk it to 1/144th. The model builds into a fine replica off the page, but I added some panel detail and the battle-damage repair patches we saw on the Roci after it got shot up in the raid on Eros.

I also scribed and folded the lengthwise panels on the nozzle for Epstein Drive to give it the faceted look of the "real" vehicle.

Got my model done just in time for season 3....
