B747 Shuttle Carrier, NASA-2

B747 Shuttle Carrier, NASA-2 is now up with the shuttle, Enterprise, from AXM, originally at 1/144 but now downscale to 1/300 to match the NASA-2 (to be shown in the next post).
I believe that if Murph designs his own shuttle, it will be much much better. And I'll be the first one to buy it!
From my experience in building the shuttle, I think that the AXM shuttle has a lot of room for improvement in terms of design of parts and building instruction. The most problematic is the nose section of the shuttle and then the wings when joining the fuselage. Perhaps that's why out of the four instructional pictures, not one closes in on the nose part, especially view from under. I don't want to be too critical, perhaps it's my poor craftsmanship that didn't do it right.
