I *think* that I just maybe have finished the coloring. Does anyone spot any horrible errors I need to fix?

WOW looks fine to me

That tiny greeblie right over there should be moved a bit to the left...





Just kidding! It looks gorgeous, Thales!

And now I will see if the numbers stay crunchy in milk, and see just how fast the fans can spin while this starts to render 2d parts. Translation: I'm crunching numbers to unfold it.

This ends up being the most computationally expensive part of the whole workflow. From what I remember of my theory days, it is a O^2 * log(O) set of operations.

1/20 scale correct?

[Revell-Fan]

IF you attempt anything near it, I'd say go for 1/18 then for some Re-Action figures to be put inside.

I'm not entirely sure of the scale... I wanted it to be about 14in long when done. I have it at 31.5cm wide and 41.2cm long...

*googles* Internet says it is 16.3m long... so that makes it 1/39.5... or close enough not to matter.

But the internets are saying that it is 16.3m long and 19.7m wide... which clearly doesn't make any sense as it is longer than it is wider. If that is backwards and it is 19.7m long, that is 1/47.8.

But, I tried to jam parts onto paper this morning and got a bit too aggressive on the cramming and that page had to be redone.

Either way, 1/48 would be a convenient scale, easily scaled up to 1/32-33-35, for use with available figures...
