I will be building it one day for my wife who like me is into star gazing, we have some of the most powerful telescopes U can buy on Earth (where else would U go) and look at the night sky every op we get, also I will build a U.S. shuttle to go with it if I can find a 1/40th scale one to do. This is a very interesting build and will keep an eye on it.

I'd suggest scaling up Fortezza's shuttle as it's sturdy and highly detailed. For 1/48, I scaled his shuttle up 208.33%, and I scaled up the AXM models 223%.

After several hours last night and all day today and some time last week I finally finished the solar arrays that have been waiting for months to be done. Not going to lie it took some effort to finish 8 of them but it looks amazing. Over 3 ft wide. It's nearing very close to completion after 2 years:

When I realized that one single solar array would take up maybe 5-6 sheets of paper and would also be about 2 and a half feet long, I decided to put them off too <_______<........... And I only need to build one set q=

I don't know how I always seem to do that but everytime I am looking at the AXM site I happen to be there right when something is updated.
