Hello Konstantine,
great to see how you are detailing the ML sides, which comes along nicely so far and reminds me of my MLP.

Thanks Manfred. I got the idea from seeing your model.

Yep I know, then we have the same feeling for detailling the structures.
For the realistic design of the surface texture of David Maier's paper kits one have to make him a compliment. That looks really great and was crucial for my concept in project planning, to be able to refine this by setting up 3D details even further, which I'm also afterwards still completely satisfied.

Yes I completely agree with you. The textures are very realistic, which is a big help in the building process.

Ill post an update tomorrow or Friday. I have also started figuring out how to go about with the hold downs.

Finally an update! Sorry for the delay, but school kind of got in the way. I started making some more piping for the sides, but they are not finished. I also built the hold down arms but I used the ones from the 1:70 kit because I liked them better than the ones that came with this one. I will say though that at 1:144 scale they were a challenge to build. I also designed some triangular parts which I glued onto the back of two of the hold downs and will do to the other two later. Feel free to PM me if anyone wants the parts.

Very nice and on my to build list (which keeps getting longer) Thanks for sharing and I would be interested in those parts for my build. I have this thing for detailing that I guess is a carry over from my plastic-resin days.

Finally an update. Sorry it took so long. The subsequent updates will be more frequent. I finished lining the blast chamber with the wooden sticks and I also finished the small cardstock triangles on the hold downs. The last things I worked on were the piping. Now I have begun adding the pipping to the blast chamber.

Hello Konstantine,
great, these tiny details make the MLP more realistic.
