AXM Shuttle Builds

Been continuing with the AXM builds. STS-50 with Spacehab, and STS-130 with Node 3 and Cupola. STS-130 is going up to the school library to be displayed next to an ISS model.

Payloads are fun, but challenging. Still having a bit of difficulty closing the front of the OMS pods, but I'm getting better.

Looking very nice and clean.Those pods are tricky but you could try and use a embossing ball-on-a-stick, like these ones. They can be helpful in pre-shaping rounded forms and after glueing to shape the glue strip in the right form.
