Built and installed each of the Blast Shields over the front platforms and added a few photo etched railings.
I have a lot of extra railing for around the edge of the top deck but they won't be added until the very end of the build. |

Looks good! The railings really help make the look.

However, the railings seem to be oversized to me and should be approx. 7 mm high at 1:144, as one can also see in David Maier's Paper Kit.

Looks great so far. That kit looks like a lot of work!
I have Alphonso's MLP and crawler printed, but... life and stuff. I'll be watching your progress, keep it up! |

Built the 6 Pedestals, Blast Deflectors and am now working on the 2 Tail Service Masts.
One has been built and dry fitted and I'll start on the 2nd one soon. It's actually a lot more intricate than it looks .... |

Pretty much done now with my Space Shuttle MLP .... apart from some minor tidying up.
I thought I'd also have a bit of fun and create a diorama I'm calling "Preparing the pad...". A name for the Orbiter is also to be decided on, but we can't rush these things ..... |

Just "venting" some ideas while I'm waiting on the "Challenger" livery from the US.......
I want to do something a bit different from a full on launch so I thought about the venting coolant, etc. you always see before a launch. This is my Non-OH&S diorama cause' I don't think it'd be too safe for the ground crews on the platform at the moment .............. |
