Oops, the first pic is not a progres pic above, it was supposed to be this one:

It's like being a reenactor, participating in the Battle of Shiloh, isn't it? Only you're one of those unlucky sods who "dies" every time.

Ha, yes, I have suffered a few grotesque detahs on this build!

Luckily, ths Shi...loh is just about done. I have left off the taller antennaes and the ones on the stern for the moment so her owner can look her over and tell me if any changes are needed that will be easier to do without the antennaes all over the place, but other than that, she should be good to go. FINALLY!

This build was not "hard" per-se, certainly well within my skills, but it was just frustrating and not much fun, hence the reason it took me roughly 3 months to do it rather than the 1 month or so that it really should have. I was just not motivated to work on it, so most of the time I had to force myself, which greatly slows my progress.


In one picture, you can see the hangar open, but it is actually closed, I just had not installed the doors before I took the pictures.

Thanks Jim!

Well folks, Shiloh is done. Finally.

Not much more to say about her, other than I am very very happy to have this particular ahem, "kit" off of my workbench!
