Monitor in miniature

I'm glad the Lyran NCA survived the casters. I always get nervous when I split one down the middle and pin/fill.
Also glad we have so many new things coming out

I've done pin jobs, but only for gaming/display. I'm about to attempt my first "real" pin/fill job on an F-5W and HF-5 (with hopes of them maybe being masters), so wish me luck.

I did the same with the Orion DN master I shipped a few weeks ago.

I've performed that operation many times for one-off personal models, but this was the first time I've split / pinned ( across the width, rather than down the length) of one with the intentions of it being spin-castable afterwards.

Good luck, Will - wish me the same.

Absolutely - good luck to you.

I just got back from Origins and while there, I picked up 5 of the Monitors and (even though I may be biased) they look awesome. I eventually want one in every Empires livery, but I didn't want to hog the whole Origins stock for myself, so I'll get more later.

Photos should be up in a week or so.
