I'll be using two sacrificial engines, to make one modified engine from. I can make cuts as-needed and preserving relevant detail. What is lost I can keep on the adjoining piece. The cuts won't be simple chops - I'm going to have to stair-step the one at the front, almost certainly.

Once I've made a normal 15-box engine with the "greeblies" on the bottom (and an 18-point fast one just like it), I'll cast myself a small number of copies to allow conversion of my excess BC saucers into destroyers.

Did you ever cast those modified engines?

Not yet.

I only have limited hobby time and Tenneshington has been dominating it.

I still have considerable work to do to get my workshop set up, once I have time. When I have a decent place to work, then the models shall flow.

Got my APTs in yesterday.
They were very clean sculpts. Got them cleaned, prepped, primed in less than 30 minutes total.
Two have been moved onto the work bench for a priority project [gave myself a one week time limit - so lets see how that works!) while the other two APTS, 5 large freighters, and 7 small freighters are "in the queue"

Yeah, I got my APTs and additional large freighters, yesterday too.

Couldn't do more than give 'em a quick once over, update my inventory spreadsheet, and store them away.
