Same thing I said on Facebook - great work, Kent!

Not bad. From five feet away during game-play, it probably looks great. But up close, and I hate to nit-pick (because I could never do nearly as good of a job), there are some rough edges I'd love to see filed down just a tab bit more.

Thanks Will! I don't think there'll be a next time but if there is, I might try your idea with completely scratch building the hull instead of building on the D6.

Did you strip it and re-paint after the cleanup work?

Nope. Managed to isolate the work to just the areas that needed some filing without wrecking the paint job around it. The finish was just done with a paint brush, playing around with the two colours I used to make it look like nothing was done.

Yes, much better. Before the face where the boom commented was a little rough, and the right "shoulder" looked like they ran into the hanger door going into Starbase docking. Did they fire the helmsman, or fire AT him for that accident???
