Oh yes and the turrets rotate.

It’s a slow work in progress but I will keep you updated as it comes along.

Most of the main fuselage is done now I have to work on the engines. 

Great job!  I would love to see pics of the process.  Keep up the good work!  

Also, what did you use for gun barrels?

Now that is a thing of beauty.

Thanks guys! The large turrets are made from sheet styrene and styrene rod. The small ones are made from styrene tubing and a small wire (paperclip) inserted into the tube.  

do you take commissions or anything like that?  I'd love to create stats and bases for capital ships and play fleet battles with my friends.  Great work by the way, looks great.

Thanks! No one has ever asked me. I don’t think anyone would want to wait 3 to 4 months on an order. And I would not know how much I would have to charge. Of course the next one I build should take less time. I’m just now getting to the engines. I will post some pictures of them soon.

I'm stoked to see the engines, those are the best part of the blockade runners in my opinion.

The first stage of engine construction.

I test fitted the engines today. They still need a lot of work. 

it just keeps getting better and better…..great job

The engines are still a work in progress.
