(Sorry, you've probably been asked this loads of times ) I hope the new owner appreciates the work that has gone into this beauty. It's very simple @ColletArrow and for this project i got a budget for build her at the scale around the 1/50 to 1/60 and the size for the trans black windows was definite the scale at the blueprints from the yard. Because this ship is still under construction and don't got a extra reverence from real pictures and have to work with the renders they give me. The client gives me so tide deadline and from start to a finished model in 8 weeks and now after 6 weeks i am almost ready and i am glad that i never missed a deadline, but it's was a hell of a job. For the building the model in Lego there was no time to build first a digital model and than in real brick and started directly in real bricks. I have build here over the blueprints in live size printed scale and can see that i am with a marching between a couple of millimeters of the drawings. The client have seen every step on the build and is so thrill, that he can't wait for the delivery on her. Quote

The last 9 weeks if have ordered more the 125K of parts, so 15K for this model was not much of a problem. The stickers that Jaap have made for me, where thick chromed stickers and not glossy silver. It was a hell of a job to applied them because of the size and i was amazed that his cutting machines can cut stickers to a hairline thick. Quote

Those stickers look really great, I'm very impressed with the amount of "resolution" they have. Congratulations on finishing the build, it looks beautiful. Quote

efferman Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Thats strange, your model looks better than the real thing. Quote
Dafgek81 Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 maybe a stupid question, but what and where is BMA, it's obviously a convention of some sort. Quote
