jkk643 Posted April 25, 2020 Posted April 25, 2020 The "neck" leading up to the bridges and the engine details are great so far! Quote
Wediddy Posted May 15, 2020 Posted May 15, 2020 (edited) Any chance you could post a WIP parts list so I can start gathering the pieces for this beauty? will definitely purchase instructions once ready. Made this account just to ask this question lol Edited May 15, 2020 by Wediddy Quote
TwoSolitudes Posted May 19, 2020 Posted May 19, 2020 Based on the images you posted so far it's, an automatic purchase of instructions here as well. Quote
thire5 Posted May 24, 2020 Author Posted May 24, 2020 Thank you for comments! Small update - fixed the issues with bridge discussed above^ - the whole "wing" section is way more complicated that I thought, I had to rebuild the side "flaps" maybe 5 times and I still haven't properly attached those around the hangar. Ideally, each section of side "flaps" would be attached with two small ball joins to make it stable. Quote

Looking forward to the final result Quote
CT-1119 Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 This MOC is truly awesome and I'm really looking forward to when the instructions will be available. I just want to share an idea I have, but i understand if it is too hard to implement. What if the long red strip in the front actually was able to slid open just like in the movies, that would be totally awesome. Im thinking that they sit on some technic hinges that almost swing open like a bus door, but that's just my idea and I'm sure there's other better mechanics that would work in this situation. Good luck with the MOC ;) Quote

Good luck with the MOC ;) That was actually my plan. The main hangar doors will be openable but unfortunately I was not able to install any slide door mechanism, there is not enough space (should have built the model 1,5x bigger :D ). The way to open it will be just simply unattach each door part and attach/clip them to another marked place Quote

Wediddy Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 Keep it up and thanks for the updates!! Been following this post for the past year, excited to see you are almost complete! Quote

Tom_Brick Posted May 25, 2021 Posted May 25, 2021 All around a great job. Though despite all the fantastic details you've added over time, the engine assembly is probably still my favourite part. Quote
Stuartn Posted May 25, 2021 Posted May 25, 2021 That is an incredible MOC, the angles and shaping is perfect, and the overall level of detail is magnificent - well done Quote
Evergreen Posted May 26, 2021 Posted May 26, 2021 Wow. Fantastic model! Definitely the best Venator MOC out there. Looking forward to the instructions! Quote
