Mass Effect Normandy
Just curious if anyone has attempted to build either of the 2 ships?
...the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few...or the one...

Not to plug Ed's models for him...

I've gotten his SR-1 and it's a nice kit. Painting has always been my weakest skill, and that's what is delaying my completing this model. When he has the SR-2 kitted, I'll likely get that as well. Unless I get all crazy and just scratchbuild one...modelnutz wrote:The kit I (still) have available is the SR-1 Normandy.
The subject of the post is the SR-2.
Patterns are being created ( slowly ) for a 16 inch ( approx. ) SR-2.
PM me with your E-Mail and I'll shoot you a pic of the kit parts.

How do you create the patterns for your kits - I guess you would be using a CAD app to actually draw it, but how do you determine measurements?
I'm lucky because I'm using a scaled plan drawing that gives me four different views of the ship, I've blown the plan up to A2 size which will give a total length of 530mm. Not too big and not too small for my sausage like fingers![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_cheesygrin.gif)

There, now it's all out in the open
The 1:35 mako will be available end of July..test castings have been done on all parts but the hull and the gun (still a bit of tweeking to be done on those 2 parts ) ..the SR-1 kit is now ( still ) available...and the SR-2 is coming soon(ish).
From the looks of the test pieces...it's gonna be a "Hum-Dinger" !
After that...Hmm....all I'll say is....keep watching kiddies...there's more to come![Twisted Evil :twisted:](./images/smilies/twisted.gif)

FYI... the SR-1 kit is still available
The Mako is being cast and will be available as soon as I can get some decals run. ( Al Wong is currently working up the artwork for decals )
The 1:350 SR-2 is still an on-going project I'm hoping to have available before end of the year ( stay tuned for more )
