A day or two back the mail dropped off the 3-D “printed” version of the 1/288 Orion Battleship. Since then I’ve been busily sanding, filling and polishing. The engineering of it turns out to have *largely* been spot-on, although I did model a few small areas that when printed were just too thin. Not to worry, revising these blips won’t take too long.
The turret turned out surprisingly well. I’m have photos in a day or two.
If you want the details on jsut what the Orion Battleship was, see HERE.

Awesome – are we still looking at a late year release? Can’t wait for Michael to follow (and save my money to get them both)
Congrats btw on the good Ares test – great smoke and fire.

So far as I’m aware. I should wrap up with my post-processing of the parts in a few days, at which point it will be out of my hands.
