Here is the updated second page. I removed the thick black outline because I don't think it helps for this part. I added some lines to guide the scoring. The outside two are just for the "wing" tabs. Don't forget the score line in the middle of the model. I don't know if it is easier/better to do that big horizontal fold first or last.

Even the glider isn't that difficult, except for getting the wings glued on, and that is just a matter of finding things to prop under it while it dries Just a random thought: could you design a display stand that would also be a wing supporting structure during the build?

Well, I picked it up with an eye to how I might do that, following your suggestion. Just shows how much I know about aerodynamics. This little thing is really well balanced and by adding a bit of extra glue where I thought things would be weak, it is actually pretty solid. I had to try it. I didn't fling it, but gently sort of scooped it forward as I released. It gently landed on its feet. Color me surprised
I can't really picture a display stand, though. I'll have to give it some thought

I've got something to add, I may need a day or two after the new year to get it in. I'll see what I can do

We have a long-standing non-written rule -- if folks need a few days, give it to them.
Well, not so much of a hard-fast rule, but a squishy guideline

It took some doing but I got the first page all inside the cutting area. On the second page I included the smaller version of the ship but I removed the "extra" nacel from Shep's original version.

You know B/W isn't so bad, maybe a coffee wash would make it look more like linen. Good job buddy

These are my ships. Maybe I'll add another one or two, but I'm not sure that time permits.

I didn't change anything that would show up in the pictures. The picture I posted already is the best I have.

Excellent, do you have a final build pic of them? Not of the final models. I'm working on them. By the way, I'll change the postimage link with the full resolution images.

I know we aren't closing this on the 31st, but on the projects, about how much time will we need for the extension?
Starting the week of the 4th, I will have residual commissions coming in, and the AEP commissions will start coming in, so I may be able to find a printer next week. I'd like to have the basic shallow roof version of the Dario Building in this Hoard, with the steep-roof version with the extras in the Procrastinators Hoard. If I build this gray scale, I can use Gimp to lay the textures over my build photo to create a 'render' sort of. I could have that done by the 10th, if that works for everyone. Or we can make it longer, if you need it

I'd love it if we took the weekend to finish up, call it done next Monday the 4th. It's okay if the Procrastinators Hoard starts late.

I would love to see even more for the Tribute Hoard, but even if it is finished for the Procrastinators Hoard, it is still a tribute to Shep.
