234/4. Fourth and fifth day.

Continued to work with the armored car. Now it looks like this, given that most of the parts are not glued. My first thought when I put half of the case and put it on wheels - "I collect lunar rover!" Generally docking cabin and top of the machine sparked criticism.


I would also like to say about the wheel - Study tread chic. But their assembly took a long time due to the fact that the wheel is composed of 9 items each.

In general - the interior is finished. Completed the batteries, which greatly hinder the work, but for then it all went like clockwork. Tomorrow is likely primed by filling an empty box of personal belongings of the crew. Vision devices left in working order.




Censure sparked docking shutters and housing. Usually working closely with each other Dragon and Voyager screwed up. When setting small blinds climbs a big enough gap. Had to build a plastic sheet.

234/4. Sixth and seventh day.

Have not been updated on the resulting flu. Work hard, shake hands, so the work went very slowly.

So now we have the following. Painted in basic colors interior, covered with a glossy varnish and prepared for weathering.





On the dashboard applied decals

As has already been said about the connection body halves - decided to show - so that's out here slit. Will have to sweat under gluing.

Beautiful work on the interior - I hope you don't run into too many problems closing that hull gap!

Mine is still stalled for that very reason.
Good luck and keep pressing on.
