So I started with some ammo drums for the Light-AA's
very simple. Just pieces of tube and some pc discs
Then I built some frames that will hold them in place
And mounted them on the inside of the plates
Then I started to build some additional boxes for (whatever) storage
Also very simple constructions, but with some detaling
and mounted these on the inside too
In addition I built a very simple ammo hatch for the crane. And a banister so noone would fall into there when the hatch is open ;-)
(Not that it opens in the model)
Last not least I build a ventilation hatch. Several strips of thin pc glued on top of each other, so that they are at a slight angle, and a simple frame around it
Then some pieces for the frames top (corners cut in a neat 45° angle)
And glued it all together and added rivets
This together with some cables on the ground (note the two thick grey ones leading to the Lasguns under the nose as power supply) give a nice impression I think :)
Tonight I will start working on some of the crew members - I will try to resemble the figures I had drawn for the uniform color test.
Cheers
