Man that looks REALLY cool...except..and I hate doing this but...the seams in the cardboard tube are showing through, making it look like cardboard tubes glued to cool bitz.
Do you have some texture you can cover it up with? Maybe even just wrap them in paper or something? I know that sucks, especially since you just painted it.

Exactly the same observation when I was looking at it.
That said, a photographic closeup is going to be much less forgiving than the naked eye on a tabletop. The paintjob is stunning, perfect texture and coloring.
Maybe a work-intensive spiral staircase on the seamline? That shouldn't take too long to do... note the sarcasm. It's a pain. But your work is so very good and your skill is quite evident, if you want to cover up those seams you could do so very effectively.

I am done i know you can see the spiral but I gotta say I don't mind. I am happy to have another awesome piece done. Also this piece was a spur of the moment idea made with left over bits. I had fun making it, but now it is time for the Capitol building

the capitol!?

The USS Orinoco was a Federation Danube-class runabout that was in service with Starfleet in the late 24th century, attached to Deep Space 9. It was outfitted with a sensor pod.

Please don't get me wrong, I think it is an awesome terrain piece. I'm sorry for mentioning it. Didnt mean to hurt your feelings.

The silo's are cool. My only gripe is with the goo leaks. The leaks are 1/1 instead of 1/+-35, that knocks me right out of the illusion.

Just messing around to see how easy this is
I can tell you it was very easy! It is a light in the Capitol Building to shine down on the space marine statue. I will be doing more lighting projects now that I see how easy it was.

Wow, the paintjob on the cathedral is looking awesome. Is that top part finished, or will you be doing more to it?
Up close it looks brilliant, but I think it might look a bit plain from a distance when its such a large area.
Great work though, I'm loving it
