Begun work on the second axis of each foot; the quadrant (Yeah I know it's a semi-circle but there ain't no word half a circle in the vein of quadrant, sextant or octant. Why is that?)

Anyway these pieces will have to each support half the weight of the model so they will have to be build strong. The internal structure is 3/8th styrene box beam material the center upright filled with scrap 2mm sheet plasticard to hold the countersunk screw I will be using for the axle.

Unbelievable work Blackadder, are you planning on adding that level of detail to the whole model? It's certainly working with your thunderhawk but this is going to be a lot bigger.

Not to turn this into a maudlin mutual admiration society but there are many things I admire about your builds first of which is the speed with which you work and second that you are not obsessive compulsive about minutia and third that you are more than likely to finish what you start.

I found them googling thunderhawk images

They were posted on 'Deviantart'

Found them again. This artist is very good. There are only a few things he could improve The tail cones are too long on the T'hawk but they are on the FW model as well.

and the head is too small on his Warhound.

But in all fascinating work. Here's his gallery:

Wonderful Links, and thanks. I think we end up in that mutual admiration conversation too often. When will we colaborate on a project, I wonder?

You are right, that head is way too small...

The rarefied atmosphere

wow, I'm impressed so much time is being spent on the parts. 9 pages of just feet. Really seems like the labour is going to be well worth it with this level of dedication.

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.

Really 9 pages of just feet? It appears the Blackadder has more of a problem than being slow.
