Quick update. Not much work has been getting done, due to some other hobbies intruding into my modeling time.
But today I worked on the top a bit more. Trimming, filing, sanding, etc… Still want to scribe a few of the short strips.
I did mess one step up. After going back and rereading Steve G’s instructions, I realized I shouldn’t have put strips on the top. Just got ahead of myself. My bad. I think I can make it work out okay this time. Lesson learned, and for the next one, I’ll go with paint for the seam lines. It should be more in scale that way.
