Thanks Dave! Glad you like it!...

Great Progress Dennis! Real Nice Work...

EGG FINS! I cut a Fin Shape from sheet plastic... After I Shaped and Sanded the Fin, I glued it in place with Zap-A-Gap. After some more sanding I applied some Filler/Primer. This helped the smooth out rough spots. Rear View! More Coming...

BIG PIPES! I cut 4 lengths of Aluminum Tubing for exhaust pipes. I cleaned and sanded the ends and glued them in place with Zap-A-Gap. I painted the insides with Flat Black and sanded the ends smooth again. Almost Finished...

EGGS WITH LEGS!!! I cleaned up the Legs from the UFO and Test Fit them in the Slots. They fit pretty good, now where is that glue... Here are the Legs glued in place... Here is the Egg on its Legs! A little more putty & primer, and we will be ready for paint! More Coming...

Thanks Pat!

WHICH CAME FIRST? Dolores found some Plastic Eggs at the store for me so...it looks like we are going to have a little Romulan Egg Robot! I roughed up the Egg surface and gluing area with sandpaper and glued it together with Zap-A-Gap. Then I applied some putty. Here is the Egg after some Sanding and Priming... I am going to add "Legs" from the Alpha Centari UFO Kit. I traced the Legs-Mounting Slots from the bottom of the UFO. Then I used a small drill bit in the Dremel Tool to make the Mounting Slots. More Coming...

Thanks Carl! So glad you are enjoying the build, me too...

Thanks for the kind words Tom!

Thanks Ville! No plans for straps...

GLASS & CHROME! I installed The Rear Underbody along with 3 pairs of Diamond 20's Wheels & Tires and the Silhouette Exhaust Pipes! I had to Modify the rear of the Bubble Top so it would fit. I used Formula 560 White Glue to glue the Bubble Top in place and the bottle to hold it flat while it dries. Here is the Top in place! The next photos of the USA-1 Transporter will be the Finished Photos, it is Done!!! More Coming...

IT CRACKED!!! I painted a Very Heavy coat of White Acrylic Paint on the base and then put it out in the sunshine to dry out. It dried out Real Good! The White Paint Cracked all over the Base, giving it a very Natural Dirt-Like appearance. After the Base was dry I sprayed it with 3 different shades of Brown. I will be adding Details later...

Thanks Tim! Glad you like it...

IRON BIRD BASE! I decided I wanted a different shape for the Raptor Base, so I glued 2 Star Wars-Pod Racer Bases together... I covered the base with Paper Mache. You just mix White Glue with water and coat pieces of newspaper with the mixture. Then you just apply the wet paper to the base. You can build it up in layers or even rough shapes. Next I sprinkled Sand over the Wet Paper Mache. This gave me a Real Nice Texture on the Base. Then I put the Base out in the Hot Sun for a few hours to dry. More Coming...
