Plug It In! I drilled the 2 Holes in the rear/center of the Raider's underside. The small Hole at the rear is for the 3rd Strobe Light. The Larger Hole to the left is for an AC Power Plug. Here is the inside view. The Strobe Wires will have to split to go around the post. I trimmed away part of the inside edge of the Rear Cap to clear the 3rd Strobe Wires. More Coming...

Shinny & Dull... Earlier I sprayed the VooDoo Raider all over with Testors Dullcote to seal in the Acrylic paints and give it a Finished Look. There are 2 Cylon Decals that go on the Wings. Decals don't work well on Dull surfaces, so I sprayed the Wings with a quick coat of Glosscote. Then I applied the Decals on the dry Shinny Wings. After the Decals dried I sprayed on a couple coats of Dullcote. More Coming...

Drilling Some Holes! First I drilled out the ends of the Laser Cannons. Then I drilled a Hole in the end of each top side of the Wing as shown, for Strobe Light Wires.. Next I drilled a Hole in each side of the under Body to match the Wing Holes I just made. Then I drilled a Hole in the underside of each Wing, for the Strobe Lights. More Coming...

Holes For Light! I opened up these 2 Holes in the rear of the Body with a reamer, for the Pulsing Engine Lights. Next I drilled these 2 Holes, in the Front Bulkhead, for the Headlights. I drill the Holes just large enough to fit the LEDs in snugly. Then I drilled these 2 Holes in the Amidships Housings, for Bright Yellow Lights. More Coming...

Wings! First I glued the Body halves together. Next I filled the openings on the ends with scrap plastic. Then I sanded down the ends of the Body and Wings with a big sanding block, to make flat areas for gluing the Wings to. Using Zap-A-Gap, I glued the Wings flush along the Top Edge and the Front. The 2 Body Parts stick out way past the Wings. So I marked them for cutting. Then I cut off the excess Body Parts with a Cut-Off Wheel. More Coming...

It's Flying! I replaced the stock set up for the mount and glued in a piece of tubing just large enough fit a 1/4" Clear Plastic Rod. Here is the inside shot. Later, I glued a piece of plastic to cover the end of the tube. Now Raider Vette can be mounted up on the clear rod, flying above the base. More Coming...

Cylon Stylin'... This part normally fits on the front of the Cylon Raider. I am cutting this Cylon Part in half and using part for the New Front Grill and the other part for a Digital Display in the Interior. After a little trimming the Cylon Part fits right inside of the Corvette Nose. More Coming...
