Hi STRYCKER, don't forget to use English on this board for all communications (unless the member is French speaking, like me). You can use Google translation to do so.Bonjour, je dois reconnaître que vous êtes un Maître en la matière.
Here's your answer in English: "Hello, I must recognize that you are a master in the field"
So most of this week was spent preparing the finished parts for transport...which meant building dollies and trollies etc. I Just ran out of space to continue building this thing and needed to shift everything.
Of course, working on an island, on the Thames, in London, meant it all goes by boat...
Here's the bottom wing
and here it is ready for loading
So now it's on to all the engines, the other 2 wings and the landing gear

oh wow, I'm really loving the result so far, and it's really impressive and cool to also see how you got it out of there, I had no idea you were in England, even less so that you were on an island! Very cool to see, the scale is very impressive next to the boat and next to the human figure next to it!
great job as usual

Incredible
This is so epic! You've made incredible progress. What's left? The engines? I'm going to miss these weekly updates when you're done. What's next, a life-size Star Destroyer? Perhaps a Death Star?
You, sir, are a LEGEND!!!

OK, it's engine time for the next few weeks, so I am gonna build one of each to test out the method and work out all the different components needed and then repeat the whole process 3 more times...
Obviously they will all get some weathering and a bit more detailing
Engine...finished
Afterburner...need to insert into engine and create support structure
Turbine...WIP

Unreal work!
It's going to be phenomenal when it's all put together! So exciting!

OK another week has passed, and that means wall to wall engines. Just about finished the main Saturn V type...2 standard and 2 with doors for landing gear.
Sorted out the code for a pulsating lighting effect for the Phantom Afterburners;
and got the first Wing Turbine done;
