We just popped some pics in the build gallery. The #1 project was to get our work areas sorted out. We sorta fell back into the hobby without much prep and we really weren't organized about it. My downstairs workbench was a mess after transitioning from plastic modeling to 1/6th scale WW2 figure work to scale dinosaurs (and probably a few things in between). In the end it was optimized for one thing: chaos. Meanwhile Deb didn't have a work bench set up, so she claimed the kitchen table, which had to get periodically "set aside" for that pesky human activity known as "eating". So we were on different floors, sharing tools, and neither of us had an ideal workspace, so once the season ended that became out priority.
We finally got things finished to the point we could resume building in the first week of January and we're both building like demons. My pre-season build list is subject to change on whim, but this is the current lineup:
- Launch Pad Perseus (done and in finishing)
- Estes Fusion X-25 (done and in finishing)
- Estes Jayhawk (in progress)
- Zvezdotchka ACM (in progress)
- Estes Antar
- Estes Space Transporter America
- Estes Rigel 3 (clone)
- Estes Gemini Titan refit (using all new markings from Stickershock23, et al)
Deb's list is similarly in flux, but looks kinda like this:
- Estes Curvilinear (in progress)
- Estes Lynx (in progress)
- Fliskits Overdrive (in progress)
- Zvezdotchka ACM (in progress)
- Estes Skywriter (in progress)
- Semroc Taurus
- Estes Twin Factor (done steampunk style)
- Estes Solar Flare
- Estes Quinstar
- Starship Vega (clone)
- Apogee Flying Machine
