While waiting for one of the hottest Summer’s on record to end, I’ve been doing what I can in the morning’s or late afternoons. I’ve started to prepare some of the larger skins for the main fuselage.
I also did some proof of concept sheeting to get an idea of the accuracy of the overall shape of the fuselage – to get a sense of the shape of things to come. So far so good.
From the inside – looks quite authentic to me!
Before I permanently sheet the outside of the cockpit area, I’ll need to fit out the internals of the cockpit. That oughta be interesting…
On a final sad note, RIP Richard Hatch, immortalised as Captain Apollo. One of the great sci-fi hero’s of my childhood and played so well by Richard. From all reports, a real good bloke who genuinely made the world a better place. Certainly a big inspiration for me and this project. Gone but not forgotten…
