Wraith Dart - Jan 13 2008
To strengthen the front I have added a brass rod the front. For no I will still keep the strip of styrene below
The length of the brass rod is how long the front end will be. It is quite thin here so I may have to use some other material to add the detail here as the bondo may not be strong enough when it is that thin
Added a bunch of rear cross sections. There are about 3 more left
Rear view. For some reason it looks like an face hugger from Aliens
Added Styrofoam inserts to save on bondo
Underside
Front section gets a first coat of bondo
I do a bit of carving on the rear section with a motor tool. Well this thing is about 15 inches long and is getting bulky to transport. I may have to construct a special case for it so it doesn't get damaged when I move it around. Normally it would not go out the door but I have taken it to several club meetings recently which highlighted the fact that I need to make some sort of case for it.
