Minos project

Here is a Wip picture of chuckaroobob's Minos freighter. I am building it for him to use in a proposed Gallipoli beach assualt game and for use in pulp games. I have the keel and more of the bulkheads assembled but no pictures currently. I am held up in the assembly process by all the metal I am cleaning up and then painting. Until I get them done I can't put the sides on because the bits have to be glued on before assembly.

Dude! It looks like paper glued to cardboard! The passengers (whom I'm not painting yet) are clammoring for the sea trials to start!

I am working on the doors now. I have to melt some plastic sprue to make pins for the hinges. I still need to paint all the portholes too.

Make pins for the hinges? Are you sure you're not going off the deep end? I don't expect the thing to actually float, you know! :)

If the doors don't have the pins in the hinges then they will not open. The doors must open.
