    Would have been great if Trumpeter made all the hatches separate pieces for static displays.

    The two forward missile hatches were separate from the rest which were engraved. After glueing the two hatches flush with the deck I was compelled to re-scribe the hatch outline, which left a scared deck needing fill. Also, I actually drilled vent holes atop each missile hatch as that would be better looking than the lightly engraved circles provided on the kit part. Some of those needed filling. So... I said, what the hell, and puttied all the hatches for symmetries sake.

    Steve Reichmuth is lead on this project and informs me that the 3D printed hull master is in work. I'll reduce that, when it arrives, to tooling from which I'll produce 'kits for Steve, the 3D printer guy, myself and a few of my buddies. You're not one of my buddies? Here's a message from my buddy, Venom:
