Starfighter Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 The P-16 files are almost ready to be 3D printed. Most details have been added, just a few small things are left to be done.

Tony T Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Ben, your stuff never ceases to AMAZE me! What next? A Nimitz class carrier?! Tony Starfighter and ClumsyDude 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClumsyDude Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Amazing ... reckon you should totally do a Nimitz class carrier in 1/32, it would only be 10m/30ft long. You already have the elevator and the makings of an air wing! You're gonna need a bigger house ... Jim Starfighter and A-10LOADER 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfighter Posted April 24, 2017 Author Share Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) An Austrian friend of mine is building a 48th scale CVN-65 - with working elevators, blast shields etc. It's around 7m long... probably one of the world's most impressive models once it's finished in 20 years or so. If I'd build a 32nd scale carrier, I'd not only need a new house, I'd need a new girlfriend too! I'm thinking about some smaller sections though. I think I'll stick with CV-63 - for some strange reason, I have a very soft spot for the Kitty Hawk. Edited April 24, 2017 by Starfighter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel_W Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Ben Your EA-6B was one of the 1st builds I read through when I joined LSP. Your scratch building skills just left me speachless. Honestly, I've never seen work on your level before. And now scratch building via 3D CAD deck vehicles. Looking forward to your next update on the Grayhound as well as your next vehicle.

Starfighter Posted May 4, 2017 Author Share Posted May 4, 2017 Got the first P-16 parts yesterday and coudn't resist to assemble the main components. I'll take care of the smaller parts later today. I am pretty happy with the outcome so far - assembly works fine already. I will rework some details and have new parts printed later on. These are the early (10 wheel nut) wheels. These are the later (5 wheel nut) wheels. Details came out rather nicely. What do you think? Do you like it so far?

Starfighter Posted May 4, 2017 Author Share Posted May 4, 2017 I do like this so far. Can yo show us a parts breakdown? Thank you. Sincerely, Mark I will take a photo of the individual parts later today. The CAD screenshots already give you an idea - each individual part has a different colour.

Guest Peterpools Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Ben Amazing work and truly jealous of a skill I have no clue on how to do. Keep 'em coming Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfighter Posted May 11, 2017 Author Share Posted May 11, 2017 Wow, I just realize how bad these pics actually are... anyway, just to keep you posted - the P-16 now has steerable front wheels.
