Hello. New guy here. Most of you know me from other boards.

Someone named 'J' asked me to post images of the Flat Top and Mining Ship kits.

Here you go!

Welcome! Very nice work.

Film can ship....ooooooo! Er, how hard is it to build for utter complete novices? Do you think you might do a colonial movers ship (or any of the other fleet ships besides these two)?

D'Oh! Nevermind! Just checked your site and saw that both the Flattop and Mineral Ship are for sale - and ordered to Flattops and one Mineral Ship.

The Flat Top is a two-piece kit. If you can't glue one the the other, well....

The Mining ship is more complicated but still build-able for a novice (when I build a master, I keep this in mind).

Thanks for asking about it.

Thanks for coming. Do you plan on making any larger scale models?

Yo Rob. Welcome

Question- When working with CGI like I do, how do you glue the Flat Top two piece together?

You have to download the patch # 395 for the gig 752. Everyone knows that.

I ordered two of the Flattops and one each of the Mineral Ships. I'll post mini-previews with pics once I have them in-hand.

Also, Rob's got the Celestra/Electronics Ship in-work, as well as the Prison Barge/Astral Queen!
