Bought the donor kit today, a Revell Bismarck.
The "Frank n' Furter" is the lead space Battleship in its class of Frank n'Furter Space Battleshiops....others include the "Magenta", the "Riff Raff", the "Janet Weiss", the "Brad Majors" and the "Columbia".
Power is provided by a strange alien power source involving what looks like giant pearl-coloured globes.
There will of course, be a sonic transducer.

After the current "White Raven" build, I'll be getting on with this.
Mostly black of course, but heavily weathered with some interesting features.

"Frank n'Furter" is based on the planet Transexual in the galaxy of Transylvania. :drink: :party: :party:

Bought another Bismarck (ie Frank N'Furter class space battleship) today....MZ Derby.
It'll be the "Magenta".

Fishnetting needs to figure in some way.....same as feathers. :drink: ;D :party:

LMFAO -  ;D ;D ;D

You could probably do fishnet cammo the way custom bike painters used to do lace-effect. Hold a piece of lace/fishnet across the piece and spray through it, using it as a mask. Of course, you might need to scale the fishnet down a bit, but it's a simple pattern: orange net?

So HOW do you paint a corset onto a battleship? Are the suspendr clips used as anchoer or mooring points? enquiring minds wish to be enlightened.. :blink: :bow: :bow:

Can't sleep, bunged up, so built the hull of the "Frank N' Furter".

This I have got to see...
Especially the engineering section.  I am very curious to see how this "Pelvic thrust" works when used with the "Timewarp engines".
:lol: :lol:

We need pics of the lab, so we can see what's on the slab.

I assume this vessel is equipped with jump engines?

But then, it would only be able to go to the left? Correct ?

Radish

I'll take some pictures when Mid returns from London (Monday night) and then post them around....and possibly here too lol.
Not a lot done today....2 hours kip last night, lousy cold, and grandchild sitting all day. I feel crap.

But, the exhaust system is in place, the hull has been adjusted for this to fit (it does....slips in dead easy lol), and the superstructure could well receive a radical rebuild/arrangement.
Onwards, with a jump to the left. :thumbsup:

Not to be a JMN-type, but I would point out that a 'jump to the left' is a well documented Transylvanian manuever. There's nothing to stop it going both ways... :)

Rest assured the back story will have full Rocky Horror detail.

Also, the main superstructure is fixed and , yes, it's been radically changed. :drink:
