Firefly

Post by Desertrat99 »

Calling the Firefly finally done.

It started out with a scratch built lower hull to correct stretched Sherman dimensions. Lower was made out of Lexan (polycarbonate sheet). Rest of the kit was from Dean Godin Firefly kit.
The tulip rockets were 3D printed.

Nice to see proper Firefly VC. Good looking stowage although the shovel is not fixed in any way and would fall in reality ;)

Holy Schlamoli! Is that one loaded with goodies! It must have been fun adding all that materiel. (Kaczor, I'd bet the shovel is not fastened down so that it's easier for an American GI to steal. :haha:)
