Crows Nest Models' Icarus

By Mark Myers

 

On the large original ICARUS I did the following:

  • I corrected the floor beneath the escape hatch as it was too narrow to allow the hatch to work
  • I fashioned a hinge on the rear hatch so it can be opened and closed
  • I made the atmospheric analyzer raise and lower
  • I adjusted the interior cabin lighting to light the interior evenly
  • I researched the colors to get the model screen accurate and I custom built the display stand and stained it.

    On the smaller Escape ship I made the hatch open and lock into place, Made the Atmospheric analyzer raise and lower, custom built and stained the base. I also painted and detailed all the figures.
