Building the GCU Sokol, Part 3
Part One | Part Two
UPDATE: I did a quick post a while back on framing out the main decks of the GCU Sokol.
Over the holiday break I’ve started working on the huge model again. This time I framed up the head of the starship. Not the toilet, the front section, where the bridge is located. Alliance starships [...]
