Wow a reply from the inquisitor himself, I'm truly honored.

As I wanted this to look as close to the original as possible at this time I cheated and used Landraider parts for my sponsons. My son built the Landraider sans sponsons and sold it so the parts were free and you can't beat that.

A little problem crept up in that the Met-all Epoxy does not take readily to plastic adhesive. the white sheet styrene armor plates kept falling off. I solved this by using pins to simulate rivets to anchor the plates.

Sorry for so many similar shots, Judging by the gaps in the image count there should be more construction detailing. I'll try to do a better job documenting my next construction project.
